The fallout franchise certainly has its fair share of brilliant iconography.
One of the most exemplary pieces of equipment to come out of the series would have to be
the RobCo Personal Information Processor, otherwise known as the Pip-boy.
Within every Fallout game, the player, alongside many other Vault-dwellers, has received one
of these for their wrist, gaining all of the advantages it brings.
The Pip-boy may be as iconic to the series as the likes of Deathclaws, super mutants
or even the Vault Boy bobbleheads….but I'm here to ask and hopefully answer a very interesting
question...is it possible?
Or more to the point, can we create a device that acts almost exactly like a Pip-boy in
our real world?
To answer that, we need to learn exactly what it's purpose was in the Fallout universe
and what items we'd need to check off to build our very own iteration of this wrist
eye candy.
As we find out in Fallout 3, when a person has their tenth birthday in a vault, they
receive a pip boy, which is almost universal to the other iterations in the franchise.
It's used as a sign of progression towards adulthood and having responsibilities, therefore
it helps the user organise themselves and their equipment.
It has a function to track and store any and all items the player character picks up.
Obviously this game mechanic is completely unrealistic and unless you want a giant bag
dangling from your wrist, this function of the pip-boy isn't going to come close, in
our real world.
As for keeping track of yourself, well that's a different story.
A group of individuals at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have delivered to
us a pill shaped device that through audio waves can track your vital signs and feedback
to a computer or other device.
You simply consume it like you would a regular pill, like for example a paracetamol and bingo,
it's in.
The device then slowly goes down your Gastrointestinal Tract, through your internal systems and then
lies in your stomach for a few days, collecting and a distributing data about your Hearts
beat per minute along with your respiratory rate.
Honestly, it's a little difficult to read as an outsider, however, i'm sure once you
become accustomed to reading the acoustic wave of your insides, you'll know what's
what and whether you'll just straight up fall over and die in the immediate future
or you'll live through another dreadful day in the harsh wastes.
Although it is a very useful piece of 'wireless' technology to keep track of your vital signs,
it's not a permanent option since it pops out of your poop shoot after a while, so it
may not be completely viable option, but I digress.
Moving onto another very useful portion of the pip-boys abilities, mapping out areas.
In the fallout games, you can locate a local map for smaller areas, such as inside buildings
or the world map to view the whole playable area, with location marks on the places that
the pip-boy recognises you've been to.
There is always the option to fast travel, to said places but I think we all know that
it's literally the game just skipping/simulating the walk for ya there.
So a map, that can track your location?
Well a simple solution would be a portable satellite GPS system, strapped to your wrist
for convenience.
A good example of this would be the Garmin eTrex 10 GPS Outdoor Handheld.
It's simple to use, its reasonable small and guess what, you can even put in your own
locations that you want to go to or places you've been, so you can check map markers
off the list.
We've got a pill to track our health and a GPS duct taped to our wrist for mapping...not
much of a pip boy, right?
Well don't worry your little head because Ashley Hennefer and her Space Apps team have
us covered.
They've been inspired by the Fallout series so much that they've decided to give a little
back, and try and do my job for me...but they've got the physical talent, knowhow and resources
to actually do it.
And so they did.
Sure it doesn't solve our inventory problem, but that shit ain't getting solved unless
you have a personal robot butler following you around, carrying all of your possessions,
everywhere you go.
They have however, 3d printed out a model of the pip boy, reminiscent of the 3000, and
thrown a bunch of cool shit into it.
Whilst on your wrist, it has the capability to have live mapping, showing you your surroundings,
whilst updating where you go, on the move.
Which is exactly how it functions in-game.
The only difference is you can't click a button on this and it magically does the walking
for you...that would be just outstanding when that day comes.
They've also implemented a homemade but fully tested and accurate geiger counter for
those radioactive situations, we always encounter in the Fallout series.
So you won't have to worry about venturing into that steamy yellow cave too much.
