Overview
Robots are autonomous machines first built during the Star League era. These advanced pieces of technology were designed to perform simple, repetitive tasks too menial or dangerous for normal human workers. As such, robots were prolific on many worlds throughout the Star League, especially those planets hostile to human life.[1]
The Succession Wars had a negative effect on technological progress, of which robots suffered similarly. While the ability to build robots has survived, luxuries such as limited artificial intelligence has become lostech. Some robots have the capacity for independent action, but not independent thought. Robots are therefore a rare find in the 31st Century, though they have been spotted on the battlefield when their owners lack proper combat machines. [1]
