Making Data
Insights Accessible
From metrics to methods: data as coaching support
Using motion capture to understand the biomechanics of pitching requires specialized knowledge. Pitcher3D lets you access that expertise instantly - 3D animations, any-angle 200 FPS views, graphs and essential metrics simplify
complex data at a glance; no specialized training needed. Coaches shouldn’t have to be data analysts. Play to your strengths and let Pitcher3D drive your strategy and your players’ performance.
- Unlock the secrets of the pitch
Putting You in Control
Own your performance data: pitching analysis without the middleman
Harness the power of your phone to capture action anytime, anywhere—free from the constraints of traditional motion capture. Pitcher3D lets the game drive the technology, not the other way around, so you can apply the key metrics right after each pitch, as well as post-performance for deep analysis.
Track player progress and unlock potential with total performance autonomy.
- Train smarter, pitch better, win faster
Optimizing Injury Recovery
Accelerate recovery with data-driven insights
Supporting players during injury recovery is all part of the job – but tracking improvement requires frequent assessments: expensive and time-consuming for you, frustrating for players.
Pitcher3D empowers you and your players during setbacks. Establish baseline pitching mechanics and monitor changes to objectively evaluate recovery plan effectiveness and make informed, data-driven decisions.
- Keep recovery on track with essential, real-time data insights
Comparative Analysis
Get the full picture using data comparison
Comparing pitching mechanics across different athletes or different pitches can be challenging due to variations in data formats and capture protocols. Coaches and players don’t want the hassle of inconsistent data formats or technology protocols when comparing athletes or pitches.
Pitcher3D overlays animations and synchronizes timings to cut through this complexity and streamline data evaluation. Easily compare pitching performances and identify subtle differences in movement patterns to gain a deeper understanding of pitching mechanics.

Full Body Smart Sportswear
Fastest Wearable Electronics
4000 degrees/sec gyros, 200 frames/sec recordings (up to 500), 2-minute ingress/egress, simple suit-to-app interaction, 6-second resetting for the next pitch.
Opto-inertial Accuracy
2 photos and 3 manual measurements plus an AI engine compares input with 60,000 other human skeleton structures, generating a user's unique skeleton structure to ensure data accuracy and applicability.
Used on the Mound
Accurate recording happens on the mound, not in a lab. No tripods needed: use the system solo or with someone else holding the phone to direct its capture using the app’s prompts and monitor pitch results. Tag pitches with comments for review.
Biomechanics SW Compatible
Export pitching data to Visual3D biomechanical software used by professionals. Use Pitcher3D's own simplified tools to store, analyze and compare pitches and export for use within 3rd party biomechanical software.
Easiest Operation
Wear it, switch it on, open app - that’s it. The system will show when its sensors are all good to go and each pitch only needs a 6-second reset process. Check the phone stats after each pitch or save till later - all pitches are recorded for review.
Intuitive Visualisation
Replay a recording, in slow motion or frame by frame, from any camera angle, with any zoom, using an AI-resized avatar to match the pitcher: gain deep insight into dynamic processes that can’t be matched by graphs and numbers. (We’ve got them, too.)
Scroll Through Data in 3D
Scroll through 200 f/s from any view, any zoom, in addition to stats and graphs
200+ Frames/Sec For
More Details
At 200 frames/second the data allows at least 7 to 20 x more resolution than normal smartphone recordings. Orient the data to replay the action from any angle, any zoom, to zone in on details you’ve never had access to.
- Unlock the secrets of the pitch
Compare 2 Pitches
Superimpose 2 pitches from the same pitcher to see differences or improvements, or position one next to the other to review them side by side. Compare pitches from 2 different pitchers to see style differences.
Sync A Video To 3D Data
Synchronize a video to the motion data to see essential aspects of the pitch from angles that the video alone cannot show. Video is from a single aspect; Pitcher3D data has unlimited aspects and zooms.
See 3D Avatar With Data Values
As well as powerful 3D insight, Pitcher3D provides graphs and data to add to every pitch - exactly the way you need to see them. Save the template to retrieve the mapping you want for every subsequent pitch.
Data Validation Trials
Pitcher3D slugged it out with the global gold standard optical motion
capture system to validate our Data Suit’s data accuracy and reliability.
Optical System Comparison
Pitcher3D’s Data Suit uses fuss-free sensors (linked by a proprietary cabling system) attached to the user’s bones – and no cameras.
The gold standard mocap requires 24 high-res cameras and multiple reflective marker application. The same action was recorded independently in each system and later compared and analysed.
The Process
Simple solo-use operation is an integral part of the Pitcher3D Data Suit - and it records automatically.
By contrast, to capture the optical data, the trials also used:
2 technicians to record with the optical system
1 technician to record with the data suit
1 to take reference videos
1 pitcher
Take Pitcher3D Data
Pitcher3D’s automatically recorded and saved shots used the MVNX format for storage and later analysis. These trials then used pioneering biomechanical analysis software Visual3D – compatible with MVNX – to complete the system comparisons.
Take The Optical Data
The optical system used the C3D format to record the shots and set them aside for later use. Unlike Pitcher3D’s immediate ready-to-use data, some of the optical data needed to be “solved” before it could be used - taking a few days to complete.
Compared Data in April '24
You be the judge: graphs don't lie.
Both data sets were analysed by allowing the model to run freely – so the data can speak for itself. Plus, all data is raw - no filters – to show its integrity before applying any filters. All trial data is available here for public inspection, clearly showing Pitcher3D’s data accuracy and reliability – the new gold standard for coaching support and performance progress.
Data Rerun in September '24
The results are in. The April data was no fluke.
Subsequent trials show that Pitcher3D continues to improve – giving you exceptional data precision, dependability and integrity.
Our evolution elevates your coaching.

Unique Skeleton Models
2 photos + 3 manual measurements provide AI-based optical accuracy
From Images to Skeleton to 3D Model to Visible Data
Pitcher3D's AI uses 60,000 samples to calculate a user’s skeleton structure incorporating precise limb size and individual posture. Infusing optical accuracy into the Data Suit’s recordings guarantees reliable and evaluation-ready data.
2 photos and 2 measurements
AI engine creates a unique 3D model using 2 pitcher photos and 2 measurements
(nose height and top of head height)
Pitch Data at Your Fingertips
Post-training, sit down and look at the pitch data on your own time. Simple deep-dive analysis tools,
3D animations, any-angle 200 FPS views, graphs and essential metrics simplify complex data, transforming data into coaching decisions.
Joint Speeds in
meters/seconds
Joint center changes, measured in distance/time, create speed changes in other joints: the first essential measurement.
Speed Logger captures multiple transitions including from the center of the pelvis, stride length, knee rise, elbow to elbow and middle finger knuckle.
Here you can see wrist speed and stride length in graph format.
Mix & Match various measurements from either type onto the same screen and see them next to the 3D avatar replays
Bone Angles in
degrees/seconds
The second essential measurement is the angle between 2 bones and the angular velocity generated.
Speed Logger captures vital pitching data: elbow and shoulder angular velocities and pelvis and shoulder pivots. Bones can viewed in X, Y, Z values or vector form – a single value that combines the X, Y, Z format.
Here you can see wrist speed and stride length in graph format.
