What is Anderson Robotics?
Group #: GOI-1115, "Anderson Robotics"
Membership: ~200 Employees Worldwide
Resources: USD$750 million annually, anomalous capability
Status: Active
Description: Anderson Robotics is a paratech firm specializing in the sale of anomalous
robots, androids, artificial intelligences, computer programs, and cybernetics.
While it is believed that Anderson Robotics has been in operation since the 1990s, the
firm first came to the Foundation's attention in 2007, after the capture of SCP-1360 during
a raid on a paratech trafficking warehouse in Seattle.
Since this initial contact, Anderson Robotics has been recognized as the foremost dealer
of robotics paratechnology.
While Anderson Robotics has achieved a worldwide presence, especially following its 2014 distribution
partnership with Marshall, Carter, and Dark Ltd, its current base of operations is the
continental United States, particularly in the Pacific Northwest.
Major production, distribution, and administrative facilities have been uncovered in Oregon,
Washington, and California, with recent expansions into New Mexico, Arizona, and Lousiana.
Multiple SCP objects have been attributed to this group since its discovery.
Personnel may reference items indexed under "anderson" for a complete list.
Current investigations into the internal framework of Anderson Robotics by MTF Gamma-13 has uncovered
that the primary administrative core of the firm consists of a board of six individuals
listed below:
Vincent Anderson: Chief Executive Officer.
Type Blue Anomalous Humanoid.
Albert “Phineas” Frostman: Chief Operating Officer.
Type Blue Anomalous Humanoid.
Dr. Medea Contos: Co-Head of Research and Development.
Jason Contos: Co-Head of Research and Development.
Dr. Jeffery Wilson: Head of Advanced Logic Division.
Isaac Dillard: Executive Officer.
Attempts to apprehend the above individuals have been hampered by the organization's remarkable
espionage abilities, anomalous nature of their facilities, and strong support from external
Groups of Interest.
Product Information
Amur Series Recon Drone: Small, orb shaped robots with retractable legs that are capable
of climbing sheer surfaces, these tiny drones are approximately 5 cm in diameter.
Each comes equipped with video and audio recording capabilities and an active camouflage system.
Multiple instances have been recovered spying on Foundation Personnel, specifically those
located at Site-64, Site-81, and Site-88.
Aplomado Series Facility Defense Unit: An auto-turret standing at approximately two
meters in height, with thermal imaging capabilities and four barrels which can accommodate a wide
variety of armaments.
A self-repairing outer armor renders Aplomado units largely immune to most small arms fire.
Gyrfalcon Series Prosthetics: First released for consumer sale in 2016, the Gryfalcon series
consists of cybernetic eyes, legs, and arms with a large variety of parahuman abilities
and functions.
Unlike other Anderson Robotics products, the Gyrfalcon series is offered almost exclusively
to customers of Marshall, Carter, and Dark Ltd.
Kestrel Series Domestic Utility Unit: Standing at over a meter in height, and resembling
a large black cube, Kestrel units contain multiple arms that can be specialized for
a wide variety of domestic uses.
Examples have included cooking, cleaning, carpentry, auto work, child care, farming,
gardening, and pet grooming.
Merlin Series Aerial Drone: Resembling a small jet plane with a wingspan of 34 cm, Merlin
series drones have been observed carrying a wide variety of armaments, and possess video
recording capabilities.
The unique outer casing of the unit renders it invisible to most forms of video recording.
Nankeen Computer Repair System: A prototype developed by Anderson Robotics in 2012, the
NCRS is a flash drive containing an artificial intelligence capable of repairing basic computer
problems.
Despite a largely functional prototype, Anderson Robotics has not developed the product for
consumer sale.
Peregrine Series Humanoid Utility Droid: Standing at approximately 2 meters in height, the Peregrine
series is currently the top selling droid offered by Anderson Robotics, and its only
android available for sale to the general public.
Each Peregrine Series unit is customizable to include skills in both domestic tasks and
combat, in addition to an advanced artificial intelligence.
In recent years, multiple GoIs and wealthy patrons have begun using PSHUDs to supplement
their security forces.
Additionally, PSHUDs have demonstrated an ability to serve as command units for other
Anderson products, most notably Aplomado and Merlin units.
Saker Series Android: Similar to the Peregrine Series, Sakers are designed to be equipped
with an external skin resembling human flesh, allowing them to pass as humans.
Currently the only model of android created by Anderson Robotics that it does not offer
for public sale, Sakers have allowed for the firm to develop heightened espionage capabilities,
including the impersonation of multiple SCP Foundation personnel, and in one instance,
impersonation of a sitting member of the United States Congress.
Designation: Mobile Task Force Gamma-13
Nickname: Asimov’s Lawbringers
Classification: Tracking/Undercover
Base of Operations: Site-64
Description: Mobile Task Force Gamma-13 specializes in the investigation, tracking, and apprehension
of anomalous objects, persons, and entities associated with GoI-1115 (Anderson Robotics).
This includes identification of Anderson customers, location of Anderson products and conduction
of raids on Anderson offices.
Gamma-13 was involved in the initial containment of SCP-2306 and SCP-2806 as well as the ongoing
containment of SCP-2906.
Director Holman,
Per your request, Agent Shaw and I have complied a timeline of MTF Gamma-13's investigation
