What Autobot does not need from Android

I do lean toward the basic Android OS as a good fit for Autobot intelligence.  However, most of the User Interface is thrown away since Autobot will not likely be generating much display for the human. What does that leave us in terms of Android requirements?

Looking at the Android components, we need; the Linux kernel, the basic byte code machine, and some common libraries.  Most bots are likely to come equipped with real time database, which I consider essential so keep the standard SQLite that comes with Android..  Otherwise, most of the remaining parts of Android can be eliminated.

The point here is that Autobot wants nothing to do with user interface, except for a few warning lights.
