Volley’s AI-enabled ball machine for racquet sports can simulate gameplay
A new sports tech startup, Volley, aims to revolutionize the way racquet sports players (platform tennis, padel, and pickleball) train with its AI-enabled Volley’s trainer robot leverages AI and vision software to collect data as you play, learn your skill level, and simulate live gameplay.
At the end of this month, during the RacquetX Conference, Volley will demonstrate its upcoming hand gestures feature, which allows you to control the trainer without a mobile device. The company distributed 110 trainers to 45 platform tennis and Padel clubs across the U.S., including Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, New Jersey, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. However, Volley believes it doesn’t have an immediate competitor since it combines video recording and ball dispensing into one device, while also taking an AI-driven approach to simulate live play on the court.
