Circuit neuralizer

Circuit neuralizers are an advanced technology used with robotics and android technology.

Background
Following the Great War, it is only used by highly elite groups and expert scientists. The Institute in the Commonwealth use them, and show surprise at Horace Pinkerton for ontaining one in the Capital Wasteland. Pinkerton built one out of spare parts using blueprints he retrieved from Vault 112 as a guide, and used it in his facial reconstruction and mind wipe of A3-21. The purpose of a circuit neuralizer is relatively unknown, but it's function can be inferred by the work done on A3-21.

Appearances
Circuit neuralizers are mentioned only in Fallout 3.
