The Robobrain is a next-generation cyborg appearing throughout the Fallout series. Developed by General Atomics International and the US Army with indirect support from RobCo Industries, the Robobrain was designed from the ground up as a multirole platform for use by military and civilian clients. They are more flexible and powerful than robots due to the fact that their central control and processing unit is an actual brain, rather than an artificial facsimile. Coupled with a robust, all-terrain tracked chassis and powerful armaments, the Robobrain was on the forefront of a new revolution in combat robotics.
Now that a part of General Atomics has been liberated the production of Robobrains is for the greater good of all, with the new General Atomics Liberated! This nationalized corporation shall be directly controlled by RELCOM where it will spearhead the conversion of all fleshy lifeforms into perfect, flawless machines.
Sweeper
Created for the conversion of smaller life forms, Sweepers have the brains of cats, dogs, and various other small animals that could be as small as mice. Sweepers do various tasks that include cleaning, limited maintenance, and small-time security lookouts for facilities.
Beginning of a new era!
One of the most widespread and popular models in RobCo Industries' catalogue, the Protectron was designed as an inexpensive work drone, capable of performing a wide variety of tasks from construction, through security, to office duties. Produced from at least 2063, it's a compact, bipedal work drone with a pair of manipulators and integrated lasers for self-defense. The large dome contains the primary optic sensors (usually three) and the central processing unit that contains the robot's synthetic personality. For ease of maintenance, the Protectron is typically powered by a fission battery. As it was not intended for combat, at least not as a direct combatant, the Protectron only has a thin alloyed shell meant to protect its internal components from the environment and damage that could be sustained in the course of its duties. However, the internal temperature of certain Protectrons can reach up to 1000 degrees for cooking foods, giving them extreme internal heat resistance. The head assembly is typically shielded by a semi-transparent or opaque dome from reinforced glass. Although various hardware modifications were introduced before the war to enhance its effectiveness.
Eyebot
The Eyebot is a hovering all-purpose robot with whip-like radio antennas resembling long "whiskers" pointing to its back and loudspeakers in the front. Uses of Eyebots vary and have been known to include the spreading of propaganda, reconnaissance, and surveillance, delivering messages, and even repair and medical services.
Vertibird
The Vertibird is a twin-engine, VTOL aircraft with a heavily armored fuselage. It utilizes a unique bug-like canopy that allows the pilot (left) and co-pilot/navigator (right) sitting side by side to see as much as possible while in flight. All gauges in the cockpit are mechanical with the exception of the Vertical Display Indicator which uses a CRT screen (located on the pilot side). It can be outfitted with a variety of offensive weapons and defensive countermeasures, the most common being Gatling lasers, missile racks, and a mini nuke bay. It is unknown how a Vertibird is powered; however, former Vertibird pilot Daisy Whitman mentions the existence of a combustible fuel source. It has a winch that can haul several tons of equipment - or a large deathclaw cage.
