Horatio Hart

Professor Horatio Hart is the mentor and serves a Zordon-like role. He was a computerized being who would provide and construct the necessary arsenal and equipment that the Troopers would use throughout the series. Hart was once a flesh and blood human who worked with Tyler Steele on the VR Trooper project. But one day, he was mortally injured by Grimlord; to keep Hart alive, Tyler virtualized his brain. In his most notable role in the episode "Good Trooper, Bad Trooper", he gave Ryan his own Virtualizer to allow Ryan to battle his evil clone after the clone stole the real Ryan's Virtualizer and took control of the Skybase. He also gave helpful tips in battle whenever the Troopers were in a jam, such as in the first episode when he informed JB he has a laser lance that could be used to defeat Kongbot.
==We Are VR Troopers!==
Prof. Horatio Hart instructed the Troopers of the upcoming Virtual Reality war, along with his mentor the General, the coach of the War Slammers. He then stated that he and Tyler shall be developing a new VR armor, which soon turned out to be Chita's own armor! While it was experimental, it was effective, even automatically activating commands with her new animalistic features. But, he and his lab were soon destroyed by Col. Icebot/Gen. Ivar as he said goodbye and good luck to the Troopers. In his honor, Tyler rebuilt the lab from its ruins, although the professor hasn't been recreated.
== Trivia ==
* In early pilot footage for the show (as seen in a VR Troopers promo featured on the Power Rangers Official Fan Club video), Hart was originally portrayed by a Caucasian male slightly resembling Albert Einstein.
* In Ikran's crossover, it was hard to let go of the professor during the Virtual Reality war. But she figured it was for the best for the series moving forward.
