Of the many smart gadgets that are being unveiled at CES 2019, one of the most charming takes the form of intelino's smart train toy, which is playfully branded as a "train with a brain."
In terms of looks, the train toy retains the toy's classic form but boasts updated features for an enhanced interactive experience. The train tracks are dual-sided and interlocking, making it the system easy to play with right out of the box, as well as link up with classic wooden tracks.
Thanks to built-in sensors, the smart train toy offers both screen-free and app-centric play modes for controlling speed, movement and even the steering at junctions. While young players will appreciate paired-back play modes, the robotic train toy also offers more of a challenge for older users with an in-app dashboard and real-time feedback.
