What means
It is the lower cell of a robot facing right.
Sharp's MZ-700 home computer appeared in 1982 with text arranged in fixed-size squares. Games built pictures by placing ready-drawn 8×8 shapes from its 512-character set. In the early 1980s, the European alternate Sharp MZ display set split this robot into upper and lower cells.
