Fembot

A Fembot is the name for a type of female android depicted in two major productions, The Bionic Woman television series and the Austin Powers film series.

In The Bionic Woman, the Fembots, are a line of powerful androids that Jaimie and Steve Austin fought in two episodes in her series, "The Fembots" and "Return of the Fembots". Despite the name, there were also male versions, including ones designed to impersonate particular individuals for the purpose of infilitration. While not truly artificially intelligent, they still had extremely sophisticated programming that allowed them to pass for humans in most situations. Often times however, the face plate would often be dislodged and reveal the machine's facial mechanism, creating the classic image of the menace. Fembots on important missions were often remotely controlled by an operator back at the base who was able to see and hear everything through the machine.

Their main weakness was their default operational setting produced a unique high pitched sound only Jaimie could hear with her ear implant, allowing her to detect their presence. However when the operator was aware of this problem, this sound could be turned down in Jaimie's presence. Even when the bionic heroes openly face the machines, the operator could increase their strength and make them extremely formidable in combat.

The Austin Powers versions were a parody, which looked like beautiful women dressed in sexually provocative outfits and fought with guns hidden in their breasts until the firing barrels are extended outward. In the first film, Powers defeats them by doing a strip tease dance and overloads them.
