History[]
Background[]
9-Eye is a Circumvisual PhotoDroid, created and used by the Metropolis Institute of Time Travel. There were at-least two prototypes of her android which pre-dated 9-Eye, known as the Three-Eye prototypes. 9-Eye was the assistant to the Timekeeper, a robotic scientist who had invented a form of time-travel and had 9-Eye accompany him in his journeys.
Tomorrowland[]
At some point between 1995 and 2000, he visited the Metropolis Science Center of Tomorrowland where he showed off his time-travel technology through 9-Eye projecting footage to the science centre.[1] During this incident, the Timekeeper and 9-Eye encountered Jules Verne at the Expo Universelle de Paris en 1900, shortly after Verne mocked H.G. Wells for exploring the idea of time-travel.
After Verne saw 9-Eye and became an accidental castaway on her time-travelling journey, the Timekeeper showed him the many advancements of the 20th century before returning him to the Expo, where Verne and Wells met-up and developed the latter's time-machine. Immediately after this, the Timekeeper sent 9-Eye to the year 2189 to attend the 300th expo, held in Paris. Here, Timekeeper and 9-Eye once again found Jules Verne and H.G. Wells, travelling together in a flying-car called Reinastella.
Other history[]
The Timekeeper and 9-Eye also held their showcase in the Visionarium of Discoveryland in Paris during the late 19th/early 20th century. Around 2001-2002, both the Timekeeper and 9-Eye's robotic bodies seemingly came into possession of RoboMart, a subsidiary company of the evil alien mega-corporation X-S Tech.
