Nike Unveils Basketball Court With Embedded LEDs
Nike has created a basketball court embedded with LEDs which has the ability to track players’ movements.
The project is part of the company’s Nike RISE campaign over in China and has been designed with training programs and drills for players to follow. It will also be able to respond to movements and mistakes made by players, so that they will know what they have done wrong and be notified via visual cues.
To demonstrate the court in action, Nike brought in basketball superstar, Kobe Bryant, where he coached 30 young Chinese players.
“My first experience on the LED floor, it’s pretty uhhh … I didn’t even know that was possible. It’s amazing what can be done nowadays. I think the potential and possibilities for the floor are endless,” Bryant said.
Check it out in action in the video below.
