 How do Dummies see? Hey guys,
There's been one thing that's been really bothering me for some strange reason: the Dummies in CC, they have no eyes, no sensory modules, nothing that would indicate sight capabilities of any kind! So how the hell do they see?!?!?
Post any explanation you have, and again, sorry for this, but I can't think of anyone better to ask than you guys.

Re: How do Dummies see? Any smart robotist knows to not put the vital components in the head, but rather in a more well protected area, such as the chest. The optics are probably mounted at the base of the neck or something, like a necklace made of a camera.

Re: How do Dummies see? They visualize using sonar, and as such don't really need eyes.

Re: How do Dummies see? That works too, but it wouldn't let them see energy weapons.

Re: How do Dummies see? Maybe it's located in the middle of their chest? Or maybe they've got an entirely new technology that allows them to see without any visible modules.

Re: How do Dummies see? a camera located on their abdomen somewhere, with sonar help.
And if you don't put the vital thing in the head, explain to me why the dummies die when they get their head blown off.

Re: How do Dummies see? They see the same way brainbots or dreadnoughts do.

Re: How do Dummies see? Maybe this explains why the AI is so stupid... They should seriously upgrade to this: Simple, and can be sprited with one green pixel.

Re: How do Dummies see? I agree with Lambda, but for the sake of argument, just because the eye is not in the head, doesn't mean that the CPU or something similar is in there? ♥♥♥♥, maybe the wireless dongle they use to communicate is there.

Re: How do Dummies see? derp derp if the eyes get shot off robots die
yeah
if you actually care about it all that much, officially unofficial grif pseudo-science:
broad-spectrum em spectrum detectors in the chest, directional mics on both sides of the head for basic acoustic performance
head contains the secure wireless link between brain and bot, put in the head for greater range and signal power
