#SmartPlay

2026-03-16

Some snapshots from another YouTube video (from user Zerobrain) showing the teardown of #LEGO #SmartBrick. It also includes the charger. But this time no minifig. It shows a different perspective... but again very destructive. And it's in German.

Looks like a crime scene. I've done it myself: opened the #LEGO #SmartBrick. Unfortunately I've also accidentally cut some wires (not visible in the photo). Interestingly the NFC tag reading part still works though. Don't know about BrickNet though (brick to brick communication). However, that should work via Bluetooth LE. So maybe I just broke some sensing part. Off to more some other day...

The Smart Brick opened up with its transparent block. A lot of black brittle in the background.

Video "What’s Inside A LEGO SMART BRICK????" — Another teardown. A little less destructive it seems, as their brick still lights up.
They probably "only" damaged the wires around the actual brick. Downloaded from Instagram (user samwyattbricks), because I don't have it and you probably also don't.

Dear #LEGO #SmartBrick hackers + interested folks. I've just published another git repository on Codeberg and called it #SmartBrickToolkit: codeberg.org/maehw/SmartBrickT -- currently it contains a Python tool to analyze firmware images (to be extracted from the SMART Assist APK). Happy to receive contributions and work on this together. Thanks to @nkellenicki for publishing his findings. This is mainly based on his work! Let me know when you've tried it out!

Today, I couldn't resist any longer a finally got me a #LEGO #SmartPlay set: Star Wars
(75423) Luke's Red Five X-Wing. Seeing all the content around, I've tried to add something myself: #FlipperZero meets LEGO #SmartTag. The #SmartBrick is also around. This has been my first attempt to record, cut and release a video — so please don't be too hard on me. It's about 1 minute long only.

#LEGO #SmartPlay hacking continued: as the Smart Minifigs and Smart Tiles comply with standard ISO 15693 NFC, they can be copied. So this had to be done. The clone works totally fine with the original #SmartBrick.

"Hacking the Brick:)
First step: the tags
are clonable"

Two fingers are holding a LEGO Smart Brick. Darth Vader minifig is visible in the top part, cloned tag currently covered by the brickHex dump of the NFC tag's content of the Smart Minifig just mentioned before

Die aktuelle #Lego #StarWars #SmartPlay-Serie ist ja auch mehr so ein Autounfall.
