Overview
The Unifi Dice are sophisticated electronic devices that transmit their orientation every
time they change orientation, are moved1, or detect the presence of a magnetic field2. The
dice are supplied as either a single die (with a choice of Red, White, or Black) or in a set of
three, in a custom case that doubles as an automatic on/off switch.
As a result of being manufactured to strict specifications, the dice look and feel 100%
authentic. Additionally, Black, White, and Red are internationally recognized dice colors
that add to the legitimacy for your spectator.
The dice boast a host of advanced features, including:
•Available in either 16mm or 19mm.
•The dice are wirelessly charged, allowing the units to be completely sealed and
waterproof, providing you years of reliable performances.
•Notification via a wireless thumper, miniaturized color LCD, or audio announcements
using a hidden Bluetooth earpiece.
•Identification of the color and orientation for each die.
•Plain English voice announcements that eliminate the need to memorize complex
vibration sequences.
•Notification of simultaneous, multiple dice rolls, identifying the color and history.
•The integrated magnetic field and motion sensor allow for the cleanest version of the
“which hand” effect.
•Direct integration into Inject 2, Thermal Printers, Time Prediction Devices, Prevision,
and the integrated fake search. The roll of the dice can automatically generate lotto
numbers, license plate numbers, or even serial numbers for Thermal Printers &
Prevision.
•Professional carry case, with inbuilt sleep function.
•Each die is uniquely coded with an Electronic Serial Number (ESN), which assures no
false notifications from any other devices.
•Apple iPhone and Apple Watch Integration provide visual identification of the results
from all the rolled dice.

Important Notice
The Unifi Dice utilize Lithium Polymer (LiPo) Batteries. LiPo Batteries are the latest in
battery technology, enabling much higher capacity in a significantly reduced footprint.
LiPo technology is used extensively in cellphones, wearable devices, and smartwatches.
If LiPo batteries become fully discharged, the battery
becomes permanently damaged and will no longer charge.
As a precaution, once the battery level falls below 30% (the equivalent of six months
battery life), then the dice will turn off.
It is essential that you fully charge the dice at least once every six months.If you leave
your equipment on the shelf for greater than six months without charging, you run the risk
of the unit needing to be returned to Illuminati Magic for repair/replacement.
When fully charged, batteries will last up to 18 months before becoming discharged.

Carry Case
The carry case consists of a dice holder (to hold either one or three dice) and a sliding
cover that snaps closed to protect your dice.
Features of the carry case include:
•A durable hard case to protect your investment.
•Magnets within the base to automatically turn the dice on/off.
•Discreet “tabs” on the dice holder to secure it within the cover.
Indentations on internal dice holder (1 and 6) show the
correct orientation to insert the dice into the holder

Switching On/Off
To turn the dice on, simply remove the dice from the carry case, and they will power up
automatically.
To turn the dice off, place them in the carry case with the three (3) pip side facing down
and the four (4) pip side facing up. Align the one (1) and six (6) pips with the corresponding
indentations in the tray dividers, and the dice will power down after ten (10) seconds3.
Additionally, the dice have an inactivity timer; so that after sixty minutes4of no activity,
they will power down automatically. The dice have a magnetic field sensor so that when a
magnetic field is applied for more than ten seconds, the dice will power down.
The magnetic on/off switch is located closest to the one (1) pip, and applying and removing
a magnetic field from this area will “wake up” the dice from their sleep mode during a
performance (for example, a PK ring can activate the dice).
3The default power down time is ten (10) seconds, however this may be factory
programmed up to 18 hours.
4The default sleep time time is sixty (60) minutes, however this may be factory
programmed up to 18 hours.

Charging
The dice are wirelessly charged, using a technology called “Qi-Charging” (pronounced
“chi”). The charging coil is located on the side with three pips on the die and should be
placed directly on the gold circle, as indicated below:
•Place the die with the three (3) pips facing down on the die image of the charger.
•A correctly positioned die on the charger will be indicated by the Red “Charging” LED
becoming illuminated.
•A die placed on the charger in an “On” state, will indicate a “Charging” message on the
Notifier (if the die is off, it will still charge, but it will not transmit notifications to the
Notifier).
•A fully charged die will provide two to three months of regular use.
•A full charge may take approximately two hours.

The charging coils on the dice are very small, so it is crucial to align the charging coils
precisely – if you hear constant beeping from the charger, this indicates that the die is not
perfectly aligned on the charger.

