Align your camera properly

Before we walk you through the three mounting options, there's one important thing to understand: camera alignment and calibration. Regardless of which mounting option you choose, proper alignment is essential for reliable ball tracking.

To ensure the camera angles can cover the entire court, the Dual Camera Module (DCM) must extend slightly into the court. With 🔗 Mounting Option 1, the supplied spacers automatically ensure the correct offset. For the other two mounting options, you'll need to make sure the DCM extends far enough into the court yourself.

⚠️ Attention: The following illustration shows the correct alignment using one of the three mounting options as an example.

❌ Incorrect

In this example, the Dual Camera Module does not extend far enough into the court. As a result, the front areas of the court are obstructed by the crossbar and cannot be tracked properly.

✅ Correct

Here, the Dual Camera Module extends slightly into the court, ensuring that all corners of the court are clearly visible.

  4. Screw it down: Drill and fasten the DCM to the bar, but don't fully tighten the screws yet — you'll do that in step 5. Choose one of the two options below.

    ⚠️ Attention: Only drill once you're sure of the position — holes in the cage can't be undone.

    You have two options:

  3. Position the DCM on the cage: Place the Dual Camera Module (DCM) on top of the crossbar, centered above the baseline. As a rule of thumb, the camera angle is correct when the rear edge of the camera housing is flush with the court-facing edge of the crossbar.
