The silhouette shows that the Ap-Sap can be applied to the building. Note the eye widens.

There you go. Once again, expertly hacked. Quite technical.
Wheatley on successful sapping

The Ap-Sap is a Sapper replacement for the Spy. It is a flattened Wheatley core with a glowing blue eye, that has voice lines which are activated upon certain circumstances such as deploying a Sapper, death, and more. The eyelid of the Ap-Sap moves as it talks and widens when in range of a sappable building.

This weapon functions exactly the same way as the Sapper.

The Ap-Sap is awarded in Genuine quality to players who opened a What's in the Portal 2 Soundtrack Box?, which is included via promo code with the Portal 2: Songs to Test By CD.
