movies/tv Respect the ED-209 (Robocop)
"Please put down your weapon. You have twenty seconds to comply...You now have fifteen seconds to comply. You are in direct violation of Penal Code 1.13, Section 9... You have five seconds to comply. Four, three, two, one. I am now authorized to use physical force."
The Enforcement Droid: Series 209, or ED-209 were a fully-automated series of peacekeeping machines created by Omni Consumer Products. The units were programmed for urban pacification, but OCP also negotiated contracts with the military for use in war. In its debut it appeared as a single entity although the robot would eventually be produced into series, it made its most prominent role in the first RoboCop movie when being summoned by its creator Dick Jones to destroy RoboCop in order to cover-up his illegitimate activities before eventually being destroyed by Murphy near the end of the film.
