#Fallout

[@GoblinLord]

I legit could see this as an actual Black-Isle/Interplay era Pipboy, not a Bethesda Era because it's just so different from that but definitely if Fallout 3 was made by Interplay, I could see this being their pipboy

[@randycarter2001]

The only thing I'd change is the wrist strap. As you may have noticed it's difficult to put on. I would use some kind of Velcro based solution. Also a Pi Zero would use less power and if you use the W version you'd have network/internet access.

[@jonnupe1645]

Maybe a different single-board computer all together. I know the Jetson Pro Mini is popular lately, probably could work in the ventilation/cooling system into the design. I'd be a power hungry beast though

[@bobdole4694]

The Banana PI M2 Zero might also be a good option. Roughly same form factor as the Zero W but with a Quad Core 1.1ghz Allwinner CPU instead of the Pi zero's 1ghz single core.

[@randycarter2001]

@@bobdole4694 This thing doesn't need blazing fast performance. You're not playing the actual game on it. Just using it for a remote display. The more of a power miser this is the better.

[@swedenvendor7076]

Yo

[@BasedBidoof]

God I love this. Probably one of the coolest pipboys ever!

[@Davedarko]

This looks so great! Digging the effort on the software and all that metal work!

[@adventureoflinkmk2]

Now, you need a rads detector so you can display rads in the area and how many you've collected ;)

[@chandlerstovall]

L.L LMFAO EXACTLY

[@mlody_ps]

Microsiverts or Roentgens not rads

[@V38-r7t]

@@mlody_psroentgen is probably better since you cant really get rid of your radiation dose

[@awo1fman]

Love the look of it. The control section is even anthropomorphic with the speaker, volume knob and slots below making a face.

[@butre.]

place a piece of domed acrylic over top of the lcd and fill it with some kind of clear non-conductive fluid like 3m novek or silicone oil. it'll project the light to the surface of the domed plastic and give you most of the CRT aesthetic.

[@Jericho297]

If I could add one thing I would add visible decorative vacuum tubes for the authentic series 2000 pip-boys

[@droid_protocol_official]

I love that you know how to program those boards to work with everything else and display everything so well on screen. Amazing work! Can’t wait to see the Mkiii

[@Sip_Dhit]

The difference between a 2000 and a 3000 is the assembly, 2000s are modular this can be seen with the mk6 the radio and speaker module, holo reader module, radiation and input module, and a CPU module, this was represented in FO2 with the 2000 having addition all parts that could be added, the 3000s on the other hand are fully enclosed, all parts and pieces are contained in a solid brace, this made them less advanced as they couldn't be upgraded, but more durable

[@optimusprime9648]

Can't wait for the next iteration! I would legit buy one that is closer to the models in the Fallout universe with biometrics and a Geiger (in addition to what you already have in the Mk II).

[@TheDarkelvenangel]

Well done! I love these fallout builds. I would say though if you had time rolling your own Linux with Buildroot and not using Python would greatly improve the performance of this.... I see what my next project is going be.

[@billporter6592]

Great build !

[@candiecalifornia5601]

if you wanna fake a crt just put a clear plastic dome thing over the screen also a step tracker would be cool. or if you could intergrade those fitness watches to see your irl vitals

[@fac3th3wolf]

Did anyone else Catch the "I won't have a radio IN THIS VERSION"?

[@UNSCPILOT]

Personally, I would add a SDR radio receiver, seems fitting given tge capabilities of the Pipboy and would just plug into the Raspberry Pi

[@GamingDad63]

Make sure Mk III is coming :) Interresting project!

[@LuisMendoza-pp9qi]

This is one of the BEST VIDEOS I've ever seen

[@thecpmr6276]

You, sir, are pretty dang awesome.

[@momsberettas9576]

The Pip-Boy 3000 has enough controls to do everything shown in game. I just got the Mark V from the want company and the controls are awesome.

[@Da_N8tiveMan_03]

Everyone be making there own Pip-Boy but I’m not complaining because this is so fucking Gnarly great work man can’t wait to see Mk lll

[@lokeman8492]

you should consider making one that is super low profile made with one of those flexible OLED paper thin screens. Put it in a forearm guard made of Kydex or something and patent it up and sell it to first responders.

[@justsomeguywithanfc1324]

I would give the pip boy a material that inflates around the arm for a perfect fit for all arm types. The pip boy 3000 would be perfect for a material that inflates.

