Blast Baseball measures your swing in four groups: Swing Quality Scores, Swing Metrics, and Impact Metrics (all pre-impact), plus Ball Flight (post-impact). Together they give you the full picture of your swing.
Swing Quality Scores
Blast iQ assesses your swing and impact metrics, based on your level of play, and scores your performance on a bell curve.
– Plane
– Connection
– Rotation
Swing Metrics
The Blast sensor captures swing metrics that measure pre-impact swing mechanics centered on plane, connection, and rotation.
– On-Plane Efficiency
– Rotational Acceleration
– Early Connection
– Connection (at impact)
Impact Metrics
The Blast sensor captures impact metrics that measure performance outcomes based on ball contact.
– Bat Speed
– Attack Angle
– Vertical Bat Angle
– Time to Contact
– Peak Hand Speed
– Power
Ball Flight
Blast iQ’s machine vision measures the post-impact results of your swing, letting you visualize ball flight.
– Exit Velocity
– Launch Angle
– Distance

FAQ
What’s the difference between Impact Metrics and Swing Metrics? Impact Metrics measure what happens at contact (like Bat Speed and Attack Angle); Swing Metrics measure pre-impact mechanics like plane and rotation, and require Premium.
What is Ball Flight? Ball Flight is a post-impact metric group (Exit Velocity, Launch Angle, Distance) captured using Blast iQ machine vision through your phone’s camera.
