The present disclosure generally relates to an advanced basketball training system. In particular, the advanced basketball training system comprises a motorized rotatable backboard assembly with the stationary rotary position of the basketball's rim as the center point, a smart ball capturing mechanism comprising of two sections of custom made L-shaped carbon-fiber tubing connected via a mesh webbing material, a ball receiving mechanism delivering the basketball to the ball collection column, a ball propulsion mechanism, an advanced LED polyolefin or thermoplastic elastomer flooring all connected via a highly advanced over the cloud (OTC) Operating System (OS), with smart ball technology and user software/application.
Portable basketball training and practicing assembly systems are readily available in the market. The basketball training and practicing assembly are portable and generally need widths of 15 meters minimum, being the width of a FIBA (Basketballs Governing Body for rules and equipment) approved court, such that the player can practice the game easily, with a manually distance controlled ball passing unit placed underneath existing backboards and rims and via manual telescopic pole with mesh ball capture/rebounding devices. When the player practices shots, they will get one shot length perspective view of the basketball backboard and hoop, however in order to get all the longer range shots, these systems require 15 meters of minimum width, due to the ball passing unit rotating around the court. These readily available systems also rely on manual telescopic ball rebounding devices, thus short range shots are not possible as the players shooting arc would make shooting impossible from those closer range positions and missed shots are near impossible to capture with this type of device. These readily available systems also do not come fully equipped with a backboard, rim and column structure. They must be purchased separately. However, there are very few apparatuses available that provide various perspective views of the basketball hoop during practice while the player is standing in one place, where a player can shoot all shots at every angle and every position on the court with no aesthetic difference to the player, yet in a width of space as little as 2 meters wide.
At present a variety of training methods are used to improve the defensive and attacking skills of basketball players including group training to provide shot practice from various locations on the court. This type of training regime requires a half court space allocation. Other shot practice systems already exist but do not offer the range of practice options proposed by this invention nor do they offer the reduction in functional space allocation.

The term “exemplary” used throughout this description means “serving as an example, instance, or illustration,” and should not necessarily be construed as preferred or advantageous over other embodiments. The detailed description includes specific details for providing a thorough understanding of the presently disclosed advanced basketball training system. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the presently disclosed subject matter may be practiced without these specific details. In some instances, well-known structures and devices are shown in functional or conceptual diagram form to avoid obscuring the concepts of the presently disclosed basketball training systems
In the present specification, an embodiment showing a singular component should not be considered limiting. Rather, the subject matter preferably encompasses other embodiments including a plurality of the same component, and vice-versa, unless explicitly stated otherwise herein. Moreover, the applicant does not intend for any term in the specification to be ascribed an uncommon or special meaning unless explicitly set forth as such. Further, the present subject matter encompasses present and future known equivalents to the known components referred to herein by way of illustration.
Although the present subject matter describes an advanced basketball training system, it is to be further understood that numerous changes may arise in the details of the embodiments of the advanced basketball training system. It is contemplated that all such changes and additional embodiments are within the spirit and true scope of this disclosure.
The backboard 121 is made with a transparent material such as tempered glass, acrylic or polycarbonate lexan, making the backboard aesthetically as similar to a standard FIBA approved Basketball column, Backboard, rim and net. In some embodiments, the backboard 121 and hoop 105 are of regulation size, dimension, and constructions approved by FIBA.
Referring to
Referring to
The plate is coupled to members 157 and 158, which are directly connected to the backboard 121. The motor 151 rotates the backboard.
The working of the whole assembly in reference to the second embodiment is explained below.
During the stationary position, the motors and sliding assemblies 124, 126, and 128 are in standard position. When the backboard 121 rotates on one side, the longitudinal band 1301, 1302 members slide on guide rails 1241, 1242 to the respective position to accommodate the shift in the position of the backboard 121. Rotation of the motor 131 facilitates the sliding of the longitudinal bars 1301, 1302. As the longitudinal band is 1301, and 1302 shifts in one direction, to keep the position of the hoop stationary, the bar member 140 moves forward from its original position. The motor 145 helps in providing the linear movement of the bar member 140. Motor 151 rotates the backboard 121 to give the player various perspective views of the backboard assembly.
All three motors i.e., 131, 145, and 151 are connected to control system 10 to control their operation. Thus, when a player/coach gives the command to rotate the backboard, motors 131 and 145 will change the position of the backboard, and motor 151 will fix the backboard angle.
