System Architecture
It is beneficial to understand how the Unifi platform works – once you have a solid understanding
of the system architecture, you will be able to develop your own unprecedented, mind-blowing
routines.
The Dice, Dominoes, Poker Chips, Second Sight, Magneto, ColorSense, and Pen Sense all transmit
on the “Industrial, Scientific & Medical” (ISM) band. Every Thumper and Notifier within range
receives signals from the Unifi devices and responds accordingly.
You may have multiple Thumpers and Notifiers receiving the same message (for example, if you
have a backstage assistant who needs to prepare a revelation for you).
Additionally, Unifi utilizes Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) – a bidirectional communications protocol
that is used extensively in the technology industry.
Many electronic mentalism vendors utilize BLE as it provides an extremely reliable and open
standard, permitting high levels of interoperability.
BLE is a “peer-to-peer” communications protocol – one device connected to another device and
was not intended to be a broadcast protocol (hence why Unifi utilizes the ISM Band to broadcast
signals).
The Thumper and Second Sight support both ISM Band and BLE communications, allowing them
to communicate with the Unifi App.
The Unifi App integrates with the Apple Watch, enabling you to utilize your Apple Watch as a peek
device as well as a remote control to send predictions to third-party platforms.
