Biographic projector

The biographic projector was a machine owned by Applied Cryogenics that would review a persons life and help the Fate Assignment Officer determine what job the defrostee was best suited for. The projector is remote control operated and resembles a large flat-screen television atop numerous control panels. In the storyboard for "Space Pilot 3000", Leela hooked Fry up to the machine and it displayed his life before he was frozen. The projector showed Fry shortly after his birth, and then images of Fry as a teenager (in Dave Borden's office, watching The Simpsons, and in A.V. club), and then Fry fighting with Janet about working on New Year's Eve 1999. After showing his life, the machine determined that Fry is a loser and assigned him as a delivery boy, much to his displeasure.

Trivia

 * The biographic projector was cut in in the final episode. Instead, Fry's fate is determined in Leela's office after he goes through the probulator.