As can be seen in
The control system 10 controls the various rotating angle of the hoop. The control system 10 can include a display unit to show the type of shoot made by the player. The control system 10 also comprises various sensors to attach to the backboard to determine the accuracy of the shot made by the player. The system uses stereo camera technology (dust, humidity and waterproof) with spatial perception with a variety of lens options including wide angle 3D up to 120-degree field of view and 2.1 mm-4 mm with built in CPL polarizing filter when working outdoors. These cameras also have 9DOF sensors for spatial and positional awareness, with robotic arms and have factory calibrated 6-axis. This new stereo camera combines advanced depth sensing with AI (Artificial Intelligence), to make a cutting-edge operating system with spatial intelligence and virtual replication of the physical world. All of this uses stereo vision and neural networks to reproduce human vision, enabling depth perception from 0.2 to 20 m. For example, the ‘torsion spring that control the ball capture system, these cameras will play an integral part in the safety and deployment of that system alone, and all the analytical data will be captured from the player and the ball. The cameras can detect persons and objects with spatial context. Further, the cameras can also detect multiple 3D human skeletons with a wide angle, at long range and in any indoor or outdoor environment. Using the aforementioned camera technology, the ball data is tracked, and it prevents the torsion spring that deploys in 300 milliseconds the L shaped Carbon Fiber rods.
The control system 10 may also include a coordinate system of the court/backyard where the basketball column assembly is being placed. The coordinates of the court/backyard can be provided by the user or calculated by deploying various sensors near the boundaries of the playing area. If the users enter the coordinates manually, the length of the playing area and the center point of the breadth is considered. If various sensors are used, the sensors can be placed at different intervals along the boundary of the playing area.
Once the coordinate system is finalized, the player/coach can input the location where the ball shooting mechanism can pass the ball to the player. The player/coach can also input the number of shots needed to be performed from one particular court position. In another embodiment, the location of the player and the location of the ball receiving can be different. This is done to increase the response time of the player.
In some embodiments, the control system 10 includes a remote-control transceiver such that the rotation of the backboard may be controlled wirelessly. A Wi-Fi module, an RF module, or a Bluetooth module may be used to wirelessly communicate with PDAs, phones, laptops, or other remote-control system. Responsive to receiving the wireless control signal to change the angle of rotation, the wireless transceiver may decode a signal to identify the angle of rotation specified. The remote-control transceiver can also transmit information related to the current angle of the backboard, backboard height, and player performance statics.
The control system may also be coupled to various sensors placed in proximity to the hoop and the netting system. The sensors may include various infrared sensors placed under the hoop to track whether shots are made or missed.
The ball may be integrated with a custom accelerometer and tracking information or IMU—Inertia Navigational Measurement Unit. This will further enhance the data collection needed to fully build out a robust and safe product and operating system that can be built safely and is future proofed to include the building of the Augmented Reality Technology.
As mentioned earlier, the control system can control the rotatable position of the backboard w.r.t to the player. The player (or coach) can set a particular angle of the backboard in which the player needs improvement, and the player can practice that shot in continuity. The display unit may also show various trajectories, videos, etc. for improvement.
When a shot is made and the ball misses the hoop, a motor 188 then releases the carbon fiber L-shaped arms 180 posts the shot is missed. The system knows when the ball will go in the hoop or not i.e., up to the extent within a 1 mm variance where the ball will or will not make contact with the rim 105 and backboard 121. The system further sends a signal just 0.3 seconds before the ball makes contact at that above-mentioned point i.e., the ball retrieving position. Then a signal to the control system will release the relevant torsion spring 184 (which deploys in milliseconds) later received by the ball launch motor control system for further release.
Further, this torsion spring 235 on the launch arm 234 is used to reset the cam 242 at an initial position and angle after and before the launch along with attached cam followers. An actuator is provided to alter the torsion spring 180 preload so that the launch effort and launch angle can be adjusted as required and easily accessed with the help of launch arm pivot bearings 179. A stepper motor provides the drive torque required to preload the launch arm on a timed basis. A ball feed mechanism is also provided to enable one ball to be fed to the shooting machine at a time, a solenoid will operate a release flap allowing one ball to descend to the propulsion machine after the arm has been set in the launch position, these functions are required to be integrated, so they operate in sequence. The rotation of the ball from the receivable cup was managed up to a certain angle with the help of swing frame pivot bearings 172 and retains the actual position again.
