Data Input (データインプット, Dētainputto) is a technique used by Android 13, Android 14, and Android 15 in Dragon Ball Z: Super Android 13!.

Overview

Using 3D Scan Mode, the user analyzes their opponent to upload all the opponent's combat data, allowing them to dodge the opponent's melee attacks.

Usage

In the anime version of Super Dragon Ball Heroes during the Universal Conflict Saga, Oren uses it to avoid Hit's Time-Skip. In both the manga and anime versions of the Universe Creation Saga, it is used by Dr. W.

Film Appearances

In Dragon Ball Z: Super Android 13!, it is used by Androids 13, 14, and 15 to upload combat data for Goku, Future Trunks, and Vegeta in order to predict their movements and better evade their attacks. The Japanese version of the film also implies that Dr. Gero's Supercomputer played a huge role in uploading the combat data towards the androids (the Funimation dub instead makes it more explicit by having the Supercomputer directly speak in Gero's voice).

Video Game Appearances

• Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2
• Dragon Ball Legends

In Xenoverse 2, as part of the Extra Pack 1 DLC, it is named Data Input where it appears as a Super Skill used by Android 13. It can be obtained by the Future Warrior as a reward in Expert Mission 20: "Harbinger of Doom". When the technique is used, the user's eyes glow and they are enveloped by a field of data that moves from head to toe, which presumably represent the data being inputted.

In Dragon Ball Legends, Data Input appears as the Special Quirk Skill Arts for Android #14 (DBL14-02S) and Android #15 (DBL14-03S).
