What the Zepp Sensor Measures
Bat Speed at Impact
Bat Speed at Impact is the measure, in miles per hour (MPH) or kilometers
per hour (KPH), of the velocity of the barrel of your bat when the bat
impacts the ball.
Note - This is NOT the maximum bat speed of your swing.
Max Bat Speed
Max Bat Speed (Offered in the Chart located in the Bat Speed at Impact
focus screen) is the max velocity the barrel of your bat travels during your
swing. The faster your bat is traveling when you make solid contact with the
ball, the farther the ball will travel.
3D Path
The bat path is the path takes as it extends along the arc of the swing away
from the ball back through the hitting zone and up into your follow through.
Bat path can be viewed with a 360 degree view on the 3D view by swiping
your finger up, down, left, and right on the avatar.
Hand Speed Max
Hand Speed Max is the measure, in miles per hour (MPH), of the maximum
velocity the bottom hand on the bat travels during the swing.
Time to Impact
Time to Impact is the amount of time (in seconds) from the start of your
downswing until impact of the bat with the ball. The closer to ZERO your
swing is, the quicker your bat is to the ball. The faster the time to impact,
the longer the hitter can wait to start the swing. Time to Impact also
measures how quick a user is, but while hand speed focuses on one specific
part of their swing, Time to Impact measures their coordination of both
their hands and the bat barrel to maximize efficiency to the ball.
Bat Vertical Angle at Impact
This is the Vertical angle (Up or Down) measured in degrees, of your bat
barrel in relation to the knob of the bat, when it makes impact with the ball.
Attack Angle
Attack Angle is the direction the bat barrel is moving (Up or Down) at
impact. A positive number would mean your
ba
rrel is going UP at impact,
zero is LEVEL and a negative number is the barrel going DOWN at impact.
