Leave a comment

With the official release happening in mid June and to keep the hype going, QLIPP™ has invited various tennis enthusiasts for a couple of trial sessions to try out the sports sensor.

Stuart Daw, a tennis coach from ProDoozy felt that the weight and the size of the QLIPP™ sensor was perfect and commented that “the stroke by stroke real time capability allows me to drill down to every single stroke.”

A couple of novice tennis players were among the participants who took part in the trial sessions and after trying out the sensor for a few sessions, they feedbacked, “I never knew how I was playing. Now I can go back home after the game and slowly analyze and find out how my game was. I can even take this data to a coach and have him tell me what I should be doing to improve it.”

Another beginner player also remarked that QLIPP™ had helped her realise her shortcomings after the sensor had analysed her strokes after a session. “I found out that most of my ground strokes are very flat. In fact when I asked the coach she told me that I should try to incorporate some topspins into my game, so that I can hit hard and keep the ball in the court.”

QLIPP™ begins tennis sensor trials, receives seed funding

Singapore-based QLIPP™ has developed a performance based tracking device for tennis players keen to ace the game. The tiny 3 x 2 cm tracker mounts onto any racquet within seconds, and reports ball speed, sweet spot, backhand, slice, and even over hand efforts. Purely wireless, QLIPP™ does not require any configuration except user registration so that a performance profile can be generated.

Players have the option to let QLIPP™ aurally read stats after every stroke while engaged in a match. (imagine doing that with a Bluetooth earpiece). QLIPP™ expects this to be a boon to trainers managing teams for competitive matches as big data meets the Internet of Things (IoT).

Serious aficionados seeking superior game play will appreciate the ease of switching racquets, so they can react to the competition swiftly. QLIPP™ recently closed a six figure seed round, including an investment from Media Development Authority of Singapore (MDA), even as product development pushed past the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) phase.

QLIPP™ will be participating in the ISPO taking place in Munich in February 2015. Pre-orders are available at www.qlipp.com.
