Imagineer Podcast

Walt Disney Imagineer Lanny Smoot was recently inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame, the first Imagineer and the second person at Disney to ever receive this distinction (the first was Walt Disney). With over 25 years as a Disney Research Fellow and Walt Disney Imagineer, Lanny Smoot has filed over 106 patents (74 for Disney), including the technology that makes it possible for Madame Leota's head to float in the Haunted Mansion seance room and the exciting new HoloTile floor.   In this episode, I have the honor of chatting with Lanny about his inventions, his career at Walt Disney Imagineering, and his thoughts on becoming a part of the National Inventors Hall of Fame.   What is your favorite invention, illusion or special effect created by Walt Disney Imagineering? Tag me and join the conversation below.
