All source code is available on GitHub, and the 3D print files are available free to download from Thingiverse.I recently tried installing the Pipboy-2500 mod but I found it far too buggy for my liking, so I installed a similar mod, the Pipboy-3500, and I'm wondering whether it's lore friendly. Team Reno hoped to add a Bluetooth EEG monitor, for measuring heart rate, and some communications features, but ran out of time.Īlthough most of these features wouldn't necessarily be useful in day-to-day life, there's nothing stopping others from developing their own apps, since the team has made the project open source. Also tucked into the 3D-printed case is a home-made Geiger counter, as well as a Pinnoc.io microcontroller. Of course, the iPhone can't detect all this on its own. Instead of showing a video-game HUD, though, it displays environmental information - relative humidity altitude, latitude and longitude atmospheric pressure ambient temperature object temperature and radiation. "The goal was to bring environmental sensors into an easy-to-use cuff device that could help a wearer determine if their environment is safe for navigation or helmet removal."Īn iPhone 5 with Bluetooth Low Energy is used as the brains of the device, running an app that displays a Pip-Boy-inspired interface. "We wanted to make a piece of popular science fiction into a reality so we chose the Pip-Boy 3000 from the game Fallout 3," Team Reno wroteon its submission page. Taking the design and concept straight out of Fallout, Team Reno has designed a 3D-printable Pip-Boy 3000. That's kind of what a team of coders has done for NASA's SpaceWearables: Fashion Designer to Astronauts challenge. But, if the concept could be modified with practical application for your work or day-to-day life, and made available to everyone, wouldn't it be amazing?

Zachariah Perry Cruse's working Pip-Boy 3000 replica was the real deal, but it was pretty limited in what it could do - and who could have one.
