==Scan==
[[File:Scan KHD.png]] {{nihongo|'''Scan'''|ライブラ|Raibura|lit. "Libra"}} is an [[ability]] introduced in ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]''. It allows the player to view a targeted enemy's HP. In ''Kingdom Hearts'' its [[AP]] Cost is 1 and in ''Kingdom Hearts II'' its AP Cost is 2. In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', Scan is found as an [[Ability Panel]]. In ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' it is a default ability.
 
While Scan is not available as an ability in ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories]]'', [[Sora]] is automatically equipped with its effect.
 
In ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded'', Scan is also used to detect the backdoors that lead to [[System Sector]]s. Scan can be leveled up to LV 4 by linking more Bonus Boosters to CPUs. With each upgrade of the ability, Data-Sora's Backdoor Sensor is made more precise<!--the blinking lights have more gradients, don't know how to explain this-->, and previously inaccessible backdoors are able to be found.

Lock-On is a targeting mechanism in the Kingdom Hearts series, present in all installments except the original Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories and the original Kingdom Hearts coded. While the player will automatically attack the closest available target, Lock-On allows the player to permanently target a single enemy or attackable object, typically signified by the tan targeting reticule turning blue. While locked on to an enemy or an object, the camera will automatically move to follow the target. In Kingdom Hearts Re:coded, while in side-scrolling areas, Data-Sora can lock on to a maximum of five enemies at a time rather than one.

Lock-On is activated and deactivated by tapping R1 in Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II, tapping R2 in Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories, double-tapping R in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, and tapping L and R at the same time in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, and Kingdom Hearts Re:coded. Switching targets while in Lock-On is done by pressing R2 or L2 in Kingdom Hearts, by holding R2 and moving the right analog stick in Kingdom Hearts II, and by tapping R in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days.

In a number of games, there are abilities that assist or enhance the targeting and Lock-On features. These include Scan, Range Extender, and Auto-Lock.
