  1. Advancing Table Tennis Robots: PongFox Tests Service & Return Feature - Thoughts?

    The point is we chose the clips after filtering out the times where the players were hitting the ball to the net or missing them. in some cases there were others in the video frame and a lot of things to consider. In some cases when the balls were placed on the other side they were slow to...

    Thanks for the link. We did think of the accelerometer but in terms of getting something out in a short time without making significant changes to hardware this was a simple for us to deliver, hopefully that will be something to look into over a longer time once we can gather enough data about...

    Ok how about this case, the pad can be used when doing drills to track your consistency, it can show you how often you hit a target at a particular speed and frequence, or while doing drills at known places and randomized drills. Now as a player wouldn't it be helpful to realise where your...

    exactly, the point is that these tools are to be used as an enhancement not replacement, once you understand what this will help with then it becomes easier to use it when required or make a decision to say it does or does not work for me
  5. Advancing Table Tennis Robots: PongFox Tests Service & Return Feature - Thoughts?

    Not really, I have something in mind and wanted to use it as an example to show it as an example but I plan to do another video on how this relates to the pad.
  6. Advancing Table Tennis Robots: PongFox Tests Service & Return Feature - Thoughts?

    Great suggestion but realistically this takes time and effort and might be a longer goal but the shorter version can be to say record personal matches and analyse say one kind of serve, say pre 2200 rating level. At this level people are not good at doing a banana flick and dropping the ball...

    Just to be clear to others who don't misunderstand, when I meant smart I do not mean the coaches who use this are smart , what I meant is the coaches who are able to think deeply and understand in what cases at what levels this can be useful and suggest it in those cases. As far as delay, the...

    Can you share a video of your students doing service practice alone (not with a partner)?
  9. Advancing Table Tennis Robots: PongFox Tests Service & Return Feature - Thoughts?

    We have earlier created videos on calculating the speed of rubbers, we use a similar technique to get the numbers and fine tune it. also the robot can be moved around the table as well as each strokes can be programmed to program the type of return required and options of choosing different...

    Another advantage with the pad is that we can now add a feature to track you consistency which can be used as an assessment for your progress over time
  11. Advancing Table Tennis Robots: PongFox Tests Service & Return Feature - Thoughts?

    We're excited to announce a game-changing feature that's currently in testing for the PongFox table tennis robot. Once rolled out, this innovation will allow players to interact with the ball after service, a capability not yet found in any other commercially available table tennis robots. The...
  12. Improving Third Ball Play After Service in Table Tennis

    I've been on the internet longer and have engaged with bigger trolls , this is not rude for me :-) I've posted a couple of links , also since you mentioned huberman let me use that. You know he talks about psychological sigh and the research behind it. a lot of table tennis players are not able...

    I've have actually made more difference to a lot of table tennis players (maybe in thousands) due to my robot and will continue to scale. you can have all the likes on such forums
  14. Coaching for coaches!!!!!

    It need not be that way, I play tennis and in tennis when a beginner starts they start with a bigger ball with less bounce (red) then they go to orange ball and then green dot before moving to the regular ball. The same concept can be tried out with starting with hard bat and removing the spin...
  15. Improving Third Ball Play After Service in Table Tennis

    I played at national level when I was in juniors, I am currently in the top in 40+ the quality of the shot is more than what you think you see in a 15 second video so it's a pity that with such mindset what your students are missing
  16. Coaching for coaches!!!!!

    I like doing experiments, I wanted to try the techniques of mixing up practice (most coaches do one stroke then after the student learns go to stroke 2), but interleaving concept means that if you actually start doing them both they learn faster as the brain makes connections (initially the...

    you seem to have genuine interest to learn, take a look at one such paper https://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/s40798-021-00327-5 . I have it on my computer and will share others with you . One more that I had used in the video https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30317921/

    lol , you are the one moving goalposts. you have not shown anything that you claim. in the first post you claim you have followed the science and came up with some unbacked opinion, but don't show anything what you have done. I have shown enough things I have done in this thread where I have put...
  19. Improving Third Ball Play After Service in Table Tennis

    If you had taken time going through the video , there are a reference to papers on table tennis. If you are capable of doing a google search you will find such papers even better if you have access to sites that publish scientific journals (researchgate is one there are others), you can actually...
