What Are Hyperlab Products?
Hyperlab is a sports tech platform that helps sportspeople or fitness freaks to measure their progress from all perspectives. The company has its hero product, Helios. It is a small portable device that connects to your smartphone via Bluetooth. Helios shows a player’s frontal and back speed. It also helps them work actively on their reflexes. The product has different modes with different practices for all sports. Hyperlab shark tank pitch also shares this product’s features in detail. Let us take an example of a Killer mode.
Under the killer mode, an athlete can start with a particular speed and stamina he/she has. It will point out random laser spots where the athlete has to move. The patterns will be random to check the speed of reflexes. It will measure your speed and stamina and increase the difficulty level every time to see at what level your stamina and moving speed start decreasing. It is used in badminton as a drilling practice. The company worked on more than 600+ prototypes for 2+ years with 100+ user testing. All the product’s tech is patented in the US and India.
