About Playar

The game of cricket is a sport of fine margins, it takes a fraction of a second to hit a ball that's traveling at a speed of over 130 kmph or get out to it. Hence, in this sport decision-making within that split second is crucial for players.


A common problem coaches and players face is to analyze their game in real-time or simulate real game situations during their practice session, so that they can prepare themselves better and extract actionable data to improve their performance. Playar is a cricket app designed to help players improve their performance.


It achieves this by providing real-time batting analysis through advanced performance data, simulations, and actionable insights. The app addresses common problems coaches and players face by evaluating their performance in real-time and simulating their net practices with real-world situations, such as batting during high-pressure death overs or adapting to specific pitch conditions. This is achieved by video recording players' batting performance and converting key metrics, such as launch angle, launch speed and ball contact points, and delivering valuable feedback tailored to improving their practice sessions.

Objective

The primary objective of this project was to create an early prototype that offered a smooth user experience, simplified onboarding, quick setup and calibration for accurate batting analysis. There were constant iterative cycles between all the stakeholders to achieve the best MVP. Testing and feedback were key characteristics of our process. We conducted frequent testing sessions with coaches and players to refine the tech, design and features based on their feedback.
