Android sculptures, Group of sculptures at Googleplex, Mountain View, US

Android Sculptures is a group of large foam figures on a paved area at Charleston Rd and Huff Ave in Mountain View, California. The figures include a green upright android with a domed head and two antennae, a brown ice-cream-sandwich android with a bitten edge, a honeycomb slab, a gummy-bear shape, an ice-cream cone and a tall orange arch. A white sign on a black post reads "ANDROID" above "2001".

The first figures appeared in 2008 when Google began celebrating each new Android release with a physical sculpture on its campus. The tradition ended in 2019 after the company changed its naming strategy for the software.

Each statue is named after a dessert codename, chosen in alphabetical order from Cupcake (2009) onward; Android 1.1 was internally called Petit Four. Google dropped dessert names publicly with Android 10 in 2019, yet the 11 and 12 figures still refer to Red Velvet Cake and Snow Cone. The white sign beside the group reads "ANDROID" and "2001".

The campus area is accessible during daytime hours and the figures stand outdoors, allowing photography in all weather conditions. The easiest access is through the visitor center area, where you can also see other parts of the grounds.

The green Android once stood beside Alex, a dog-shaped toy chair by Eero Aarnio, stolen in 2009. In 2012 heat popped off the Jelly Bean statue's head and a jelly bean inside was taken, prompting engineer Dan Morrill to ask people not to steal them.
