Serial Experiments Lain
The K.I.D. System (KIDs) was an experiment conducted about 15 years before the events in Lain by Prof. Hodgson. This device, by using something called an outer receptor, would collect and join the PSI (psychic) power of the children involved in the experiment. However, the system also killed the children involved and Hodgson ended his experiments.
Later, the KIDs technology was found by Eiri Masami and Knights, who used it for their purposes in a game called PHANTOMa.
