Story

The Tennis Ball Machine, pioneered by Rene Lacoste in the 1920s, has since been a great training aid for tennis players. While tennis ball machines have seen gradual evolution over decades of development, most of them available in today’s market are still oversized, overcomplicated and overpriced. 

At Nisplay we asked ourselves: What is the essential everyday ball machine? How small and portable can a ball machine be? What if we can design a ball machine that could be universally accessible to all tennis players?

Introducing Nisplay L1 – the next generation of tennis ball machine. Innovatively designed to be compact yet powerful, Nisplay L1 defies convention by optimizing the way tennis lovers train and play.

L1’s ultra-compact design catapults portability to a whole new level. Whether you’re cycling to the court, placing it on the front seat of your car, hopping on a subway train or boarding an airplane, it’s travel-ready at its finest. You can go to any court, anywhere, in the world, and start playing.

No complex installations, no time wasted – just place it on the ground, adjust your desired settings, and you’re all set to start swinging!

Nisplay L1’s varied settings allow for precise speed, interval, launch angle and oscillation (option) adjustments, enabling players to focus on specific areas of their game for improvement.

The heart of a ball machine is the motor that drive the launch wheels. Our state-of-the-art motor, developed exclusively in-house, showcases the epitome of power, precision and control. Expertly engineered to eliminate the smallest margin of error, it reduces vibrations to an absolute minimum. This ensures not only smooth and efficient operation but also unrivaled power and accuracy.

The compact size of the L1 battery revolutionizes the dynamics of tennis ball machines. Resembling the size of a hard drive or a power bank, it makes mobility a breeze. More than that, the compact size additionally means easier storage – be it in your tennis bag, a car trunk, or even a locker – which was previously challenging due to the size of older batteries. Thus, the L1 battery brings a new degree of accessibility and convenience to practice sessions, enabling you to focus more on the game and less on logistics.

This miniaturization doesn’t compromise capacity: by adopting The Smart Power Management System – an integrated solution specifically developed (In-House) for L1, that ensures optimal utilization of power, enhancing the efficiency of the battery, increasing its lifespan, and therefore bolstering the overall performance of the battery.

With the Nisplay Mobile App, you can adjust the feed rate, spin, and speed of the balls, command multiple training drills and modes, stimulating real-match conditions for diverse and challenging practice sessions.

Training Progress Tracking

Every time you train using the Nisplay Ball Machine or complete a drill from the Academy, your stats are tracked and displayed for the entire Nisplay community to see. The number of balls you hit, drills completed, hours spent practicing – every milestone is celebrated! It’s about recognizing your effort and dedication to growing as a tennis player.

More importantly it’s about fostering a lively and supportive network of tennis lovers. Share your experiences, struggles, and triumphs with others who share the same enthusiasm for tennis. Learn, grow, celebrate, and inspire each other in your unique journeys towards tennis excellence.

Built-in Academy

Our built-in Academy section in the app is a platform for hosting coaching content directly to our users, who are eager-to-learn tennis enthusiasts from around the globe. With the Academy, we envision a future where quality coaching can reach every corner of the world, and anyone with a passion for tennis can benefit from it.

The Nisplay L1 Ball Machine paired with the Academy creates a powerful training framework for all individual tennis players. The L1 Ball Machine offers the hardware while the Academy acts as a virtual mentor, providing structured guidance. When combined, we’re able to offer you a personalized, effective tennis training experience that adapts to your needs and progress.

Unlike your phone, which can feel heavy and distracting during intensive training, the Pocket Remote is designed to go unnoticed when placed in your pocket. This means you can continue with your power-packed shots and quick sprints across the court without the feeling of a bulky object weighing you down or shifting around as you move. This ultra-compact remote control allows you to manage L1’s various functions without having to interrupt your practice.

The design of the L1 Ball Machine breaks the mold of how tennis training equipment is perceived. With Nisplay L1, functionality merges with fashion as an uncompromising standard. The realm of tennis deserves equipment that is sharp, modern, and attractive. And Nisplay is revolutionizing that space with the amalgamation of technological advancements and aesthetic tastes.

Fashioned to mimic the elegant look of a sleek shoulder bag, the L1 exudes freshness every time you step onto the court. Its plush appeal instantly elevates the aesthetic of your training sessions, making it a delightful sight not just for you, but for every passerby. It’s not only about playing tennis; it’s about living it with style. Train with flair, stand out with Nisplay L1!

Nisplay’s story begins with a simple, yet profound passion for tennis—a sport that epitomizes not just physical prowess but also mental acuity and emotional resilience. In 2021, a diverse team of tennis aficionados, pioneering engineers, and creative designers came together with a singular mission: to reimagine and revolutionize the tennis experience for players worldwide. Our goal was to make the game more accessible, enjoyable, and enriching for everyone, from the casual backyard player to the aspiring professional.

At Nisplay, we are committed to making tennis training accessible and enjoyable for all.

At the heart of Nisplay is a faithful belief that innovation can break down the barriers that limit our engagement with tennis. We saw a gap in how tennis equipment and technology served the community. Traditional tools were often one-dimensional, catering to a narrow spectrum of skills and failing to adapt to the evolving needs of a diverse player base. Nisplay envisioned a more inclusive approach, where technology serves as a bridge, connecting players of all levels to their love for the game, enhancing their skills, and deepening their appreciation for tennis.

Our journey has been marked by relentless innovation and a community-centered approach. The development of the Nisplay L1 – our latest creation – is a testament to this ethos. Designed with input from players across the globe, the L1 embodies our commitment to quality, inclusivity, and the continuous pursuit of excellence.

It’s not just a piece of equipment; it’s a catalyst for growth, a tool that adapts to you, empowering players to reach their full potential.
