An autohopper was a type of automated self-propelled transport vehicle which traveled on preprogramed courses. They were routed by a central instruction processor (CIP). Autohoppers were used on Danuta, among other places, and an autohopper with governmental markings was parked in the Trid spaceport, next to the Moldy Crow. Until 44 BBY, they were used by the dictatorial government of the planet of Kegan as listening and recording devices as a means of effectively spying on the planet's population.