[@jonnupe1645]

This is a great idea. I've always wanted a practical pip and this, this is it. It inspired me to try it out when I get a chance, rather I'd use a e-paper screen to save on battery life and be able to read the text in sunlight! (solar/thermal powered pip-boy?)

[@npc6817]

I could see it in canon as a product from a competing company effort to move away from nuclear power that was quickly lobbied out of market by vault-tec with help from the american government. wait, let me think of a name... well the pip boy makes me think of gameboy so maybe pip station? By Sunny inc!

[@ZoshDoesStuff]

So... when is the Mk III coming?

[@fallouttoonlink]

Yeah, honestly the 3000 mark IV is by far the most useable. It even has a fuctioning selection button that is pressed when selecting something

[@mattig89ch]

I would like to see your next iteration of this thing. Nice job man!

[@thecokeman7037]

you could use a walkman for the "holotapes" aka kaset tape.

[@СергейВерхов-в9о]

It's amazing! I want made it!

[@ChipsAndWires]

Your hacks are the best thing to happen to Fallout since New Vegas.

[@nero5052]

we did get mini crt in the form of vhs camcorder viewfinders but they still wouldn't work bc they are too long and small

[@darealduck6945]

We’re living in 2020 while this guy is living in 2077

[@ryanraymond9664]

Mini CRT's do exist. I saw one at salvation army for $5

[@jesusmartinezjr.6928]

Alternative name,"PI"p-boy

[@donovandelaney3171]

"The Omnitrix! He's wearing the Omnitrix! It does exist!" - Alien - Ben 10: Secret of the Omnitrix.

[@-Cheif]

You know that’s kinda similar to the fallout 1 pip boy

[@nikobellic42]

Very cool!

[@eg6490]

I would buy one of these, it’s really good. And if you ever do make that improved version, I’d love to see that too

[@Sip_Dhit]

I mean the 3000 mk4 has a dial and 2 buttons you missed mentioning

[@GESSO217]

What version of the Raspberry pi did you use and what operating system? I've been trying to make one of these myself but have hit a road block as the only one I've found requires the Raspberry Pi 1 Model B+ and that's discontinued.

[@owenclark7210]

Very cool. I just had a friend give me the 3000 mk IV that he printed up, as well as the Raspberry Pi 3 he was going to use in it. I've never used one of these boards before, so I have my work cut out for me to get it set up and working the way I want it to. huh. Just looked on the box for the Raspberry Pi, and lo and behold it says Element 14 on it

[@GreenBOI-rEaL]

is that mr volt

[@Natsomari]

It’s really cool, if you don’t like the wrist mount you could do a belt mount like the old cassette player

[@railroadmillion681]

Maybe next time, don't forget the radio. It's not a pipboy without a radio.

[@gunningap5065]

The pip pad was not wearable but was lore friendly

[@vaultdweller966]

Great work!

[@tylerufen]

nice sound on the rotary

[@bulwinkle]

Of course you don't want to set the world on fire, they do a good job in other places, like CA.

[@EthanDoezYT]

So if you wanted to for the lcd display your using for this. You could have put a plastic Fresnel lens on the screen and it would have worked fine.

[@TheKrimzonGhost]

I used 4" PVC pipe and a 4" Coupling screwed them together added a hinge and a toolbox clasp closure.

[@TheKrimzonGhost]

I call mine a junk boy since I made it out of what I had..lol

[@mattvelasquez6664]

Awesome video I was wondering we're did you get those pants

[@johnharris8335]

You could have made a Pip-pad from the Pip-pad mod which is confirmed canon by Bethesda.

[@netdudeuk]

A good project thanks. What's the development environment at 15:34 ?

[@lionoh]

The pipPad is the best.

[@adventureoflinkmk2]

You got a riveter? Is its first name... ROSIE?! 😏

[@skyrider1a]

Topgfd

[@skyrider1a]

Tyj.

[@gamepad3153]

another thing is to get the Pipboy to interact with the ingame one.

[@OriginalAceXD]

You know. Combining them all makes it slightly more expensive than the og pipboi

[@AdolphusOfBlood]

Extremely high deflection CRT's draw exponentially more power the more degrees they have to deflect. so yeah that is not really an option without fusion batteries like in the games.

