The caption for the acronym is "Accuracy System Image Module for Optimum
Velocity" which spells out asimov, but I was wondering if the anime producers
have revealed if the logo at the bottom was just a homage or if there is any
actual significance to the logo itself?

What is the significance of the asimov system?


ASIMOV is kind of OS (or program), used by Earth force.

It's main module to control kataphrakt as you seen in the image above. But who
develop it, what else it can do, it's still unknown (for now).

The name itself just seems to be a reference to the science fiction writer
Issac Asimov who the show draws a lot of parallels to. The team behind the
show seem to be classic sci-fi fans.

Edit: In Asimov's Short Novel series including The Caves of Steel, The Naked
Sun a detective is charged with investigating a murder of a member of a group
of people that left earth to colonize space. These select few created an
elitist society with a small but pure, healthy population. Much like American
plantation aristocracy. These colonists or "spacers" saw their distant
relatives as inferior and alien due to the lack of attention the Earthlings
give to genetic filtering or a seemingly strange social system. Auro Kumar
Datta can explain it better that me here:
