The Smart Brick is the same size as a regular 4x2 Lego piece and is universal, meaning you could put the same brick in any number of Lego sets and have a different result.

Lego celebrated 15 years of Ninjago with three limited-edition models, and a fourth is up for preorder now.
Lego’s Smart Bricks differ from earlier tech-enabled Lego products by using wireless charging pads (avoiding disposable batteries) and boasting batteries that will still perform after years of inactivity.
