That's the brobot from Lost in Space (I think)! I (might) know sci-fi!

I have to stan MGM’s original Robby the Robot who made his first movie appearance in Forbidden Planet (1956).

But as much as Roddenberry was inspired by Forbidden Planet, Star Trek didn’t get an mobile AI crew member until TNG.

He is, and Lennier of Babylon 5 was played by the same actor as the kid in Lost in Space.
