So how does this Dribbleup Smart Basketball actually work? Let’s get into the details below.
What is a Smart Basketball?
The Smart Basketball is a ball that works with the Dribbleup app to provide kids with real-time virtual feedback on their dribbling performance.
At Dribbleup, our Smart Basketball uses computer vision technology to track the ball as it moves. This allows young athletes to record their progress and receive virtual feedback on ball handling, form, and speed.
Once your kids scan the Smart Basketball into the Dribbleup app, players will see green targets on their device screen. Then, a Dribbleup coach explains the drill. From here, your kids will know they are performing the movements correctly when they hit the virtual targets.
The Dribbleup app tracks how many reps are performed, so players can set goals and monitor their progress. The classes also have a leaderboard option to inspire the best effort from your kid.
How Does The Smart Basketball Work?
First things first, the Dribbleup Smart Basketball works with the mobile app using your phone or tablet's camera. Crazy, right? But trust us, it works like a charm.
The app tracks the ball's movement in real-time, creating an augmented-reality experience on your device's screen. It's like a video game coming to life!
But this isn’t your traditional video game. It's a library of dynamic, exciting basketball drills for players of all ages to improve your game. The Dribbleup app includes coaches teaching new live classes every day. These drills are then available on-demand while sorted by skill level. From beginner to advanced, players can progress through the ranks at their own pace.
The Dribbleup Smart Basketball is fun like a video game, but it also builds a foundation of basketball skills your kid can take from the driveway (or garage, living room) to the basketball court.
Smart Basketball Features
One of the coolest features of the Dribbleup app is the green square trackers. The player needs to hit these targets on the screen to complete reps and unlock achievements. From here, they can level up to gain access to new avatars and trackers in the app.
This provides a fun, built-in challenge to keep your kid motivated. Plus, the instant feedback lets kids compare themselves to their previous high score, or other players on the leaderboard. All of this happens in real-time!
And if that's not enough, we also have live classes with professional coaches every day. These classes teach players new skills while setting goals for their progress. Plus, they're different every day, so your kid will never get bored! And the best part? Dribbleup has a library of hundreds of on-demand classes. So your budding basketball star can keep learning and improving at their own pace, whenever they want.
