Sports enthusiasts at CES 2016 will be pleased to know that Zepp Labs is coming out with a Smart Bat, as well as a plan to change the future of sports.
The Smart Bat is designed so that a small sensor can be added to the handle of a bat, enabling motion tracking in a traditional bat design. In addition to being able to check out the Zepp Smart Bat at CES 2016, there will also be a number of other smart sporting goods on display, including tennis rackets, cricket bats and more.
With many wearable devices and apps that analyze sports performance, Zepp Labs has spent years fusing sports and technology. By working with manufacturers, organizers and athletes of all kinds, Zepp Labs hopes to bring about what it calls a "new wave of 'open-source' industry-standard sensor solutions."
