Mans Shapshak is a techy as well as a sports fan. Though not a professional tennis player he has been playing it in school days. Wembelidon has revoked the player inside him so he decided to start practicing it again. But how could he know if he’s improving or not? He couldn’t find any way around, so did what a gizmo lover is supposed to do!
Shapshak made use of the accelerometer of his Wii-mote, connected a wire to + and – buttons each whose other ends touch the aluminium ball in his had! With the help of some simple math and open-source wii libraries he is now able to know, at what speed does the aluminium ball leaves his hand!
Fortunately, he is generous enough to tell the world how to do it! Find the details on his blog!
