After a decade of leading the baseball/softball training industry, HitTrax is venturing into the entertainment sector with HitTrax Suite.
“The traditional HitTrax platform was designed for engaging a player while hitting in a standard batting cage that is typically 40ft to 70 ft in length. As the system reached new audiences, we found that a smaller footprint was necessary to fit into retail stores that wish to provide their customers with new in-store experiences. Thus, the HitTrax Suite was born. The tech is now commonplace in retail stores across the country with family entertainment centers, restaurants, etc. following suit,”
-Mike Donfrancesco, HitTrax’s CEO.
WHAT IS HITTRAX SUITE?
HitTrax Suite delivers an unforgettable immersive baseball experience. With an integrated custom pitching machine, this baseball simulator appeals to people of all ages, reigniting their passion for America’s favorite pastime. And as an MLB-licensed partner, HitTrax Suite enables customers to hit in all 30 virtual Major League stadiums, while the HitTrax advanced tracking technology measures each batted ball and precisely recreates the ball’s flight.
WHAT DOES THE HITTRAX SUITE PACKAGE INCLUDE?
The standard HitTrax Suite includes a HitTrax sensor, HD projector & high-impact screen, turf, cage infrastructure, integrated pitching machine, interactive SmartPlate, kiosk, and Featherlite balls.
WHAT GAMES DOES HITTRAX SUITE OFFER?
HitTrax Suite currently offers four different types of game modes including batting practice, team battle, point game, and home run challenge.
Batting Practice allows guests to step into the cage and take swings with real-time metrics to show r performance. Players can see how far and how hard they hit the ball in their favorite MLB ballpark.
Team Battle is a fun and competitive take on the game we all know and love. 2 teams will go head-to-head in an intense matchup to see who can score the most runs in 3 or more innings of gameplay.
In Point Game, each player gets a limited number of pitches to rack up as many points as possible. The speed, distance, and play outcome of each hit determines the number of points awarded. The player with the most points at the end of gameplay wins.
Homerun Challenge is just like the classic game that you see in the Big Leagues. Hit as many homers as you can in an allotted time and you will be crowned home run champ!
Each module can be played with one or more players!
