The HiPSter is supporting the groundsmen to get track of the quality and safety of their sports pitch, and stay in control of the important game and safety properties of the pitch. An all-in-one measurement tool which presents the data automatically in the groundsmen’s dashboard, so they can directly analyse and act without any (manual) administration.
The Dashboard also serves as an independent tool to communicate with the players and other stakeholders about the quality of the pitch.
And that is without mentioning the direct safety aspect: many injuries can be prevented with a safe pitch: another major cost item in modern top sport, not to mention the personal suffering.
The field manager takes the HiPSter to the desired location. With the simple press of a button on the HiPSter’s interface, the measurements can be conducted. These measurements are performed without any interference of the user, resulting in objective and reliable values.
When the measurements are finished, the results are immediately sent to the dashboard for further interpretation and analysis.
The dashboard supports groundmen in the organization and interpretation of the measured values. Next to that it can be able to predict the future quality of the pitch based on historical data.
Besides performance data, measured with the HiPSter, the dashboard supports data from soil sensors, weather stations, lighting units or player fleedback too.
The dashboard can also act as a managing tool to keep track of the work performed in a certain period.
Being able to combine all these information sources in an easy way, the dashboard will become your main tool for smart pitch management.
The Dashboard has become the groundsmen’s most important tool. At any given moment, it’s possible to check to what extent a part of the field deviates from the desired goals and regulations.
Thanks to the predictive property of the system it provides real time insights into the maintenance activities required for a perfect pitch, the whole year round.
The underlaying goal for organizations and stadiums will be to grow in sustainability, circularity and to grow the business.
The dashboard is available for individual clubs as well as for complete leagues. It helps to develop a uniform standard within the competition and promotes knowledge sharing and innovation between clubs.
Hi Sports systems as the HiPSter can also be integrated into existing dashboards as both the HiPSter as well as the Dashboard can be used as standalone systems.
The final goal: better pitches for professional athletes around the world, is our guiding principle.
Complementary to the HiPSter, we offer a Multispectral Camera system. The system consists of two camera’s attached to the roof of the stadium With the two smart cameras, 24/7 data can be collected on the density and vitality of the pitch (NDVI/NDRE) enabling early-phase detection of diseases in the pitch. Grass density and vitality data is instantly visible in the Dashboard.
When climate data is used, this data can be managed in a dashboard component called ‘Sensor Suite’. This part of the dashboard collects, organizes, and visualizes all sensor data you need as a field manager or agronomist. This information is crucial for your sports pitch’s optimal growth and recovery.
Hi Sports can provide hardware or connect with existing sensors. The sensor suite will then help to organize and interpret this collected data. We present the results in an intuitive way that helps you to act quicker and more accurately to weather changes.
We replace gut feeling with real detailed insights from each individual sports pitch. By getting insights into your actual climate situation, you can directly start to make data-driven decisions. This results in 80% more effective turf maintenance from day one.
