A droid is a robot, specifically the intelligent robots in the fictional Star Wars universe. Famous droids include R2-D2 and C-3PO.

Less famous droids in the Star Wars saga include: 2-1B medic, EV-9D9, Federation battle droid, IG-88, Imperial probe droid, Pit droid, Power droid (Gonk), R5-D4, and Treadwell.

The two leading droid manufacturors are Cybot Galactica and Industrial Automaton.

The word "droid" is a contraction of "android" which is a term used for human-like robots, but droids are not necessarily humanoid in appearance.
