Free Will Robot Concept Design

It's the 24th century and mankind is on the verge of mapping the soul of a person into a robot. Children are randomly selected at birth to be used in the study. A Soul Duplicating Device is placed over their heart and in their brain to monitor their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors as they grow up. When the children turn eighteen the device is placed into an unaware robot. The robots are activated after being shipped to a distant planet for observation. The planet is an artificial world in which robots rule themselves. They have created a system of government similar to that of 20th century America. These robots have the freedom to take any action they desire, and there's nothing in their programming to prevent them from lying, stealing, or even killing. They only have the moral compass of the Soul Duplicating Device to guide them through existence. Can 6 young robots stay pure when introduced into a primitive environment where fear, greed, and corruption rule? Will they allow their environment to darken their hearts, or will their souls continue to burn bright? After 10 years they will be judged by their creators to determine if they are virtuous enough to co-exist with their human counterparts.
