Espionage droid



Espionage droids were droids that, to all outward appearances, resembled a standard droid model, but had hidden programming used to record information and relay it to the droid's owner.

MerenData produced an espionage droid using the frame of a Cybot Galactica 3PO-series protocol droid. This proved highly effective due to the widespread use of 3PO units across the galaxy as diplomats and interpreters.

The Arakyd RA-7protocol droid was refitted by the Imperial Security Bureau to function as espionage droids, fitted with recording devices and surveillance equipment, including sensor jammers disguised as weld marks.
