The robot's name is SMRT-1

Advertisement published in the National Geographic, December 1984 :

We do a lot more at Epcot Center than make SMRT-1smart.

The robot's name is SMRT-1, (pronounced "smart one"). He can recognize your voice, and challenge you to a variety of exciting games. And we're the power behind him.

Along with robot power, our computers provide continuous monitoring of every attraction at Epcot Center.

They oversee security and energy management throughout the Walt Disney World resort. And over 18,000 Walt Disney World employees depend on them for up-to-the-minute work schedules based on that day's actual number of guests.

We help bring imagination to life at Epcot Center, and we're helping its dreams, from robotics to energy management, become realities worldwide.
