Planetary Robot B9 was a late addition to the crew of tje Jupiter 2. It has a wide variety of capabilities, and tapes that can program it to do even more things. It has electrical bolts as well as laser beams. These are both offensive and defensive weapons. At first, the robot was considered dangerous to the family, since Dr. Smith was controlling it. He was using the Robot for his own devious ends. After operating amongst humans for a time the Robot started developing a personality, which led the younger Robinsons to treat "him" as a part of both the crew and the family.
The Lost in Space robot is probably one of the most iconic mechanical beings ever created for television of movies of all time. It was made designed by Robert Kinoshita, who also designed Robby The Robot. They did meet twice in Lost in Space, though Robby was playing a different character, so to speak. Sure, these robots are not true monsters, but come on, most robots just do what they are told. So I am just counting them anyway.
I am glad they added to the Robot to the series.
