The RA-7 protocol droid, also known as the RA-7 inventory droid and nicknamed the "Death Star Droid".

RA-7 protocol droid were distinguished by their insectoid heads, which were equipped with broadband photoreceptors featuring an antiglare coating. Units in existence by the year 22 BBY had body plating identical to that of Cybot Galactica's 3PO unit and the TC-series protocol droid.However, this was eventually discontinued in favor of unique plating equipped with an interface connection port by 19 BBY. RA-7s stood 1.7 meters in height and were able to function as translators. Unlike most protocol droids, RA-7s had unpleasant personalities and were almost always used as spies. (StarWars Wikia)
