| The name or term "Perceptor" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Perceptor (disambiguation). |
- Perceptor is an Autobot in the Generation 1 continuity family.
Perceptor is a scientist, one of the most brilliant minds the whole of Cyberton can offer. Not much for fighting, he is always content to contribute to the Autobot cause in his own way but will engage in combat if the situation calls for it. Optimus Prime often relies on Perceptor's genius and considers him as valuable as any of his officers.
One of Perceptor's most infamous qualities is his tendency to speak using overly-scientific terms, which can baffle his comrades (and occasionally frustrate them).
Perceptor transforms into a microscope and can function as any microscope known to man, including an electron microscope. In both modes, he can use the optical lenses in his microscope barrel-cannon to fire a beam of concentrated light.
