SPEED. PRECISION. VICTORY
Khel.ai holds the shuttle from low serve to net kill, then breaks a 42-shot rally into stroke, footwork and coverage numbers before the umpire calls the next game.

Built on the sport, not bolted on to it
Eight synchronised feeds hold the shuttle through contact, its steep loss of speed and the net cord, so the flight path stays continuous as the cork turns in the air.
Rulings cover the singles sideline, the doubles long service line and the 1.15 m service height law, and reach the umpire tablet as an animation within seconds.
Takneek maps every split step, chasse and lunge across the six corners, reporting distance covered, recovery to base and how late a player reaches the rear court.
Every rally is split into serve, third shot, mid-rally build and finishing stroke, so coaches see which patterns win the point and which hand the attack back.
How a badminton fixture becomes data you can act on
Eight cameras ring the court at 480 fps, tied to the umpire's scoring feed so every serve, let and change of ends carries a timestamp.
Shuttle and both players are followed frame by frame, with the racquet head picked up at contact to fix the exact moment of each stroke.
Models label the stroke as low serve, flick, lift, clear, drop, drive, net kill or jump smash, and mark which side holds the attack.
Clips, heat maps and rally reports are waiting in Takneek by the time the umpire signs the score sheet, drawn from the data behind the graphics.
One ecosystem, three levels of the game
A single camera above the umpire's chair covers district and school badminton, with automatic scoring, draws and video for every entry.
A four-camera academy setup that builds a stroke and footwork profile for every player across a season, on their phone by the end of the session.
A full review and broadcast package for sanctioned tournaments, with line calls, service rulings and on-air graphics from one tracking core.
Each figure is measured against a surveyed reference rig at your venue, then re-checked whenever the cameras move.
What federations, clubs and academies ask us about badminton
Yes. At 480 fps a shuttle leaving the racquet at 426 km/h moves about 25 cm between frames, which triangulation resolves to within 6 mm. Because the shuttle sheds speed so sharply, we report velocity at contact and velocity at the receiver's racquet separately.
The same ecosystem, tuned to a different game
Send us a hall drawing and one match recording. We will return a camera plan, a calibration report and a fully tracked rally from your own court inside ten working days.
