The Smart Brick System is completely modular. If one

you to wire an entire attraction by just stringing up a six

maintenance, and then run them both on a service

bench away from the rest of the show for testing and

adjustment. A Smart Brick System can consist of any

combination of record/playback Smart Bricks,

and the Smart Brick Brain configured to match the
