Prowler (Imperial)

Prowlers were specialized devices used as weapons by the Galactic Empire. They resembled rectangular prisms with a panel on each of its sides, as well as a camera.

Luke Skywalker, just prior to rescuing Princess Leia Organa in 0 BBY, encountered these weapons while attempting to rescue his allies.

Behind the scenes
Prowlers appeared in the 1987 Japanese Star Wars game, although the game's canonicity is ambiguous.
