Rex Standard

Also known as the Rex 35, 35 Standard, and RS35, was the original robot. It was useful but limited, a flaw that was corrected in later models. Although it was a historical event at the time of release the original robot is long forgotten and overshadowed by nearly every other robot that came after it.

History
Not much is known about the design stages of the 35. It was simply released with little build up. It was marketed as a household appliance citing that it could run on gas just like a car, and could help with chores.

Features
The 35 was at the time a great achievement but when compared to later models lacks in nearly every department. It had to be manually upgraded. It couldn't function in tempreatures under 40 degrees fahrenheit and its fuel tank only lasted about ten hours. Though itcould clean the dishes like nobody's business.

It was adopted by some fire departments as it could easily lift upwards of three hundred pounds.

Olympus
Just two years later, Rex released an updated version of the 35 to compete with other robot companies popping up, taking attention away from the original. The Olympus, as it was called was 200% faster, and could now recieve commands in three languages instead of just english. This extra speed, however, came at a cost. The Olympus was actually interally identical to the 35 with only one difference, that being the "enhanced motor control processor". This enchancement was little more than a removal of the speed limiter that the 35 had in place to prevent overheating. The extra heat created by the removal of the limiter caused fuel lines, and wires near the processor to melt or on some occasions, combust violently. The Olympus was grey with maroon marks around the body and "Olympus" on the side.
