|
|
Hey, you guys asked my agency to gather some data about these
|
|
Asimov-class androids the PPOA uses to accompany their agents in
|
|
terrain. The data is mostly classified for obvious reasons. Not
|
|
sure what do you guys plan to do with that but that's none of my
|
|
business. These androids are based on your standard Asimov models
|
|
with some extra bells and whistles unlike the models designated for
|
|
mass market. - Those extra bits are classified of course, but
|
|
that's why you contracted us for right? Unlike the standard
|
|
models, these things have skin that mimics the human skin almost
|
|
perfectly, including pores and hair. You would have to take a
|
|
sample under a microscope to find out that it's fake. The mouth
|
|
cavity serves as small chemical lab that analyzes the samples of
|
|
food and drinks for toxins and based on medical records, it
|
|
determines whether or not the agent will be affected by them. The
|
|
"stomach" has small disintegrator unit which converts the food into
|
|
heat and light energy which is then recuperated and used to
|
|
recharge it's capacitors. This method is secondary however, their
|
|
primary method of staying juiced up is mostly solar energy with
|
|
photovoltaic panels hidden under the skin on it's and back. Later
|
|
models also have miniature cold-fusion generator stored in their
|
|
chest cavity. Their CPU is stored in cranium as well as their data
|
|
storage. There's also a transmitter allowing them to send the data
|
|
back to agency using agent's ship as a relay. Each agent has
|
|
implanted small radio broadcaster in their throat as well as
|
|
miniature receiver in their ear - allowing to communicate with
|
|
their android over distance. There are some models equipped with
|
|
experimental psychic induction unit that's supposedly allowing them
|
|
to communicate with agent via telepathy - although that part is
|
|
questionable since as you may know science is conflicted in regard
|
|
of it's existence - if it does, then it is extremely limited to
|
|
small number of individuals but I digress. This series has been
|
|
discontinued shortly after. Since the nature of PPOA's operation is
|
|
dangerous, these bastards are packing. Newer models are equipped
|
|
with "sleep bombs" - those are glass-balls filled with this yellow
|
|
liquid that vaporizes instantly. The vapor effectively knocks out
|
|
any individual within the effective radius of 100 meters unless
|
|
they take antidote pill specifically created to negate such effect.
|
|
Aside from that they got some antibiotics, surgery equipment,
|
|
couple of syringes filled with various substances and medigel
|
|
dispenser stored in cavities located in thighs. As for offensive
|
|
capabilities - there's laser emitter hidden in right index finger,
|
|
servos and gyros to give it superhuman strength and ability in case
|
|
of close quarter engagements, and pair of antigrav modules that can
|
|
be used to carry agent to safety in case of emergency. Older models
|
|
had even mass disruptor cannon hidden in left forearm powerful
|
|
enough to disintegrate an entire house in an instant at it's
|
|
maximum power output. These gadgets however are pretty demanding on
|
|
energy so it's uses are limited. Later models have disintegrator
|
|
removed however due to a couple of instances violating
|
|
non-involvement law - see attachment. I guess somebody forgot to
|
|
mention to them that there are beasts out there which you can't
|
|
appease by scratching them behind ears, although the butterfly
|
|
effect caused by a historical figure literally blinking out of
|
|
existence in front of a crowd is probably good enough of a reason
|
|
to justify it's removal as far as non-involvement committee is
|
|
concerned.
|
|
|
|
Alright that's about all I have been able to gather, for more
|
|
detailed informations see references attached to this message. As
|
|
per our contract, send your payment at your earliest convenience
|
|
but no later than 30 days from receiving of this message. Detailed
|
|
instructions are enclosed in the attachment.
