Magic with Electronics by Julio Caso de los Cobos Fidalgo

This ebook is for all who would like to combine magic and electronics but have little experience with electronics and have no idea what the possibilities are. The author explains a range of projects that will give you an overview of some of the magic effects achievable with electronics.

The first project has nothing to do with electronics but it will teach you how to write software, an app for your mobile phone. It is a very simple app, and it will not make you a programmer, but it allows you to get your feet wet and get a glimpse at the possibilities of apps.

You will then be introduced to some of the most important electronic and electromechanical components such as resistors, LEDs (Light Emitting Diode), relais, servo motors, etc., and the ESP32 microcontroller. A lot of electronics these days are based on microcontrollers. Keep in mind that this means that every such project requires some amount of programming because a microcontroller needs to be programmed before it can do what you want it to do. On one hand, this is very powerful because a lot can be done with software, and a lot of complexity can be moved to software. On the other hand, it also means there isn't that much electronics involved. If you want to learn what a transistor does and what circuits one can build with it, how an operational amplifier is typically used and in what types of circuits, or what kind of integrated circuits besides a microcontroller are useful for the DIY electronic enthusiast, then this ebook is not the right one. But if you want to understand how you can secretly turn something on or off, or convey information secretly using electronics, shoot confetti, emit smoke, or control motors and other actuators, and achieve many other effects, then this is the right book to get started on the path of integrating electronics into your magic.

The ebook is very hands-on and written to encourage you to build some of the things explained. In fact, there isn't that much text in the book. Most of the instructions are delivered by videos. The author has his own Telegram channel where he and other readers of the book can help each other. You can also get access to a private part on the author's website by contacting him after you have purchased the ebook. In this private section, you can find other resources such as where to purchase necessary components, circuit diagrams, files to upload to the microcontroller, and other design files.

Note: A lot of the detailed instructions and content are in videos which you can access via hyperlinks or QR codes from the PDF. These videos are hosted on the author's website and are therefore not served or maintained by Lybrary.com. If you do have access problems or other issues with these videos you have to contact the author. We will not be able to provide customer support for them. The contact information of the author is in the ebook.
