====== Ball Speed Sensor Placement ====== **Ball Speed Sensor Placement Requirement:** ^Parameter ^ Placement Requirement ^ |Position |Place the ball speed sensor directly in front of or behind the ball's flight path. In front: measures the ball's hit speed; behind: measures the ball's landing speed.| |Angle |Keep the ball speed sensor at a 0-degree angle to the ball's flight direction. Any angular deviation (cosine angle) will cause the measured speed to read low.| |Height |The height should be kept roughly level with the ball's flight height.| |Distance |The distance from the hitting point should be less than 152 meters.| {{sports:ball:ball_speed_sensor_placement:ball_speed_sensor_placement_1.png?600}} **Baseball Court Placement**\\ For best results, place the ball speed sensor about 9 meters behind home plate.\\ Note: Line drives hit toward the home run area are measured relatively accurately; however, balls hit toward first base, third base, or fly balls will show lower speeds due to angle errors.\\ {{sports:ball:ball_speed_sensor_placement:ball_speed_sensor_placement_2.png?600}} **Tennis Court Placement**\\ It is recommended to place the ball speed sensor at both ends of the court and near the center.\\ {{sports:ball:ball_speed_sensor_placement:ball_speed_sensor_placement_3.png?800}}