The ball propulsion assembly 150 is connected to the control system 10 to control the operation of the ejection mechanism. The control system monitors the height and distance at which the ball is launched toward the player. The distance of the thrown ball depends upon the position of the player w.r.t the column 110.
Motor 3 is connected to control system 10 which controls the motor 2 and thus, the rotation angle of the backboard 8. The control system 10 can automatically operate the motor 3 or can be controlled manually by the player or a coach available nearby the assembly.
The embodiment of the
Referring to
The movement of the side walls 32 is based on the position of the player w.r.t to the backboard 121′. If the person is standing in the close vicinity of the basketball column assembly 110′, the side walls will remain at a lower position. If the player is standing in the farther position, the side walls will raise. The movements of the side walls are controlled by control system. The basketball assembly further comprises various sensors to determine the position of the player w.r.t to the column assembly 110.
During a practice session, the control system can shoot the ball at various distances and heights and change the backboard's rotation position to improve the player's response time.
The player receives a basketball from the ball propulsion mechanism 23, the player shoots the basketball in the hoop 9. Through the hoop, the ball is transferred into the hollow cavity of the column 110, via guide bracket 210. The balls are collected within the cavity and are passed one by one to the ball shooting mechanism 150. The ball propulsion mechanism 150 transfers the ball back to the player.
In between the ball receiving process and the ball propulsion process, the control system varies the angular positions of the backboard.
In one embodiment, the column assembly 110 comprises a height adjustment mechanism to adjust the height of the column 110 in accordance with the user's need. The column 110 comprises a series of tapered sections that fit inside one another as the column 110 reduces in height according to the player's requirement. A linear actuator assembly is installed within the column assembly 110 for the height extension and retraction of the column assembly 110. In one embodiment, a hydraulic piston-cylinder arrangement can be used for height adjustment of the column assembly 110. In another embodiment, a stepper motor with a threaded rod is used for the height adjustments of the column assembly 110. In some embodiments, the height of the column can be kept as the standard column height approved by FIBA. In other embodiments, the column can be replaced by a standard hollow column of a fixed height.
The advanced basketball training system further includes a flooring system. The flooring system (not shown). The flooring system comprises a customized LED matrix board wherein the matrix boards are programmable LED p12.5 customized matrix board with 100% Translucent polyolefin or thermoplastic elastomer (with grey silk screen) or acrylic FIBA-approved court tile. The court tile can be removed and replaced easily when needed during maintenance or a replacement. The floor uses 250 mm×250 mm p12.50 Matrix Remote Controllable tiles that are attached to FIBA approved and 100% transparent (with grey silk screen) polyolefin or thermoplastic elastomer sports/basketball court tiles also measuring 250 mm×250 mm and are approximately 16 mm in width. These above-mentioned polyolefin or thermoplastic elastomers or acrylic or any other suitable plastic material court tiles overlay the LED floor panels and due to the translucent nature of the court tiles and the Glue On Board (GOB) attachment of the p12.50 LED Matrix boards to the translucent sports/court tiles, the lines on the court, within the shooting area, instantaneously change the basketball court line marking to be congruent with the position of the backboard and rim. The term ‘shooting alleys’ refers to the areas where the product is placed. The floor uses n*m numbers of floor tiles connected. Each floor tile comprises an LED board provided with proximity sensors. The floor screen (screen=n*m matrix of floor tiles) is used to display various designs corresponding to a sports floor, for example, basketball, volleyball, etc. For example, if the ‘shooting alley’ has, a width of 2 m and a length 8 m (from under the baseline), then the number of tiles required would be: 2 m×8 m=16 sq. Meter. Each sq. Meter requires 4×250 mm tiles. Therefore 4 tiles×16=64 LED court floor tiles connected.
Each floor tile comprises an LED board with proximity sensors to sense the position of the players. The interactive system will consist of two features. The first feature shows static floor maps pre-defined. Second, a dynamic floor system. The dynamic floor system will display multiple timers, ball catch locations, a path defined by a coach/player for practice, and various screens displayed related to the sports.
In one embodiment, the flooring system displays a court's position according to the backboard's rotatable position. In other words, when the backboard rotates, the display on the flooring also rotates according to the display of the actual position of the court to the player.