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.

Thumper
The Thumper receives messages from Dice, Dominoes, Poker Chips, Pen Sense,
ColorSense, Magneto, and Second Sight.
The Thumper will vibrate to indicate the result of the dice roll. To keep the vibrate
sequences manageable, Unifi has adopted the vibrate sequences detailed below
(regardless of whether the notification is triggered from a change in orientation,
movement, or magnetic field).
If the Thumper detects a low battery on any Unifi device (or the Thumper has a low
battery), the Thumper will generate a single long vibrate.
You can utilize the Unifi App or Notifier to determine which Unifi device caused the low
battery notification.

Adjusting Vibrator Settings
The Thumper has an integrated vibrator that discreetly communicates signals to the
performer. The Unifi devices transmit their signals multiple times, just in case there is
interference that prevents the Thumper from receiving the message.
Every event is uniquely coded, which prevents duplicate signals from being processed by
the Thumper.
Enable Vibrator
The Enable Vibrator option will enable or disable the onboard vibrator on the Thumper.
Even with the vibrator disabled, the Thumper will continue to process events from Unifi
devices, but will not vibrate to indicate the result.
If you are utilizing the Unifi App or the Apple Watch to notify you as to the status of the
events, then you may wish to disable the vibrator.
Number of Vibration Repeats
The Thumper may be programmed to repeat the vibrate sequences up to four additional
times plus the original notification (i.e., a total of five vibrate sequences).
The Thumper will only vibrate the most recent event. For example, if the dice has rolled a
three and the number of repeats is four (at 15-second intervals), then this will take 60
seconds. If the dice is rolled again within this time, then the latest result is vibrated, and
the repeat sequence starts again.

Page 16
Time Period between vibrates
The “Time Period between Vibrates” is the time between successive vibrate signals. The
time period is the gap between one vibrate sequence finishing and the next (repeated)
vibrate sequence commencing.
Vibrate Length
The “Vibrate Length” allows you to adjust the amount of time the Thumper will vibrate.
The longer the vibrate sequence is, the easier it is to feel, but at the expense of speed.
The default times are 200ms for a short vibrate, 600ms for a long vibrate with a 200ms
pause between the vibrate signals. There is a 1000ms gap between successive vibrate
sequences.
Vibrate Strength
You can change the strength of the vibrate motor in the Thumper. The stronger the vibrate
motor, the louder the vibrate motor is.
By default, the vibrate motor is set to the strongest vibrate sequence as the Thumper
was developed to keep the noise levels to a minimum.

Notifier
Notifier receives messages from Dice, Dominos, Poker Chips, Pen Sense, Color Sense,
Magneto, and Second Sight.
The most recent notification is displayed on the screen. For example, if the spectator rolls
a Red dice with a result of three, then this will be displayed on the screen. If you then use
Second Sight to scan an RFID playing card, this result will override the display.
Specific devices support a “grouping” mode, whereby the display will “split” into multiple
segments. This mode is particularly useful for Dice, Dominoes, and Second Sight.
The order of the notifications is displayed, based upon the power-up order of the dice. For
example, if you power up the Black die first, then the Red die second, the order will be
Black on the left and Red on the right.
Status Notifications
The dice is a sophisticated electronic device that transmits its orientation every time it is
moved or detects the presence of a magnetic field (such as a PK Ring).
The dice can be programmed in a range of formats, including; Casino Pips, Classic
Elements, Emoji, ESP Symbols, Rubiks Cube, Shapes, and Zodiac Symbols.
The Notifier will display the outcome of the dice roll, with the appropriate graphic,
depending upon which style of dice you are using. The background color indicates the
color of the dice.
If you roll multiple dice, the screen will split into multiple different segments, so that it can
display the result from up to three different dice simultaneously.

System Messages
Whenever an Unifi device powers up or powers down, it sends a notification message to
Notifier.
This includes the device type, its serial number, and battery status and enables you to test
your devices in advance of your gig quickly.
When the dice turn on, they transmit the following information to the Notifiers:
•Power Up.
•Type of dice and color (e.g., “White Casino Dice” or “ESP Cube”).
•Current battery status (e.g., “Good,” “Low,” or “Critical”).
•Firmware Version (e.g., “Version 1.09”)
•The serial number of the dice (e.g., “S/N 1234”)
•Assigned description (e.g., “My Dice”)
