Design and build ping pong ball launcher

Project Title

Design and build ping pong ball launcher

Project Area of Specialization Electrical/Electronic EngineeringProject Summary

Practice is necessary to improve a player’s skill. Sometimes there is no partner to practice so we need to design a ping pong ball launching system which can automatically throw the ball.We are going to design a ping pong launcher for table tennis that will covers a distance of approximately 1.5 meters on its first bounce with accuracy..It will have different speed and direction. By this way a player can practice alone to improve his efficiency in game

Project Objectives

The prime objective of the project is to assist the alone player to practice.Finding a proper training partner is one of the most effective techniques to improve our skills.If we have to work alone, the training robot is also an alternative. It is not efficient when we move frequently and when we want to practice swinging in different positions. In our Ping Pong Ball launch system, the player can hold a remote controller and change the launch direction and launch speed by pressing the button. Besides, with the different speed and direction, we can simulate how to stroke the ball in different positions
