Eyebot

The eyebot is a hovering propaganda-spewing reconnaissance and surveillance robot with whip-like radio antennas resembling long "whiskers" pointing to its back, and loudspeakers in the front.

Background
 They were originally designed by RobCo before the Great War as media transmitters notably radio and television.

Used by the Enclave on the East Coast for broadcasting the Enclave Radio, which consists of propaganda, presidential speeches and patriotic marching music for the people of the Capital Wasteland, these robots are almost harmless to most players, as they have the least health of any other robot in the game, and a weapon hardly on par with a AEP7 laser pistol. To players of lower level they can still be dangerous though, and in the later stages of the game some eyebots have the nasty habit of calling in Enclave patrols when destroyed.

Eyebot duraframe subject E


The eyebot duraframe subject E (also known as ED-E) is an Enclave eyebot from the East Coast, built by Whitley at Adams Air Force Base. ED-E is a prototype "Duraframe" model, and he has been enhanced for regular combat as opposed to the original model, which functions primarily as a mobile radio transmitter. However, since the war with the Capital Wasteland Brotherhood of Steel necessitated increased production of Hellfire armor, eyebot production was stopped, and ED-E became the last surviving model. Whitley uploaded an enormous amount of valuable data on Poseidon Energy and his duraframe research into ED-E's logs, then dispatched it on a cross-country journey to Navarro, past Rockville, Hagerstown, The Pitt, Dog Town and many others. ED-E is superior to any other eyebot in combat, both in terms of armor and firepower.

This eyebot is found at the start of the Lonesome Road add on, in the Hopeville Silo Bunker. He stays with the character throughout, and is necessary to progress, opening doors and also commissary terminals for the Player Character. Once upgraded (see Camarader-E ) his upgrades are sent to the original ED-E in the mojave. He also has an onboard Workbench and Reloading bench (though these will be available on ED-E after download of Lonesome Road anyway).

He differs from the original ED-E in that he is armed with a player specific Arc Welder, and appears to be much less battered, with a fresh-looking paint job, and a Cleaner casing. He still retains the same basic characteristics and personality, as he is just a copy of ED-E in another body.

Prototype eyebot


The model for this eyebot variant is found inside the REPCONN Headquarters building, just past the first few rooms of displays. It is said to have advanced facial and voice recognition. It also differs to the other models in the way it actually has a screen, instead of a grill at the front (presumably to act as a television screen). It is accompanied by a prototype Mister Handy model, experimental protectron model, and a prototype variant of the sentry bot.
