Yes. It will be a 10-year project from conception to launch. I had to wear a lot of hats. I asked ChatGPT to make a list of all of the roles that I played:
- Inventor / Product Concept Creator
- Analog & Mixed-Signal Electronics Engineer
- RF / Antenna Engineer
- Embedded Firmware Engineer
- Wireless Power / Inductive Charging Engineer
- Battery & Power Systems Engineer
- Mechanical Engineer (mass, balance, shock survivability)
- Materials & Process Engineer (resins, curing, encapsulation)
- Test & Validation Engineer
- Regulatory / EMC / FCC Pre-Compliance Engineer
- Manufacturing / DFM / DFT Engineer
- Industrial / Physical Product Designer
- Mobile App Developer (Android & iOS)
- PC / Auxiliary Software Developer
- Tooling & Fixture Designer (robots, testers, chargers)
- IP Engineer (Patents & Trademarks)
- Program / Project Manager
- Supply Chain & Vendor Manager
- Startup Founder / Business Owner
- Website Designer
All while maintaining a 9-5 job making unmanned underwater vehicles and liquid chromatography machines.
As you can imagine, I deserve a vacation. My wife deserves a lot of thanks also.

After watching a preview of it with Nick and Rachel I was hooked and am interested. I think this would be a great addition to youtube matches. Yes I understand there is so much more to it, but I would love to see it on youtube matches. Also if I read right, there is a timer function with audio? If so, every match without a ref could possibly be on the clock.

One engineer to another: this is ridiculously cool. The concept, the implementation, everything. Bravo sir.
I'll be moving and getting a table this summer and will be right there on the first production pre-order list.

Being your own boss is a lot of work, you must wear a lot of different hats including custodial engineer.
I knew years ago that this concept was the future of pool instruction. It is absolutely the leading edge of modernizing how to teach, train and practice. I was excited then an$ even more no2 as it comes to actual realization……Cudos for creativity & persistence. Now I am hoping I can afford to get a couple…….one for personal use and the other for giving lessons to others. The pool stroke is more akin to a violin bow’s movement rather than fiddling. DigiBall is going to be enormously helpful.
The project is in the business plan and allocation stage (which means it is out of my hands). All design work is complete except for maybe the box artwork, and the foam design for fitting the AC adapters. The sensor manufacturers are trained and ready. I am not going to post release dates at all because I just don't know when that will be. I will only post when they are available for sale. Sorry to keep you anxious but we just have to wait.
That's a lot of hats Nathan.
Hat's off to you, pardon the pun.
This sport is all the better for having you in it.
