The World's First Tennis Robot for Rally Play

Incubated by SwitchBot, the world’s leading smart home brand, Acemate Tennis Robot was born from a collaboration between top AI visual engineers—many from Microsoft and Google—and a hardware powerhouse with proven product success.

Two years ago, our team encountered a common frustration shared by tennis enthusiasts: the lack of a reliable, consistent training partner. This sparked the vision for Acemate—a tennis robot capable of simulating real human rallies.

By combining advanced visual algorithms with SwitchBot’s hardware expertise, we created a tennis robot with “eyes,” “hands,” and “legs”—binocular cameras for tracking, a built-in net hopper for receiving, and omnidirectional wheels for movement. Acemate Tennis Robot doesn’t just shoot balls—it sees, reacts, and rallies like a real player.

Now, solo tennis training becomes truly immersive—powered by real-time AI and engineered for pros and beginners alike.
