“The Project is based on my Instructables from the last year: Bluetooth Table Tennis Scoreboard
The Scoreboard is dedicated for amateur sport fans and table tennis player But it is not applicable just for table tennis. Can be used for other sports like Volleyball, Badminton and each sport which require points counting. By simple software change, software could be adopted to any maximal points value in match.
Technical principle is based on communication via Bluetooth between Table unit (unit under table) and Scoreboard itself. Two Control Boxes are mounted under table on each player side and connected by cable to Table Unit. Player after each winning point press big touch button on Control Box. According that action, score is changed on board to value plus one point..
Comparing to old project there are some substantial improvements:
Scoreboard is safety. No more main voltage 220V! Power supply consist of two Li-ion battery blocs, each with two batteries, type 18560. Table Unit remain powered by one battery Li-ion 18560.
Construction is simplified and all components are located on one larger print circuit board.
Frame is smaller and thinner, about 3.0 cm and size exactly A4.
Software is a new version with corrected errors.
Main features:
Large 7-segments display 2.3 inch
Touch control buttons
Software controlled rules according international rules for Table Tennis
Bluetooth transfer data from table to Scoreboard
Battery states indicators
Battery operating time min. 5 hours (Scoreboard), and about 12 hours for Control Panel
Control boxes under table on each player side
Table Unit mounted under table connected to two control boxes Control box with front touch button allow to add score plus one point for each player
Control box with back touch button allow correction minus one in case of mistake
Correction is accepted only for player with the last increased score value
Sound confirmation for each press of button
Different melody sound at the end of game and match
Final score is displayed 10 second after the end of match
End match activates start of a new game by entering to setting mode
Setting allow to select:
Number of games for match, preset is 3, options 4 to 9
The first serving player A or B, preset A
Change side after each game, if side is switched, displayed score on the Scoreboard is switched as well
