I would recommend all wood.
Samsonov Alpha sgs is the...
That looks spectacular.
I'm buying one for our club for sure when available (international)
Its awesome!
I have some questions - what is the lowest hight of the head at which it can function, the longest distance from the table and can we put it to the corners /longest side distance from the centre/.
I'm sorry for delay with answer, I was far from the Internet.
Actually, lowest height of robot/head is restricted only by height of your tripod. A lot of tripods have minimum height about 20-30 centimeters (8-12 inches). If you want to place the robot "under the table", you can coerce vertical angle of head from mobile app (head has 45 degrees vertical angle to upper direction and 22 degrees to bottom direction), or just incline tripod's head - like on this photo

The longest distance from the table is restricted by motors speed and type of ball's spin (ball with back spin can fly longer than ball with top spin). TeniiRobo uses very powerful high speed motors (airplanes and drones use these motors), so it can make very strong shots. For example, for no-spin balls maximum distance is more than 6 meters from the table. Ball with back spin flies longer. It means, that you can place robot anywhere around your table and simulate any balls that you want (have you ever dreamt to play a game with your favorite table tennis star? )
I'm selling them now in limited mode (limited quantity) via email communication. I've already sold few robots, next batch will be shipped in the middle of August.Any projection on a release date? I like everything I'm seeing here from this robot. Just waiting for it to become available.

Hm...a small idea- you should make the bucket transparent, so that player could see the number of balls remaining
Hm...
Why do you think it's important? Finally, you will see when the bucket will be empty, isn't it? I'm just trying to imagine the situation when it will be important...
not that it's very important, but a nice feature just to have an idea whats going on
one more question -is there a finite number of how many phones the robot can connect to through a Bluetooth? For example, if it is used not for a personal use, but in the club. Everyone makes their own routine, connects to the robot with his phone and does the drill and then another players does his drills from his phone and so on...
This would require all the motors to angle themselves a little bit off axis. This would require an extra motor and make the mounting of the 3 throw motors more difficult.Stupid question Suga , can they make Corkscrew spin ?
There are a lot of new ideas for me here, thanks!This would require all the motors to angle themselves a little bit off axis. This would require an extra motor and make the mounting of the 3 throw motors more difficult.
I think I know a relatively easy way to do this. There would need to be an outer ring gear that would turn the planetary gears that angle the motors left or right, maybe clockwise or counter clockwise is a better term, from the center line.
Since all the gears will move together, there is no problem with keeping them synchronized. If you have solid works and a 3d printer it shouldn't take too long to implement this.
I don't think any robot has this feature yet. I think it is a good suggestion as cork screw serves are sometime difficult to return. There are also cork screw lobs.
I still think there should be a catch net. Besides catching balls, it could have a vibration sensor the will tell the robot to shoot the next ball. None of the robots have this feature either. It makes the timing of the return of the ball more realistic. Of course there needs to be a time out so a ball will still launch if the last ball doesn't hit the net. There must also be a way of disabling the vibration sensor so the time between balls can be lengthen for practice.
Thank you!I see some pretty good software. I like the idea of using a cell phone as an interface. It is obvious to me that software will not be problem for the TenniRobo engineers. As an engineer, my hat is off to you. I can see in the video that the TenniRobo can throw real loops where the topspin is high relative to the speed. This requires at least two heads and at least one must spin backwards.

So I would think if you really want to make a splash on this area , you should focus something around VR ... that will be a real innovation if you can get pro players to simulate the opponent
