Think Tank

A think tank is a special type of brain bot. It consists of a robotic body housing a human brain with three monitors coming down from the robot's chassis. Two of these monitors depict eyes and the other depicts a mouth. It allows a person to continue living by using their brain as a power source, and also by providing a container and mobile platform so the operating brain may observe and approach various items.

It uses the same principle of a robobrain: the brain is held inside of a hardened glass container (which can be many colors) at the top and suspended in pressurized bio med gel. They are able to communicate verbally due to a voice module which is integrated into the robotic chassis and connected to the brain. If damaged, the think tank can continue to communicate but only through radio waves. Despite not being designed for fighting, a self-guiding electric weapon at the back of the think tank can be used for limited self-defense against enemies.

Background
The "Think Tank Project" was a scientific project created in the Big Mountain Research and Development Center. The project's purpose was to preserve six extremely talented scientists. These now-robotic scientists are Mobius, Klein, Dala, 0, 8, and Borous.

Appearances
Think tanks appear in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Old World Blues and were to appear in the cancelled Black Isle Studios project Fallout Van Buren.

Behind the scenes

 * In Fallout Tactics, a similar principle of human brain bot was also used on Simon Barnaky by the robots of the Calculator, his brain was implanted into a large robotic suit.
