Story
Magic Wonders is the open platform for magic. Wand One is an AI-powered smart wand for dueling friends, exploring live adventures, controlling your smart home, creating magical experiences, making music and much more.
Every gesture is a spell that can trigger real lights, sounds, screens and props around you.
The video, Endless Magic, shows in about 41 seconds:
1. Snapping a crystal onto the wand tip to change your power.
2. A wand duel on a TV screen, with light bars reacting under it.
3. A dice roll cast for tabletop games like D&D and LARP.
4. Making music with the wand and an AR game over a real bookshelf.
5. A cast toward sphere lamps on a shelf, then the Connected Life app with IFTTT, Matter, webhooks and Alexa options.
6. A bedtime cast, a glowing prop cauldron and a glowing book for creators, venues and escape rooms.
How it works in plain terms:
- Super Early Bird backers get Wand One for $169, with limited spots on the Kickstarter page.
- Simple setups can run through Alexa.
- Advanced setups can use IFTTT or webhooks (Living Magic Pass).
- Matter and Bluetooth device control are supported in the Connected Life app.
- A no-code Playground for linking gestures to actions is coming soon.
