On their home world these tough, slug like aliens have extremely keen sight, allowing them to spot aerial predators. Their eye clusters can see over a very wide range of the spectrum. Their brain power is extremely limited, however.
After cybernetic modification, the slugs are given artificial legs to aid in mobility, an extremely sensitive aural enhancement system, and a new artificial fore-brain to give them complex problem solving abilities and long range communication gear.
Coupling the skittish paranoia and sensitivity of the living organism with the enhanced mobility and linear problem solving and pattern recognition of an artificial brain leads to an extremely effective watchdog and searcher.
