The Androids



In past the word android was used to describe a human-like robot. Therefore, it is pretty ironic that Google chose a robot that doesn't look like a human at all to feature the logo of its mobile operating system. Nonetheless, the green robot has become an iconic symbol and it makes a little sense to rebrand it now. Even cyclists love it!

The photo above and the two photos below were taken on 20 June 2012, shortly before the Lunchtime Bike Ride, the highlight of Dublin's Bike Week.

The event was a great fun and it was wonderful to see Googlers that made an effort and dressed up in Green to match their robotic helmet cover.
