VR pod

A VR pod, also referred to as a lounger, Tranquility lounger, or TL pod,  is a world object that allows the user to experience virtual reality simulations in a controlled environment.

Characteristics
The pod consists of a chair facing a screen, with hardware and wires running within and out the back. Pods in Vault 112 use a Think Machine 3600r mainframe. Civilian versions have built-in security protocols enabled, whereas military variants do not.

Capital Wasteland
Twelve loungers are on the main floor of the Vault 112, nine of which are inhabited by its former occupants, one by James, one is broken, and one reserved for the Lone Wanderer. Another lounger, which is occupied by Dr. Stanislaus Braun, is located in his office.

The loungers measure their occupant's vital signs, and are equipped with stasis devices, allowing for user to be kept alive for prolonged periods of time. A Vault 112 jumpsuit is required to enter a lounger, which runs a simulation designed by Dr. Braun.

Another pod is located in the Outcast outpost. It is running a recreation of the Battle of Anchorage, designed by Virtual Strategic Solutions, for the purposes of analyzing the operation and mining all possible data. These simulations were altered on orders from General Constantine Chase.

Mojave Wasteland
The Hidden Valley bunker has four pods on Level 2, which run combat simulations based on old VR tapes salvaged and expanded upon by Head Scribe Taggart. The are used by members of the Mojave Brotherhood of Steel to hone their skills in combat during the lockdown. Nellis Air Force Base has three pods that are used to train pilots. The Boomers use them to simulate shooting down Xian-85 fighters.

Appearances
VR pods appear in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas.
