Awesome Institute Easter Egg!

[Audrey]

Hello, fellow vault dwellers!
This post is about an Easter egg that, to my knowledge, has not been discovered yet. Have you noticed that the Institute logo is the same as the Nova Industries logo in the movie "Short Circuit"? If you haven't watched that movie, do. It's awesome. What's ironic about this is that the movie is about a war-robot who becomes self-aware and believes he is alive. Isn't that the goal of the Institute to create lifelike robots? Just a fun little Easter egg you might not have noticed.

Nice catch man, I can honestly say I saw that show and liked it, but it was decades ago and would have never noticed it, lol.

I was going to pick on how both logos are based on Da Vinci's 'Vitruvian Man' sketch... but the background story does pull it together into something intentional. Good catch.

Fair warning that Vitruvian Man is technically a 526 year old nude drawing.
