The Voice of the Grid is a disembodied female voice which provides information and instructions in the computer world. Similar Voices existed both on the original Game Grid and on Kevin Flynn's Grid.

TRON: 1982[]

In the ENCOM system, the Voice is heard conducting transport of conscripts to the light cycle grid and ordering them to return when they stage an illegal exit. It is also heard during the rezzing of the Solar Sailer, requesting sector information from program Alu and directing the hangar to prepare for the craft's departure.

TRON: Uprising[]

The Voice of the Grid in TRON: Uprising is mainly heard on the Light Rail, providing safety directions for passengers. It also speaks in General Tesler's sleeping chamber, wishing him a pleasant cycle when he wakes up.

Outside each storyline, though, the Voice also provided snippets of snarky recap commentary before many of the episodes. In several of these instances, it takes on a more sardonic, self-aware tone while discussing the characters' activities, suggesting a personality beyond that of an automated prompt.

TRON: Legacy[]

In TRON: Legacy, the Voice serves as an announcer for Disc Wars and light cycle matches.

Trivia[]

  • While uncredited in the 1982 movie, the Voice is credited as "Computer Voice" in Legacy and "Voice of the Grid" in Uprising.
  • "Program Alu," from whom the Voice requested sector information, may be a reference to the arithmetic logic unit (ALU), a combinational digital circuit which is a fundamental element of many types of computing circuits. ALUs perform arithmetic and bitwise operations on integer binary numbers.
