BURLINGTON, Mass.–(Business Wire)–
L-3 Aerospace Electronics announced today its launch of PitchSight, a
next-generation instructional system designed to help coaches and baseball
professionals evaluate pitchers at all skill levels and help them hone their
craft and improve accuracy. The system is also well-suited as a rehabilitation
tool, measuring whether a pitcher is ready to return to the field after an
injury and improving pitching mechanics to avoid the risk of future injuries.

Based on the same proven technology as L-3`s QuesTec Umpire Information System,
which has been used by Major League Baseball (MLB) for nearly a decade,
PitchSight is a computerized system that includes software running on a
ruggedized laptop networked to two state-of-the-art high-speed cameras. The
system is designed to be professionally installed in a bullpen or pitching cage
to accurately assess each throw in real time and determine where the pitcher
needs improvement or adjustment. This first of its kind system provides a true
three-dimensional, five-point analysis of pitching mechanics for training and
instruction, unlike traditional radar and videotape, which is based solely on
speed and visual cues.

“PitchSight was built from the ground up to take pitching instruction to the
next level,” said two-time Cy Young Award winner Tom Glavine. “As a former MLB
pitcher, it`s easy to see how PitchSight can speed up and enhance the
development of a young pitcher while also helping accomplished pitchers maintain
accuracy and consistency.”

“The PitchSight system showed immediate results for our team`s pitching staff,”
said Mik Aoki, head coach of Boston College, which installed the system prior to
the beginning of the 2010 baseball season. “Using PitchSight accelerated the
development of some of our younger pitchers and helped our upperclassmen hone
their skills. Overall, there was marked improvement once we began using
PitchSight.”

The five essential pitching elements measured by PitchSight include:

* Release Point: which shows arm mechanics
* Speed Distribution: which shows power through the ball, or speed
* Location: which shows consistent delivery and control
* Release Angle: which shows hand mechanics
* Break: which reveals spin velocity and angle

Once these components are determined, PitchSight`s software displays the results
in an easy-to-use graphical format. The interface enables each pitch to be
viewed as it happens, as well as in groups over the course of a session. The
results of past training sessions can be retrieved and compared with the current
session with just a few clicks of a mouse. Users can compare sessions, pitchers
and pitch types. All data gathered by PitchSight is saved into an
enterprise-grade database allowing the software to be networked and shared
throughout an organization without the need for specialized personnel.
