They Finally Made a Pool Table-Computer

Hi,

I'm new here at AZB.

Question: Would this also work on a 7 ft. table? (Don't have room for a larger one, sadly).

Yes, I think a 7' projector is the cheapest one. You can go on line at Projectionprobilliards.com. Remember this is the very beginning of a computer/ projector scanning a pool table, so we are at the very start of what it will do.
 
Any word from the inventors? I have not seen them back on this thread except once a couple weeks ago. I also never got an answer to the email I sent to their website a couple weeks ago.

I believe they were gone on vacation for a while there.
 
I know they are newest members here but probably don't know how to respond to your questions. BUT, they have a website; Projectionprobilliards.com and that is where you should go to answer all questions and not on a viewer pool site. They have their phone numbers there on the website and I think they invite all callers.
 
amazing what can be done with a $1 sharpie. just put dots at all diamond intersections and you will never have a problem setting up or reproducing a shot ever again.

Want to bet on the measure time to put on a 9 or 10 ball pattern, you using your paper and I'll use my projector? How about flipping it horizontally or vertically? I have dots on all of my intersections but that doesn't help too much putting up a pattern. I'll pick mine.
 
Well fist off you're only talking about about the first few times you even run a drill. Once you've played a drill a few times you'll already pretty much know where the balls need to go anyways. I guarantee you I'd have all the balls placed just as accurately as you can twice before you're done fumbling with the the projector and loading up what pattern you want.

If it's really a problem, you simply are not practising enough. Also don't rely on written down patterns so much. Some are ok as warmup, but you need to keep your practice time dynamic to some extent. The balls will not follow any rules when you go to shoot a game.

That is all true, but I'm selecting patterns that have different problems with different solutions. I take lessons from a pro that has designed them and we work on them in my two week lessons. But, "pretty" is all in the beholder. I've done drill after drill but neglected to put up the patterns because of the work involved..... The projector ends that. Just my deal.

Every time I try putting dots on the table.....
I get kick out of the pool hall.
