Lego

In its first CES appearance, Lego introduced the Smart Brick, a standard-sized brick with a 4.1mm ASIC chip inside that’s designed to reply in several methods relying on what set you’re constructing and the way you’re constructing it. Utilizing what Lego calls the “Play Engine” and built-in copper coils, every brick can sense issues like movement, orientation and magnetic fields, plus its personal distance, path and orientation in relation to different Sensible Bricks. Every brick additionally has a teeny tiny speaker inbuilt that can play audio “tied to stay play actions” reasonably than solely pre-recorded clips.

All of those items tie collectively by way of a neighborhood wi-fi layer dubbed BrickNet that, partially, lets Sensible Bricks know the place they are positioned in relation to different good elements.

The primary “Smart Play” companion is, unsurprisingly, Star Wars, which is able to launch three “all-in-one” units utilizing Sensible Bricks, Sensible Tags and Sensible Minifigures.