There were also plans, as you can see, to develop it further to track your vitals, alongside
ambient temperature, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure as well as object temperature using
an infrared thermometer.
They may have actually gone back to finish these touches off, but they were unable to
completely finish it during the Space Apps 48 hour development marathon and I can't
seem to find where they are with it today.
I can tell you that they had even higher goals with their pipboy, improving on it's in
game variant… by adding not just a radio to listen to, like in the games, but a radio
device to communicate with other wastelanders and settlements.
All of this data gathered from the sensors and for changing the frequency was fully developed
and viewed on the touch screen of an old iPhone.
The data is then distributed to and from a hub device or just a mainframe computer, through
a TI BLE Sensor, which is just a really efficient bluetooth system that doesn't drain your
batteries too quickly.
And wa-laa, a pip boy is born.
So they've effectively got everything covered, with their last plans set in stone as to attempt
to configure a Bluetooth EEG Heart Rate Monitor to track your vitals and progress from there.
I think the last thing that we need to do now, is provide an alternative to the The
Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System, otherwise known as V.A.T.S.
For those who don't know, in the majority of the fallout games, Vats has acted like
a time stop button, to allow the user to plan out their attack, and aim for a distinct body
part rather than just an enemy in general.
It has become a very useful staple gameplay mechanic for the franchise, and has only improved
as the games have evolved.
So can we stop time, or like in Fallout 4, engage in Bullet time?
No, unless you trip some serious balls on some fucking weird ass drugs, you ain't
gonna perceive time anywhere near that slow.
What about targeting individual body parts?
Well, yes and no.
There are some automated turret systems that can target at specific body parts under certain
conditions to immobilize a target but as for use with a single human unit, no we cannot.
We can however create an outline of potential targets, which will mostly come in handy during
darker periods of your time in the wasteland.
We can do this by using a technology that has been around and used for the past few
decades but has only recently been "perfected"... that being, Thermal sensorial rifle scopes.
I know what you're thinking, that ain't gonna be attached to my wrist, alongside the
rest of my gear.
It is sorta the next best thing, though.
Just stick it onto your gun, aim and you're good to go, V.A.T.S DiY style.

We use our brains to create amazing technologies, make great discoveries, and live day to day.
My human brain imaging research has interestingly revealed that the majority of areas in the
brain that fire together do so without relying on the direct wiring between them.
For devastating human illnesses involving changes in the brain such as Alzheimer's and
MS, these findings have major implications for future research, treatment, and prevention.

5 DIY Emoji Projects YOU NEED TO TRY! Phone Case, Lip Balm, Mini Slime, Room Decor & Orbeez DIYs - Duration: 10:47.
hello and welcome back to my channel today I'm
going to show you how to make 5 DIY
emoji projects if you're new to my
channel and you'd like to see future DIY
videos please click that subscribe button and if you
enjoy this video please give it a
thumbs up the first project will be the
DIY emoji lip balm to get started I'm
going to recycle one of these eyeshadows
containers i started by popping up a
little plastic piece that the eyeshadow sat on
once i had the plastic piece removed
then I just thoroughly washed and cleaned
out the eyeshadow container i painted
the outside of the eyeshadow container
with some yellow acrylic paint and it
did require about five coats to
full cover it
here is mine after it was painted
with a pencil i drew on the emoji face
that I wanted and then with some Sharpie
markers i colored it
no to make the lip balm for this in a
microwave safe container i'm going to
add 1 Tablespoon of beeswax and 1
tablespoon of coconut oil
I'm gonna melt that in the microwave on
15 second increment once it was melted
down to give some tint I'm just going to
use some lipstick from an old lipstick that
i had - I dropped that into the beeswax and
coconut oil and mix it up
I poured my lip balm mixture into the eyeshadow case and
let that sit for about 15 to 20 minutes
and here is mine once the lip balm had
set and that is how you make these easy
DIY emoji lip balms
