Pitchers
PitchAI is software that uses a slow-motion video to analyze pitching mechanics and generate a biomechanics report. This puts numbers behind how a pitcher is actually moving on the mound so that we do not have to solely rely on evaluating mechanics through video as this is a subjective process. With the objective data we receive from PitchAI, we can more accurately prescribe drills and programming that will attack the inefficiencies we see in the report. More importantly, we can continue to monitor the changes to see what progress, or lack of, has been made.
Rapsodo is a radar camera that helps us evaluate the arsenal of a pitcher. This camera tells us the velocity, spin rate, spin direction, and other pitch metrics that determine the movement profile of the pitch and see changes that need to be made in order to make it more successful. We will also document the grip that goes along with each pitch. Combined we can make adjustments to each pitch to create a more deadly arsenal.
This sensor sits on the medial side of the elbow and measures a few different arm metrics. One of the main metrics we look at is arm stress which is determined by the torque on the elbow. Normalizing this to velocity helps determine and monitor the efficiency of a throw. Every pitcher will wear a Pulse sensor when they throw at the facility. This will help track workload which will help drive future training sessions to make sure we are progressing workload at the appropriate rate to keep the arm healthy.
Software from Driveline that allows us to build out an athletes program that can be accessed outside of the Lab. This software also integrates with all of our technology so that we are able to easily see and track progress! Think of this as the hub for everything related to our athlete’s training program.

Hitters
Blast is a bat sensor that attaches to the knob of the bat. After each swing in which the hitter makes contact, we are able to receive certain metrics about how the hitter moves the bat. Some of the key metrics we look at are bat speed, hand speed, attack angle, among others! We pair this data with Rapsodo Hitting to help us look at contact quality.
Rapsodo hitting is the hitter's radar camera that gives batted ball feedback. The data it tracks are exit velocity, launch angle, spin, and distance. We will also be using this during training sessions, too, for immediate feedback.
