Win DJ's Pip-Boy 2000 as featured in Episode 417

 

Many of our Friday project videos are based on games - computer games, video games, games people play. . .  It takes someone like DJ to bring the perfect Venn diagram of love of the game, (in this case, the post-apocalyptic Fallout video game franchise), the imagination to visualize the props from the games working in real life and the technical chops to actually make it happen.  Ladies and gentlemen, we present the Pip-Boy 2000 Mk II.

 

We're raiding the vault of builds from element14 presents and giving them away to Community members to help us celebrate our upcoming 500th episode which will feature three of our video hosts competing in the Build Inside the Box 500 challenge.

 

To win this unique and functional build, simply tell us about a technology gadget from your favorite video game or sci-fi show that you would like to see an IRL version.

 

If you've built it, seen someone else build it, or wish someone would just build it already - tell us in the comments below.

 

DJ's taken a swing through a lot of his favorites - so if you're looking for inspiration, check out these past episodes:

Episode 378: Invader ZIM Animatronic GIR

Episode 411: Animatronic Claptrap Computer Case - Part 1

Episode 413:  Animatronic Claptrap Case Mod - Part 2

Episode 470: Voice Activated Inspector Gadget Hat

Episode 394: Animatronic GLaDOS Head with Raspberry Pi

 

Tell us which is your favorite (and why) or tell us about something you built or something you would like to see created.  The element14 Community team will pick the best comment to win the Pip-Boy.

  • I have to admit, my son and I have long looked at the Pip-Boy 2000 and pondered on making one.  The lack of an available 3d printer always made us set aside that wonderful project.  I wonder if the new compute module would be able to be worked into a build of one...

     

    Other wonderful ideas range from those super cool clear panel notepads that function as full tablets but when turned off are clear to some type of mini-monitor that could be incorporated into something like a Star Wars helmet.  Imagine the Boba Fett classic targeting module that swung down for him to fire his missile in The Mandalorian.  I keep waiting for Google Glass to come available but...  :-)