[@hyper847]

one thing that i vehemently dislike is the vertical screen

[@GaloMatagayIII]

Maybe you can add a mini keyboard that can hide behind the switches (flips open and when flipped closed the switches are visible)

[@DouglasWalrath]

add a GSM 4G modem and u can add telephony and internet connectivity features

[@protoborg]

How exactly are the controls unrealistic in the game? You basically had the same controls on yours.

[@zachbohemian]

I'll like if this technology becomes real and develop

[@OndrejSvinciak-qr7uc]

damn near perfect 😄😄😄😄😄😍😍😍😍😍

[@elbreezybrizzle]

Hi there I was wondering if you could give me the codeing for the pip boy you made so i can make one for my self.

[@MAYERMAKES]

and again I'm jealous of your metalwork and python gui skills....

[@endertgyjvcvcdfg]

I'd wear it

[@toddguden2816]

I have made a pipboy myself but cannot get any code to work correctly, any suggestions on code

[@sammytimgaming2947]

Will you make an update

[@BaronSolace]

this is really cool, but....the screen is located to the right of the control box in old fallout lol

[@ohyeahyeah4267]

MK3 when?

[@luxzartheglorious]

My biggest question is how did you make the UI

[@americanrebel413]

Cool!

[@finnmckenzie5731]

These guys used to be the biggest British computer company and now no one has heard of them

[@fox.9879]

i have a 4x4 keypad from raspberry pi and i want to use it to emulate keyboard presses within raspbarian does anyone know how to do this

[@LazyBunnyKiera]

It looks cool. A few tips though.. 30AWG Solid-core Kynar wire. It's often called Mod-wire since it's used for modchips. It's perfect for these tiny projects. This is in my Steel Battalion joystick. Just an example of how neat this Kynar wire is. i.imgur.com/SBoMyVt.jpg i.imgur.com/ssPNcOu.jpg Get multiple colors. I ran out of a few, so i had mostly red left. Try for a 5" screen and a narrower bezel? Also, if you use a larger screen, thinner bezels, and smaller wire and give yourself more room to work with.. Add a Geiger counter. www.ebay.com/itm/273049840938 And then add a 5v analog meter www.ebay.com/itm/152675816468 And change the backdrop of the 5v meter to be more in line with the rad displays on a real pipboy. So as the rads go up, even a tiny bit, have the 5v meter needle/wiper go up considerably.

[@travismoore7849]

That looks more like a mark 1 pip boy.

[@Zishi05]

Is that a PIP BOY! id sell my left arm for one of those

[@riceniceman548]

We need an update

[@trustyvault13canteen32]

Does it ask you for 100$ a year and if you pay it does it delete all your loot?

[@luxzartheglorious]

*you take a sip from your trusty vault 13 canteen*

[@corneliusrosenaa3949]

WHAT ABOUT THE PIMP PIP BOY.(The best one)

[@LordThree]

Seems like radio would be the easiest

[@jawesome59]

Could I commission one of these?

[@memoriblewerd]

I want to build something like this but I am an amateur,no I know nothing and can’t seem to learn programming at all it’s so frustrating

[@disciple1381]

Cool idea, but as a personal computer, it does nothing useful. But props for being able to do it

[@disciple1381]

Not a pip boy

[@fox.9879]

can anyone help me i want to make a wearable Altair 8800 with preferably a raspberry pi cause i have 2 of them and dont have an Arduino and i want it to have a screen and slide out keyboard i just want to know how i can combine all these things

[@dandysock1197]

I think It would have been better off as a pip pad

[@MrDennis8169]

Nice ;-)

[@curiousentertainment3008]

He made the pip-pad

[@thecokeman7037]

use an old Bentley portable TV thay are like 40 to 50 $ on ebay

[@jpnc2319]

shut up and take my money!

[@landenallen1994]

Ahem pre-war money isnt accepted here caps only

[@Garnet9673]

REQUIRES PLAYER ABILITY TO CONTROLL seatch fsllout 4 pip boy animation jeez also wweres thr lil pip 3000 from van buren

[@invaliduser9395]

Looks more like a pip pad

[@jgc9911]

I am severely underwhelmed

[@jowb88]

or...just thinking... port out a smart watch

[@Cherub-vl9bc]

If you wanted to make it lore plausible youd have to not use transistors

[@Omnis_Ra]

nice idea but I'm not a fan of the design.

[@koushiroizumi0]

No rad detector? It's not a Pipboy.

[@Koragh_]

Shoud had been called mutifruit lol

[@swedenvendor7076]

Foxxy 🦊 make one for me $$

[@swedenvendor7076]
