The Viper Probot is a miniaturized reconnaissance probe droid used for scouting missions where larger probe droids were impractical. It is equipped with a 360-degree array of short-range sensors on a half-hemisphere head with four appendages beneath its chassis ending in pincers allowing it to walk. It also is fitted with a pair of simple blasters that it can fire with deadly accuracy.
VP has received advanced automated repair programming based on the original Viper Probot schematics, giving it an ability to perform or assist in the performance of self-diagnosis and self-repair of its mechanical systems. This system engages automatically upon damage, and can render the droid temporarily unavaialble while it assesses any necessary repairs before further action can be taken.
VP has had every external component painted black as night, with attempts to minimize the brightness of external lights and features. This allows this Viper Probot to more easily blend into the shadows and darkness unseen.
An improved sensor suite has been installed inside the droid brain of VP, allowing a slightly wider scanning area than a standard Viper Probot.
