Mechaniloid
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Mechaniloid (Mechaniroid in Japanese) is a term for a fictional series of robots in the Mega Man series. Mechaniloids are usually regarded as a robot with lower thinking capacity and lack of free-will (unlike Reploids and, to a lesser extent, Robot Masters).

[edit] Description
A Mechaniloid is a robot with limited or below-average thinking capacity. Throughout the series, they are commonly utilzed for more laborous tasks such as construction, computations, and more commonly seen, battle and defensive aspects. Due to their limited thinking capacity and the common adherence to the Three Robotic laws, they are very efficient at menial labor.
