There are also hostile robobrains at HELIOS One, Vault 11, the H&H Tools factory and Big MT. One can be found overlooking Hoover Dam near Ranger Station Delta, working for the NCR. Robobrains appear in the Mojave, though they are much rarer than they are in the Capital Wasteland. Coupled with a robust, all-terrain tracked chassis and powerful armaments, the Robobrain was on the forefront of a new revolution in combat robotics. 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. Characteristicsĭeveloped by General Atomics International with the assistance of RobCo Industries, the Robobrain was designed from the ground up as a multirole platform for use by military and civilian clients. Some private companies closely affiliated with the government did receive a limited number of completed Robobrains for security purposes, like the Vault-Tec Corporation. These included the Sierra Army Depot VI, Mariposa Military Base, and the West Tek Research Facility on the West Coast and other locations in the East. Units deemed combat-capable were assigned on a provisional basis to select locations across the United States, for security and janitorial duties. Each batch provided superior upgrades to the robot, including increased energy efficiency, maintaining brain longevity, improved visual cortex connections to enhance motor skills and perception, and tactical combat capabilities. RB-2851 alone managed to complete three batches, with a further two planned. Although the first brains were procured from primates (typically chimpanzees), persistent equipment failure in brain extractors that were incapable of working at an industrial capacity, and flaws in the immature technology used to manufacture Robobrain chassis resulted in a limited trial run. Until its closure, SAD experimented with developing a new kind of cybernetic brain explicitly designed for use in Robobrains, while RB-2851 focused on manufacturing and iterating on existing solutions. Persistent problems with aggression and violence even in properly CODE-conditioned Robobrains caused major problems for General Atomics.