In an alternate embodiment the flooring system can be a remote-controlled LED board underneath the translucent TPE court tiles, in conjunction with very high nit, bright laser or projector technology for indoor and outdoor usages.
The advantage of the advanced portable basketball shooting mechanism mentioned is the space-saving capabilities, since other products rely on the mechanism to sit underneath an existing backboard and rim on a basketball court. The space requirements for a half court of a basketball sport are 15 m×11 m. The system, as shown in
The user only needs a minimum of 2 meters of width, to shoot every single shot imaginable that a player can, on a regulation FIBA 1 Basketball Court (15 m width) on a FIBA 1 Regulation Backboard and hoop, at a speed of up to 1×shot every 2.5 seconds, this means that teams, facilities and homes can fit the invention into either smaller width areas or fit up to 7×times more shooting/rebounding machines in their commercial premises or basketball organization or school.
The player also unlike competitor products will have a totally uninterrupted visual view of the backboard and rim when shooting. The smart ball capture system will be not visible to the player when shooting and the inventions system will only be deployed on the side of the rim where the ball is going to miss with a 99% degree of accuracy. If the shot is also subsequently predicted with the same 99% degree of accuracy to go in the rim, the smart Ball Capture System’ will not be deployed.
The invention flooring described above also will give players the feeling like they are shooting on a FIBA 1 regulation 15 m wide and line marked court, as mentioned above, the court lines in the shooting alleys instantaneously adopt the exact court lines seen on a FIBA 1 court, even though they are in a shooting alley, from 2 m-5 m wide. As soon as the backboard is swiftly moved into the new shooting position, the FIBA 1 court lines instantaneously adopt the line markings as that of a FIBA1/NBA court, (even in a shooting alley between 2-5 meters). This will all be controlled by the invention's Operating System.
This system helps to reduce the excess of space required, giving players access to essentially a full half court in a width as little as 2 meters and as wide as only 5 meters, depending on the area and needs of the player. Thus, the advanced basketball training system consists of a motorized rotatable backboard mounted on a column, equipped with a smart ball capturing mechanism and a ball propulsion mechanism, all controlled by an advanced OTS OS. The proposed integrated system is designed to replace current training methods used for shot practice and provide a means of increasing shot training intensity such that a player can make multiple practice shots from a single location while the system emulates a variety of on court positions thereby reducing the required space allocation from 15 meters width to as little as 2 meters width.
The invention will deploy the basketball at the exact height required by the player and at the exact distance. This is done via the inventions ball propulsion mechanism.
The invention also allows players to work on skills, S&C and short range shots, even lay-ups. The invention allows players to take visually uninterrupted shots at a FIBA1/NBA grade backboard and rim, due to the Smart Ball Capture System. For safety concerns, the Smart Ball Capture System will not be deployed if the player is shooting from within 1.2 meters of the hoop.
This however allows safe use of the invention.
In another embodiment, the advance basketball training system further comprises a method of returning the ball to the player. The method comprises storing a plurality of sets of drill program instructions executable by a motorized ball return apparatus in at least one handheld control device with the operating system, wherein each set of drill program instructions corresponds to one of a plurality of internet-based drill programs for use with the motorized ball return apparatus. The method further includes displaying on a website the plurality of internet-based drill programs, receiving a request from a computer to transmit a first set of drill program instructions, and transmitting the first set of drill program instructions over an internet connection to the computer. The drill programs can be divided into multiple categories such as, based on the experience of the player:—basic, intermediate and advance, based on the tournaments the player is training for future sports, based on a technique followed by a specific player, based on the different types of matches, etc.
The operating system of the handheld device is connected to the advance basketball training system and a cloud interface with a memory storing information about the system. The system utilizes Over the Air (OTA) for updating the operating system. The updates can includes adding new drills to handheld control system, correcting any errors present in the operating system, updating/correcting any faulty electronics or mechanical device within the system, etc. To enable OTA updates, the invention must be equipped with a telematics control unit (TCU), a hardware containing a mobile communication interface (e.g., LTE, 5G) and a memory to store shooting and all the various data captured. Including all the workings of the invention, including alerting us of mechanical failures, etc. and invention data. The TCU must also be able to recover data in case if an update needs to be removed. Whenever an update is available, the company delivers the software package, hardware, and firmware updates OTA to its customers from a cloud-based server. The updates can be done by a remote operator from a remote location. The remote operator can be the advance basketball training system's owner, supplier, or manufacturer.
