However, due to the pandemic forcing the film to be an epilogue instead, both characters had to appear in the series first and were combined into one due to the reduced episode count.

#Knight rider theme song instrumental code
With the show being heavily-themed in technology, the name "Zero-One" was chosen as a reference to binary code and the trademark was filed on April 19, 2019. Omori came up with the idea of "Rei-One", which was a shortening of "Reiwa's first Rider." It was later pointed out that "rei" could also be read as "zero", and that there was already a superhero named Kikaider with the "01" moniker. The suit's design was completed in time before the Reiwa-era change, but a name had not been decided on yet. Producer Takahito Omori had visited several technological institutes and spoke with many professors and experts on the topic of artificial intelligence.
