Swing Quality Scores
Blast iQ assesses your swing and impact metrics based on your level of play to automatically score your performance, distributing it on a bell curve.
- Plane
- Connection
- Rotation
Swing Metrics
The Blast Sensor captures swing metrics that measure pre-impact swing mechanics centered around plane, connection, and rotation.
- On Plane Efficiency
- Rotational Acceleration
- Early Connection
- Connection (at impact)
Impact Metrics
The Blast Sensor captures impact metrics measuring 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 so you can visualize ball flight.
- Exit Velocity
- Launch Angle
- Distance
FAQ
What’s the difference between Pre-Impact and Post-Impact metrics?
Pre-Impact metrics (Swing Quality Scores, Swing Metrics, Impact Metrics) measure your mechanics up through contact; Post-Impact (Ball Flight) measures the result of the swing after the ball leaves the bat.
What is Blast iQ?
Blast iQ is the scoring system that assesses your swing and impact metrics against your level of play, and powers the machine vision behind Ball Flight metrics.
