Visiting again as I just found my bag of 3 net devices. I see some got the hardware to not freeze 20 minutes in. Also interested in the latest hardware version.
Seems like no big companies are interested in this. Probably the average person does not want to take the time for setup. I also left them on the courts more times than I care to admit. Funny, I am not sure any of the players after me even noticed them.

I actually found the initial set up less hassle than SwingVision (including calibrating iPhone with watch etc) so I'd prefer something like this (if it actually worked) over SW - but unfortunately, it's just not ready for prime-time: Strictly an amateur attempt that hasn't been successfully stress-tested and developed properly over its many iterations.
Just saw an add for a similar device called "Baseline".
Same concept but quite a bit more expensive.

Baseline Vision - Tennis. Re-invented
Take your tennis experience to the next level with instant statistics, gamified drills, 3D Challenges and on-court video replays. Track your performance with sessions history, dashboards and worldwide ranking. All that, using the Baseline Cam, a portable and easy-to-install single camera device.

One wonders why someone does not try to solve this use case by using smart phones alone. They are cheap, mass-produced and have much more powerful hardware than these dedicated devices. Just design a cage and mounting hardware and then it's "just" software. Cheaper to buy an extra smart phone than these problematic devices.
One could do the same with ball machines. Just skip the computer part and let a phone handle it. Cost down to half immediately...

Well, that is the premise of SwingVision, though personally it just doesn't work for me, being too fiddly to set up, not particularly accurate and very slow to process both on phone and in the cloud, so am hoping something like this (though many orders of magnitude cheaper) can become commonplace in future.
