When I give instruction, I setup lesson plans ahead of time and then setup the table in advance of the student arriving by marking the table with the donut reinforcements. This not only takes alot of time to setup, but also gets very busy on the table as I use different color donuts so I can get 3-4 lessons on the table at a time.
I saw this product called Projection Pro Billiards that looks like it can really help me to be much more efficient with setting up the table and also having lesson plans ready to go for my students in advance. It basically projects onto the table, the precise locations and lines for ball placement. I can also project gridlines, etc. Mind you, this is not that AI ball tracking system that you may have seen that follows the cueball around, predicts angles for you, etc. This is simply for projecting a "map" on your table with the setup locations, which is exactly what I was looking for.
It is going to be a bit pricey. Looks like about $250 for the mini-computer that comes fully loaded with the software, drills, etc (and you can create your own drills), but this does not include the projector. So I figure I am looking at a $500 investment and before I drop the cash, was looking to see if any of the instructors here have used this system.
Here is the system I am talking about:
