Connected Training System for Athletes

Drilllight concept

An interactive tool to boost reflexes

Drilllight is a connected light-training solution designed for coaches and professional athletes. Developed for a French sport-tech startup, the system measures reaction time, coordination, and movement speed in real time.

The goal: to design a compact, durable, and connected product that can be easily deployed in the field while providing reliable and actionable performance data.

Our technical approach

A multidisciplinary design combining mechanics, electronics, and functional product design.

Drilllight electronics

Electronics & firmware

A smart and reliable electronic core.

  • + PCB design with high-intensity LEDs
  • + Low-power processor and long-range Wi-Fi
  • + MQTT network for real-time synchronization
  • + Embedded Linux firmware optimized for speed and autonomy
Drilllight mechanical design

Mechanical & product design

Built for durability and ease of use.

  • + Waterproof plastic housing
  • + Optimized LED visibility and heat management
  • + Modular structure for fast maintenance
Drilllight testing

Testing & validation

Intensive field testing and validation.

  • + Radio range and sensor reactivity testing
  • + Energy optimization and impact resistance validation
  • + CE pre-series certification

Results & impact

The product was industrialized in small series and deployed across several professional sports clubs in France and Europe. It provides coaches with real-time performance data and has significantly improved athletes’ training efficiency.

Status: pre-series production – B2B commercialization
