Zepp Labs offers a range of innovative sports training systems designed to help athletes analyze, improve, and perfect their techniques in baseball, golf, and tennis. Here’s an overview of their products and key features:
Product Overview
Zepp Labs’ training systems are centered around a small, lightweight, and durable multi-sport sensor that can be attached to various sports equipment such as baseball bats, golf gloves, and tennis rackets. This sensor captures detailed 3D motion data, providing athletes and coaches with valuable insights to enhance performance.
Key Features and Functionality
Sensor Technology
- The Zepp sensor is extremely small (about 1-inch square, less than half an inch thick, and weighing 6.3 grams), ensuring it does not impede the athlete’s performance. It is constructed with a rugged rubber exterior and a shock-resistant core, making it durable enough for use in demanding sports environments.
Data Capture and Analysis
- The sensor captures 1,000 data points per second and stores up to 200,000 tennis swings, 2,000 baseball swings, or 2,000 golf swings. This data is transferred to a smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth for immediate analysis and feedback.
