Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't this the function of R2-D2 and the other ship based droids on the ships in Star Wars??
Episode 1, I believe, when R2-D2 fixed Anakin's yellow ship (name?) and became a hero of sorts.
Is this yet another revolutionary idea that may have originally come from the great George Lucas???
