AHologlide J57 cam droid

Cam droids, also known ashovercams, wererepulsorliftdroids, used as self-motivated recording devices. They were essentially artificially intelligent, self-directingholocameras.

Many cam droids were highly intelligent, such as theHolocam E, although others lacked all but minimal cognitive circuitry. Units such as theSenate cam droid could be programmed to favor certain political factions during recording and editing, while others, such as the journalist cam droid3DVO, were able to seek out news stories on their own. The 3DVO had a repulsorlift engine, a central holocam, a communications array and multiple backup recorders. It was one of the most reliable cam droids on the market. Shortly after the battle ofYavin, a mobile 3DVO helpedLuke Skywalker rescue the daughter of planetary potentate LordPrepredenko.

Cam droids also captured sporting events likePodraces, each one assigned a racer to follow during the race, and their recordings would be transmitted to the publicHoloNet or portableviewscreens.

Senate cam droids were normally equipped with multiple visual and audio transmitters. A wide-angle lens and a zoom function was normally given to senate cameras. This allowed them to capture panoramic views and the expressions of individual senators. These recordings could be sent live to publicHoloNet, or to private onlooker boxes. Each one carried a centraldatabank that could access and view any recording. The biggest downside to senate cams was that they were only as reliable as their programmers.

Cam droids duringPalpatine's tenure were known for giving Loyalist senators more face time. Later, senate recordings began to suddenly disappear from the archives of the droids, and some that were still intact had glaring gaps in them. Some people blamed them for the sudden deaths of Senators, such asSeti Ashgad, although Palpatine insisted that the timing was only coincidental.

Even though most were given to politicians, they were sold to the public for personal use. Most were just machines with very little droid intelligence. One of the best sellers to the public was called "Cammy." It was very bright and took on a motherly personality. A Cammy unit helpedR2-D2 andC-3PO, who were in theRebel Alliance, reprogram an assassin droid factory onTatooine.
