At Yakkertech, our mission is to equip players and coaches to push the boundaries of player development. Our commitment is to provide the most comprehensive, accurate, and accessible data from ball tracking to player motion.
Yakkertech is powered by the same concept of vision technology used by Major League Baseball since the 2020 season. Yakkertech’s software and camera systems allow for a more robust analysis of pitching and hitting than ever before.
Yakkertech’s stereo vision technology allows for direct observation of spin axis and seam orientation. This allows for a far more comprehensive analysis of pitch movement and effectiveness.
Traditional ball tracking systems employ radar or mono vision technology. Such methods require spin axis measurements to be inferred based on pitch movement.
Relying on inferred spin axis results in inaccurate data on seam-shifted wake pitches. This means many 2-seam fastballs, sinkers, and some changeups can only be captured accurately by capturing spin axis directly.
