This smart table tennis trainer might change the future of ping pong

German designer Thomas Mayer created this futuristic training interface for ping pong players, which he says might “change the game play totally.” It has a slew of different functions, which you can see in the video above, to help players improve their game. Using it feels like you’re playing a mix of video games and a real ping pong game. But right now it’s just a prototype. Thomas is looking for investors and partners to figure out how to develop this into a scalable product.
