My story deals with a procedure that performs the erasure of memories, but I'm getting tired of referring to it as 'the memory-wipe procedure' whenever I need to mention it in the narrative. I've used 'device' a couple of times, but only as a holding name as it doesn't sound contextually correct to me. The same can be said for 'invention'. I think I'm looking for a noun to describe it, but come up blank all the time. Or failing that a product name. Problem there is that it isn't intended for the open market.
Yes, I've done this for a separate (but related) procedure, so it could get confusing. I still like the idea, though, and if they're different enough it could work. Thanks.
Blanking process, routine wiping, erasure, memory reversion, mind reset, rollbacking. I had other methods @OurJud but was trying one of them when it went off accidentally.
@SethLoki I think the acronym is the way forward, as it's short and gives me a definite 'term/name' for the device, rather than having to keep using a descriptive set of words each time.
