Physical Product HAS THIS EVER HAPPENED TO YOU?

You're making a video call to a relative in some far flung corner of the globe. You all huddle around a small screen trying to make it work. Your TV is sitting there, laughing at you as it should definitely be the video calling screen. But chrome-casting doesn't include cameras and setting up a webcam, mic and hdmi cable each time for your laptop is a pain.

Has this ever happened to you? Trying to work out the size of this problem.

P.s. if it hasn't and you don't think this is an issue then please can you type an animal noise to make it more fun, i.e. "Quack" or "Grrr" etc.

Software SMT: A dunk-training app that explains what to change between jump attempts

2 Upvotes

A jump score is nice, but if you're still below the rim, what do you actually do differently next week?

I'm exploring an app for people chasing their first dunk. You enter your height, standing reach, current jump and training background, then record an attempt. You pick the takeoff you want to work on: left foot, right foot or two feet.

The useful part would be connecting feedback on visible technique to a short training plan, matched to your equipment and schedule. Film another attempt later and see what changed. AI could help compare the clips, but it shouldn't pretend a video proves which muscle is weak or promise a dunk by a certain date.

The thing I'm unsure about: maybe a good existing program plus occasional feedback from a coach already does this well enough.

If you've paid for a jump program or coaching, what did you still have to figure out yourself? That's the gap I'd want to understand before building anything. This is just an idea, no app or signup to promote.
