  1. Using Computer Vision in Table Tennis

    I'm more into embedded programming so I didn't have a chance to look into AI. However what I would do is to train the AI with thousands of professional matches from top 100 players so that it can understand right movements. Once the AI knows what the right movements are, it can assess how far...
  2. Using Computer Vision in Table Tennis

    A user in the forum suggested the use of AI for setting up drills with a robot. I suggested him to close the loop by letting the AI use a camera to watch the movement and analyze what kind of drills are needed to work on most common mistakes. It seems that your work pretty much covers last mile...
  3. Soft rubbers suggestions - cheaper alternatives to Vega Europe

    Better and cheaper than Vega Europe is pretty much impossible. However I found Gewo Hyper Pro EL 40 soft and with a nice throw angle for my BH.
  4. Screaming during play? Illegal?

    That's wrong, though. Because it's an official competition with cameras and kids watching the show. What if the Iranian player stopped to do any noise and started complaining at every single noise made with foot, mouth or whatever by the Danish player, just because "this is the rule, this is the...
  5. Screaming during play? Illegal?

    "This is the rule, but this is the rule..." I believe I was 6 when I stopped crying like that
  6. Integrating ChatGPT with a Table tennis robot

    Close the loop with a camera and let the AI identify your weaknesses and fix them by setting up appropriate drills!
  7. Thicker rubbers are softer when using the same sponge material

    Personally I appreciate @brokenball 's posts about the topic. As an engineer I like this aspect of the game although having little spare time I prefer to practice more with experimental results rather than mathematical modelling :) I appreciate though the effort of explaining the basic model...
  8. Life, Existence, and the Meaning of Long Pips - The Opus Maximus of James Z

    Pepperoni flick is the new banana flick
  9. Some blade reviews

    Sanwei 75 isn't a sanwei product. At least this is what a sanwei representative said on this forum more than once.
  10. What company would you like to be sponsored by?

    I would say Butterfly so that I'm covered for the most expensive products. I wouldn't say DHS because I guess they won't give top quality equipment to anyone outside China and anyway I will never be able to use decently chinese type of equipment.
  11. Equipment you want Dan and Tom to review?

    Tibhar MK 7, Sanwei Trio Parla, Sanwei Fextra One
  12. Best table for the money (w/minimal or pre-assembled)?

    Btw just realized tables on US butterfly website have 2.5x prices compared to Italian one. 😱
  13. Best table for the money (w/minimal or pre-assembled)?

    I was looking for 25mm minimum thickness indoor, ITTF approved in Italy. I found shipment is determinant component for the choice because it makes quite a large chunk of the expense. I found a Pongori table in Decathlon (model was something like 930) and it costed about 670 euros shipped with...
  14. Butterfly Gionis carbon DEF

    Look could you tell me in the 38mm era how many DEF players and how many OFF players won the world title? Because if DEF are minority that is sort of a proof that DEF style is loser. But please do the counting in another thread. Our friend wanted some tech specs of a blade in this one here.
  15. Butterfly Gionis carbon DEF

    You'll never know, because Butterfly never makes that information public. Thickness should be about 5.6/5.9mm.
  16. Butterfly Gionis carbon DEF

    Probably I have enough clues to understand that. However what I'm telling you is that even with ITTF approved Ikea frying pans a defensive approach would be loser.
  17. Butterfly Gionis carbon DEF

    No of course I have far less experience and yes I exactly meant that kind of pizza pole. I used to like the sport with old rules like you did, but I mean this crusade you make in every post is pointless and not beneficial in any way. I know the sport could be far more spectacular than what we...
  18. Life, Existence, and the Meaning of Long Pips - The Opus Maximus of James Z

    Awesome blade, I was just looking for something like that since I got the pole for the pizza stove broken!
  19. Butterfly Gionis carbon DEF

    170x170 ahhahaha that's beach tennis, dude. This is a table tennis forum!
