Robot-Berning also produced enlarged versions of the Robot, the Robot Royal 18, 24 and 36, with built-in rangefinder and with an autoburst mode of operation capable of shooting 6 frames per second. The camera was about the size of a [[Leica M3]] and weighed 907g (almost 2 pounds). It was equipped with a Schneider Xenar 45&nbsp;mm f/2.8 lens. The Robot Royal 36 took a standard 35&nbsp;mm still picture but was identical to the Royal 24 in all other regards. They retained the behind-the-lens rotary shutter with speeds from 1/2 to 1/500 s.

Robot Royal II is a larger viewfinder camera, it has no rangefinder, it does not have burst mode, it is a stripped down  Robot Royal III.

bayonet mount lenses.

There are two versions,  Robot Royal 36, produce 36 24x36mm images on a roll of 135 film,  Robot Royal 24  makes 50 24x24mm images on 135 film

A version for instrumentation (and traffic) was also created on the basis of the Royal design: the Recorder. These cameras were like the Royal but without viewfinder or rangefinder. They had interfaces to motors and detachable backs to support bulk film cassettes. A special parallel series of the Royal too was available that included these features. While the Royal had only limited market success, the Recorder was well accepted. It became the centerpiece of the company's portable document capture, traffic control and security solutions, and continues to be the standard Robot camera for instrumentation applications.
