Once believed to be impossible, a true miracle-level effect is now possible thanks to “The Bat System” by Wings Magic.

“The Bat System” introduces the world of mentalism and card magic to a powerful principle that offers incredible potential. Just like bats use echo waves to hunt in the dark, “The Bat System” utilizies UHD radio waves to secretly get information to you.

Using a specially-made monitor and RFID reader, “The Bat System” can tell you exactly what playing card a spectator is holding. The reader can be discreetly placed up to 3 meters away and you don’t even need to be in the same room to get the transmission as the monitor works up to an unprecedented 15 meters away.

“The Bat System” is covert, fast and precise. As soon as they select the card, you know exactly what it is. Several intelligent working modes are included to provide different performance capabilities, including a remarkable Gambler’s mode that allows you to know every single card in a player’s hand at a glance.

BONUS EFFECTS
As a special bonus, you’ll also receive 5 RFID casino chips, 5 RFID ESP cards and 5 blank RFID tags that can also be used with “The Bat System”. Attach them to anything you want for ultimate flexibility with “The Bat System” outside of the world of card tricks.

”The Bat System” System Comes With

  • Special RFID reader
  • Monitor
  • Custom-made RFID Playing Cards (Bicycle Maiden BAck)
  • 5 RFID ESP cards
  • 5 RFID casino chips
  • 5 blank RFID tags

“The Bat System FAQ

Does “The Bat System” work with ordinary playing cards?
No. You must use the included deck of cards as it has been specially-designed with it’s own RFID system. Each deck has a different code and reader combo. So you won’t ever have to worry about any interference, even if you own two RFID decks.

Does the spectator need to place their card in a certain place?
The large range of the reader is incredibly accurate within about a 2 meter range. They won’t have to do anything special with the card. However, above ~2 meters, and up to the max range ~3 meters, it is possible that the reader has to be pointed toward the cards for the best accuracy and quickest results.

Does the sensing range vary within the different objects?
Yes, the max 3-meter sensing range for the reader applies to the playing card and ESP cards only. Since the RFID chips in the poker chips and blank tags are smaller, the sensing range is roughly 10 centimers.

How long does the battery last?
“The Bat System” has a great battery life of up to 3 hours for the monitor and nearly 2 hours for the reader. So you can set it up long before your show begins. There is also a battery percentage indicator on the monitor for both itself and the reader, so you’ll always be able to perform with confidence.

Customer reviews for The Bat System

Derek
So yes, obviously this is expensive. Not really I need to debate the price – if you have a use for this dash it does what it says it will do, and very well. The multicard reading function is amazing. You can have your spectator pick out a whole poker hand out I’d the deck, and you will know what they hold. The “only “caveat I have is, I think it’s important to know that the cards supplied are not real cards. They are manufactured to look like a bicycle made in deck, and likely, most spectators wouldn’t know the difference. But they are slightly thicker than normal cards (maybe 10 cards thicker on a full deck) And have a very different feel to them. Again, likely a layperson wouldn’t suspect they are not normal cards, but a magician can tell just by looking at them. If they were able to put this technology into a normal deck of cards, I would easily pay three times the amount
Manuel



The built-in technology works flawlessly. I tested with the receiver 15 feet from the transmitter, it read the cards almost immediately.

You can even deal several cards at a time onto a table and each will be presented on the screen of the receiver. It even has a gambler’s mode where up to five hands of five will be displayed remotely.

Included in the kit are RFID poker chips and ESP cards. In addition, extra RFID chips, that could be hidden in any object are enclosed. The possibilities are unlimited.

The transmitter easily fits into a regular tuck box. They do supply a card box that has an opening in the rear for peeking the receiver if needed. The reliever can be magnetically attached to the transmitter. The combined unit then fits perfectly inside with the window of the receiver exposed.

The RFID cards are a bit thicker and heavier than a normal deck. They come in a box modified to accommodate the extra thickness of the cards.

The product itself is wonderful. So far, in my experience, it works as advertised.

I’m deducting one star because the tutorial is only around 20 minutes long. No live performance videos or suggested applications were included. This is close to a $1000 product! The tutorial barely touched on the bare essentials. Is this a trend in expensive electronic devices? I recently purchased the Pitata White board, another costly item. Again the tutorial was very skimpy.
Kelsey
The other reviews here go into the details- All I can say is that this works as it was made to work. I used the deck of cards and had a person shuffle the cards who was very used to handling cards and all this person said was 'a brand new deck!'- he was none the wiser even after handling the deck. Yes this is not inexpensive. But the possibilities are endless with this system- and really really ease of use. No slight of hand used. No lengthy tutorial but none needed- If you are a professional magician you should easily be able to develop your own routine with this system. This system makes YOUR routine easy- you can focus on your acting skills and creativity without having to over focus and be distracted with hidden maneuvers or restricted angles- no helper needed easily used as a single entertainer. If you are serious about growing your performance art this is a great addition and worth the price.

  • Jhj asks: Hi, I rephrased my question as it must have been a little confusing: 1. Can it read the order of the entire deck as is, thereby creating an instant stack? 2. If not çan it read (and store) the order of the entire deck if each card were dealt out? 3. Can it read which cards are missing from the deck?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds:No it can only display the cards as they are bee chosen by the spectator, it wouldn’t memorise a full instant stack, It can read the order the cards are been dealt but not which cards are missing from the deck

  • ARON asks: Is it possible to know how many cards are removed ? ex. A spectator removes randomly a bunch of cards, may I know how many cards he has in his hands?

  • Stewart asks: What are the cards made of?

    • 1. Kelsey responds:The cards to the average person will feel like regular card- just a new feel like straight out of the box. A very durable card stock feel like an expensive deck of new cards.

  • Robert asks: This rfid im still a little confused dose the card or chip have to pass over the reader or could i have this reader in my back pocket and the reader will sense the card or chip that is moved away from the rest? in the demo it shows the spectator slightly move a card up from the deck is there something we need to do in order to have the reader recalibrate the positioning of the cards via rather on table or in spectators hands?

    • 1. robert responds:Don’t over think this. Back pocket I wouldn’t suggest but you will be able to better understand if you buy it and you will be amazed. This is real magic. In the action of taking a card you can know what the card is, direct sight in better but in playing not always a necessity. This is a real game changer and a step up in this area of magic giving the complete novice skills you are only limited by you imagination. With skill you can recreate what this enables you to do but you put the capability into the hands of anyone with what appears a very high skill level.
    • 2. Kelsey responds:I just got mine= it works well in a front breast pocket- like a shirt pocket. I would not think it would work in a back pocket.

  • Loïc asks: How large is the reader ? Can it be hidden in a card box ?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds:Via USB
