There are a couple new pieces of technology that are trying to improve your basketball game. Or at least keep track of how many shots you missed. The first, called ShotTrakcer, uses a wearable sensor and a net sensor to transmit data to an app on your smartphone. It then takes all the collected data and creates shot graphs and visual court charts to show you where on the floor you're shooting from the best. ShotTracker can be purchased online for around $150. Here's a promotional video showing some of the cool stuff this gadget can do:
There is another device that provides similar services called HoopTracker. But this gadget is different because it incorporates an interactive wrist watch that provides live updates regarding shooting stats. Like the ShotTracker, the HoopTracker will also be available for about $150 and provides a website that displays your individual shooting stats, history, and progression. I think both these technologies have great potential in the sport, not only for players but for coaches as well. Check out this video on all the benefits that HoopTracker has to offer:
