I ROBOT SE DISC1-124

USR HQ seen from the city skyline

Founded by Alfred Lanning and Lawrence Robertson, they are responsible for creating the NS-4 and NS-5 robots. The NS-5's are much faster, stronger, smarter, and have many more advantages.

Products[]

Equipment: USR's primary form of transporting its robots are huge, semi-truck-like vehicles that can each carry over 150 robots. The trucks were used in various scenes, including releasing killer robots to attack Spooner on the freeway. The trucks have self-driving capabilities, were able to drive sideways, and for their weight & size, reach very high speeds. In addition, each truck is equipped with a giant robotic arm to deliver the new robots & to take back the old robots in the truck to transport to the storage facility.

Robots: USR is responsible for creating Sonny and many other NS-5 robots. However, the robots turned against their creators, and soon invaded USR's HQ, but were luckily stopped by Detective Del Spooner & Dr. Susan Calvin. The NS-5 robots are last seen being transported to USR's Lake Michigan storage facility, and are stored away in containers under the broken bridge, which matches Sonny's dream location.
