The Pip-Boy 3000 replica is a wearable electronic device created by Bethesda in collaboration with The Wand Company and modeled directly from the wrist computer seen in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. The Pip-Boy 3000 replica features a 4-inch IPS LCD display that reproduces the games’ menus and interfaces, allowing users to scroll through maps, stats, and inventory screens using physical dials and buttons on the device. The interface can switch between the green display style used in Fallout 3 and the amber interface from New Vegas.
The wearable device includes several built-in functions such as an FM radio, flashlight, headphone jack, alarm clock mode, and a playable version of the in-game minigame Atomic Command. A simulated Geiger counter measures radiation from FM radio broadcasts and displays readings with sound effects that mimic the franchise’s radiation detection system.
