The Smilers were a type of Androids that were aboard the Starship UK.
Profile
The Smilers were mounted in booths around the Starship UK. At any time a citizen broke the law or was deemed unnecessary, the Smilers would take action. The Smilers rotated their heads to show three faces: happy, angry (for warnings), and malevolent (when attacking). While they had three faces, they appeared to rotate their heads 180 degrees (which should mean they'd only have two). This might mean that faces can be removed when they rotate. While they initially appeared to be merely heads, in extreme circumstances they could be made to leave the booths and attack. They could also quickly repair themselves when damaged. The terrified population kept their booths clean and never dared get too close to them. one smiler is seen switching from happy to malevolent face, suggesting that the malevolent face is a holographic projection.