the second Emoji project will be these emoji light-up
pillows perfect room decor what I'm
going to use is I'm just going to
recycle and old yellow t-shirt that I
had - I placed a plate in the middle of
the t-shirt and traced around it
the next thing i did was i just cut out
the circle making sure when i was done i
had the front side and the back side of
the t-shirt in the circle
I used a lid that was a little smaller
than the original circle and i traced around that
place the two circles back
together and begin hot gluing in small
sections on the line that was just made
make sure to leave one little section unglued
now turn the circle inside out
with a pencil i drew on the emoji face
that I wanted and I'm going to use some
Sharpie markers to color it in so i took
a piece of cardboard and place that in
the middle so the markers wouldn't leak
through then i just colored in the face
I'm going to stuff my pillow with some poly fil fiber
to make the pillow light up i'm going
to use some of these floral LED lights
the lights come on a thin wire and what
I did was I just stuff those into the pillow
leave a little bit of the battery pack
out then seal the rest of the pillow by
folding a bit of the top and bottom and
gluing to give it a nice finished look
hot glue the battery pack to the back of
the pillow these late shouldn't get hot
but never leave the pillow unattended
when the lights are on
just twist the battery pack on the back
to make the lights go on and off and
that is how you make these easy DIY
emoji light up pillows
the next project will be a DIY Orbeez
emoji room decor idea. For this one you
will need one of these glass bowls i drew
on an emoji face and then with Sharpie
markers i colored it in
I'm going to use an empty and clean Play Doh container to go
in the middle you just want something
that is about the same size as the bowl
and fits in the middle hot glue the bottom
of the play-doh container and place it
inside the glass bowl
I'm going to use this bottle of all yellow Orbeez I found
these on Amazon i will leave a link down
below I put the lid back on the Play
Doh container so when I filled the bowl
the Orbeez we go into the bowl and not
into the play-doh container
once the bowl is full of Orbeez add a
little bit of water
remove the play-doh lid and then add
your pens or pencils or even your makeup brushes.
the 4th craft project will be DIY Emoji Phone Case
for this one just
had to the link down below and print out
this printable cut out each letter and
the emoji face leaving a little border
I'm going to cover them with clear packaging
tape and then cut off the excess and the border
here were mine once they were all taped and cut out
I'm going to use a clear phone case I
place the letters and the emoji on the
phone and then I put the phone case back on
and that is how you make this DIY Emoji phone case
the 5th project will be DIY mini Emoji slime
that you can
turn into a keychain to make the slime i'm
going to start with some clear Elmers
glue. I'm just going to add a little bit of the
Elmer's glue to a bowl
to give it some color I'm going to use some yellow acrylic paint
i just added the yellow acrylic
paint to the glue and mixed that together
I'm going to use liquid starch if you don't
have liquid starch or you can't find it
you can use tide laundry detergent I
just slowly added a little bit to the
paint and glue mixture until it formed slime
and here is what my slime looked like
i'm going to use one of these little
bead containers or lip balm containers i
just took a little piece of the slime and
put that in the container.
I drew on a face that I wanted and then with some
Sharpie markers I colored that in
to color in the eye white i'm just going
to use some white acrylic paint
and i just used a sharpie marker to fill
in the middle of the eye and here's what
it looks like at this point now the next
step is optional but I'm going to turn
this into a key chain so what I used was a
paperclip and I just unfolded it and
then with a pair of cutters i just cut
off a little bit of the top
place a bead of hot glue in the middle of the
container on the back part making sure
not to glue the container shut then
place the paper clip in the hot glue
and set aside and let it cool down
now i'm going to use a jump ring and a key
chain. Place the jump ring around the paper
clip and then close the jump ring and
that is how you make these DIY miniature
slime emojis that you can turn into
keychains i hope you guys enjoyed these
five DIY emoji projects i would love it
if you gave this video a thumbs up leave
me a comment and let me know which one
was your favorite
what is your favorite emoji? until next
