1. Edge Computer Vision for Line Calling
Close line calls on the baseline and kitchen lines cause more disputes in amateur pickleball than almost anything else. Because balls compress on impact, human perception at speed is often unreliable.
Our engineering lab is testing high-framerate, wide-angle lens modules positioned on sideline posts. Using localized edge inference, the system captures ball bounce coordinates in real time without sending video streams to cloud servers.
2. Instant Replay on Court Displays
When a contentious call happens, players can request a 5-second replay review directly on the court's live scoreboard display or referee device.
The system overlays ball trajectory vectors, showing contact patches relative to the boundary lines with millimeter accuracy.
3. Lightweight Installation for Outdoor Courts
Unlike professional stadium setups requiring expensive multi-camera rigs, our hardware prototype is designed for community venues:
- Weather-resistant IP67 enclosures built for tropical humidity and heat.
- Low-power consumption that runs on standard venue AC or compact solar battery packs.
- Direct Wi-Fi and Bluetooth sync with the existing PickleLobby venue dashboard.
4. Venue Pilot Testing Program
We are actively rolling out private beta trials with club organizers across the Philippines. Partner clubs test experimental line-calling hardware during weekly open plays to benchmark reliability under real courtside conditions.
Organizers interested in early access can submit their club details below to join the waitlist.
