LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Nov 6, 2014) - Zepp, the leader in sports performance technology, announces the UK availability of the world's first app-powered multi-sport training platform for golf and tennis.
The Zepp training system captures performance data by combining a 3D sensor, sport specific equipment mounts and mobile apps. Zepp consulted with professional players and coaches to develop the sensor and apps, including those from the PGA TOUR.
The UK launch coincides with the debut of a new free Zepp Golf app that offers exclusive content and access to video analysis features allowing players to analyse and compare swings to the world's best professional golf athletes. The app provides a detailed analysis of the pros' swings, complete with specific training tips and drills. When paired with the Zepp multi-sport sensor the app delivers a powerful 3D training platform.
Jason Fass, chief executive officer of Zepp, said: "We have seen huge success in our native US with Zepp and are very excited to properly introduce it into the UK. We've built a platform that delivers impactful data and instant feedback to athletes and coaches allowing them to analyse and improve their game like never before. The sensor and dedicated sport apps aim to change the way people practice, play, and experience the sports they love."
Zepp Multi-Sport Sensor
The Zepp 3D motion sensor is extremely small, at 1-inch square, less than half an inch thick and weighing just 6.3 grams, so it never impedes performance. Constructed of a rugged rubber exterior and shock-resistant core, the sensor is also extremely durable to withstand all types of abuse on the golf course or tennis court.
Each sensor contains a powerful ARM processor, multiple motion sensors, storage for up to 200,000 swings (200,000 tennis swings / 2,000 golf swings) and up to eight hours of battery life. Using innovative sport-specific mounts, the Zepp sensor easily attaches to any tennis racket or golf glove. It captures 1,000 data points per second and transfers all of this data to a user's smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth.
