Combot is a robot designed by Lee Chaolan's robotics firm. It is programmed to be able to mimic any human motion it can detect with its motion-capture matrix. Intended for a spectrum of tasks, Lee opts to use its ability to copy human movement to enter it as a contestant in the King of Iron Fist Tournament 4, believing that it would be unbeatable as it would learn every combatant's skill over the course of the tournament. However, due to its design, it is only able to capture a single entity's movements each time it is activated.
