How Auto Scoring Provides You With Match-Specific Stats
Wingfield automatically detects and tracks your match using AI-based score recognition. As long as the match follows standard rules and no unexpected events interfere with tracking (e.g. unusual interruptions, or poor environmental conditions such as insufficient lighting or visual obstructions), the system can accurately reconstruct the full match flow, generate statistics, and create your highlight video. Please read our article about General Rules For Optimal Tracking if you haven't done yet.
☝🏻 By the way: If there were a few unclear situations during the match, the system will consider multiple possible outcomes in the background. In many cases, the correct match course can still be reconstructed after you manually confirm the final result on the Wingfield monitor end of the session.
What Can I Do To Ensure Accurate Auto Scoring?
To ensure accurate scoring and complete match reports, please follow these best practices:
-
Warm up BEFORE starting Match Mode: Any shots hit before activation may be counted as part of the match.
-
Follow the official rules of your sport: This includes correct serve order or side changes.
-
Use the side change button: Tap the button on the Monitor every time you switch sides. Assign one player to be responsible for this.
-
End rallies as soon as the point is over: Continuing to play after a point can lead to misinterpretation.
-
Avoid hitting balls over the head between points (🎾 Tennis): These could be mistakenly registered as serves.
-
Finish each service game (🎾 Tennis): Don’t stop the match mid-game (e.g. at 30:30), or the system may not be able to complete the reconstruction.
