Tennis practice device using simulation

摘要

The device allows a beginner to learn the game, or an advanced player to develop new skills by simulating ball movement from the time that the opponent strikes the ball until the first bounce of the bail in the player's court. At this time a real ball is delivered at a speed and trajectory preset by the player. This simulation allows the practicing player to interact with the device in preparing stance and having a fluid back swing and swing of the tennis racket. The real ball having been struck by the player hits a large catch net located immediately in front of the device. The devise can be used in an enclosure the size of a one car garage or small basement, allowing use during rain or winter months.
