Floating Cameras are objects that appear in multiple Sonic continuities. In all continuities, Doctor Robotnik is known to have created floating cameras as part of numerous plans.
Sonic the Comic[]
Floating cameras also appeared in Sonic the Comic, again to allow Doctor Robotnik to keep watch over his newly-conquered Mobius. In this continuity, they resemble floating eggs with camera lenses on four sides.
When Sonic returned after being flung six months into the future, he found the Emerald Hill Zone completely dominated by Robotnik and his Troopers, with the floating cameras littering the skies. After destroying many of the Troopers, Sonic used one of the cameras to issue Robotnik a warning that he would figure out a way of ridding Mobius of the evil doctor once and for all.[1]
Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog[]
Robotnik used floating television cameras at the grand opening of his Club Robotnik resort. Sonic the Hedgehog and Wallace A. Ditso interrupted the live feed and projected an image of Robotnik's head on a pig's body, then an image of Robotnik in the shower onto the big screen. Later, Sonic used one of the floating cameras to record incriminating evidence of Robotnik revealing that he had planned to turn the people of Mobius into his slaves.[2]
Sonic the Hedgehog (TV series)[]
In Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM), the Surveillance Orb, also called a Stealth Orb, is a nearly ubiquitous floating camera in Robotropolis and its environs. The video feed from the cameras is picked up directly at Doctor Robotnik's control room in Robotropolis.
Archie Comics[]
A nanite-powered camera was created by Nicole to spy on the new Enerjak.[3] It witnessed Enerjak's attack on Cave Canem, his confrontation with the Flame and Frost Legions, and the teleportation of the echidnas to Albion, before Enerjak destroyed the camera.[4]
The nanite-powered camera is based on the Surveillance Orb from Sonic the Hedgehog.
