Magnetic Switch Puzzle for Escape Room Games

FrightProps demonstrates a magnetic switch puzzle controller designed for escape rooms and haunted attractions. Hidden magnets are concealed inside props or statues, and when each one is brought close enough to its corresponding hall effect sensor, that sensor triggers. Once all sensors in the chain have been activated, the board fires a configurable output — toggling a solution element on or off based on user settings.
