The R3-series astromech droid was part of the line of R-series astromech droids manufactured by Industrial Automaton. Thanks to their Intellex V processors, R3 astromechs had faster processing abilities than the more common R2 units. Typically, R3 units had transparent plastex domes that showed off their overclocked processors. However, this was not always the case, as exemplified by R3-S6, who had an opaque dome.
