Instant replay on the court terminal

A disputed ball is settled by the court in seconds: players tap Replay on the terminal or say “Court, replay!” — and watch the last rally full screen, from any court camera, in slow motion, drawing with a finger where the ball landed.

Court 4, a real match: a rally from camera 1, then the same moment from camera 4 at half speed — this is what a replay looks like; faces blurred

What it is and why

Padel disputes are usually about one thing: was there a bounce before the glass, did the ball touch the net, was it in. Without a referee pairs decide by eye and spoil their game. Smart court cameras record all the time, so the last rally can always be rewatched right by the court.

The replay is shown on the court terminal screen: pick a camera, slow it down, stop on the right frame, draw a line with a finger. On rally moments the ball flight line computed by the ball cameras is shown too.

What it does

Instant replay on the court terminal

  • A Replay button on the court terminal — full-screen video
  • Camera choice: overview cameras and ball cameras
  • Draw on the frame with a finger to show where the ball landed
  • The ball's flight line on rally moments
What the court needs

An AI Padel smart court: court cameras, court server and a terminal with a screen.

How it works

How it works

  1. Cameras record

    Court cameras record the game all the time on the court server in the club.

  2. Asking for a replay

    Players tap Replay on the terminal or say “Court, replay!” — the voice command does the same as the button.

  3. The last rally

    The terminal shows the last rally full screen.

  4. Camera choice

    Switch cameras — overview and ball cameras — and watch in slow motion.

  5. Show with a finger

    Draw on the frame with a finger to show where the ball landed.

  6. Decision

    Players settle the ball and play on; if the score needs correcting, a coach or admin does it with a PIN in Disputed ball.

Terminal: the rally full screen, camera choice, slow motion, drawing on the frame.

Limits, honestly

Limits, honestly

  • The replay shows video, but the decision stays with the players or coach — the system does not change the score from a replay by itself.
  • If a player hides the ball on every camera, a replay cannot help — an honest limit of video.
  • A terminal with a screen by the court is required.
