We like to know how fast things are going, whether it's running, racing, or even baseball. However, we are all dependent on professionals for this information. This is finished thanks to Scoutee.

Scoutee takes into account all balloons

Created by a baseball professional, this mini radar intends to measure the speed of all balloons, whatever the sport. Tennis, golf, football, badminton, bowling, rugby, hockey and many other sports are on the list. But beyond the balloons, other elements can be analyzed such as skiing, cycling, paintball, archery and why not the motorcycle. The device that fits in the palm of your hand measures the speed of any object. The information is then transferred by Bluetooth to the dedicated application, you just have to consult it from your smartphone.

Different measures can be taken. In the case of baseball, it will be the speed of the pitch and that of the bat. You can add different information to the measure, such as the type of stroke, the location of the match and the result of the strike. The data are accessible over several months to check the progress. Better yet, this device is capable of take a ehealth at the same time as it records the speed. For added safety, however, the device only works if it is placed within a reasonable distance from the ball.

The specifics of Scoutee

To facilitate its use this device can attach to smartphone. To do this, just stick a magnet provided on the phone, then Scoutee will hang on it.

This device uses the bluetooth to connect to your smartphone, on a range of about 40 meters. Its battery in continuous measurement holds 6 hours. With advanced technology, this radar is accurate to 1.6 km / h near. The application is available under Android and iOS, it allows sharing of all the data collected and the creation of several user profiles.

Scoutee has been the subject of a successful campaign on the crowdfunding platform Indiegogo. However, it is still possible to order your pocket radar at the advantageous price of $ 169, 150 euros, instead of 299 dollars, or 266 euros. The package contains the device itself, the magnet, to hold it on the smartphone, a carabiner to hold it anywhere, a custom screw, a USB cable and a bag. The application is free. Deliveries are expected to begin shortly.

Radars of this size, intended for sport and not for police officers – remember the first autonomous radar – this is a novelty that is greatly pleased and that will change the way we attend a sports meeting.
