Pace S Series is not just a tennis robot—it’s your smart training partner. Equipped with advanced AI and intelligent sensors, it can intelligently adjust its serves based on your movement patterns, providing a match-like training experience that helps you enhance your skills. With built-in NTRP training modes suitable for players of all levels, it supports your journey from beginner to expert. Are you ready to elevate your tennis training to the next level?

Whether you want to practice baseline strokes or volleys, simply activate the customization feature in the app to create your personalized drills. In the custom drill mode, you can adjust parameters such as the landing point, ball speed, spin type, spin rate, and serve frequency for each shot from the Pace S Series. The multi-dimensional customization of ball characteristics makes training more comprehensive and flexible, significantly enhancing training efficiency.


You can customize the parameters of each ball separately, enabling you to choose between high speed with low spin or high spin with low speed. This flexibility caters to a variety of training situations.

With the support of Smart Sensor, Pace S Pro can track the player’s position on the court and respond instantly, simulating the challenges of a real opponent. Whether you are a beginner or a professional tennis player, Pace S Pro will deliver shots tailored to your NTRP level, matching your abilities with appropriate difficulty. 

The Pace S Pro features intelligent adaptive ball frequency. Once players select a training set, the Pace S Pro uses sensors to detect when players return to their ready position before serving the next ball. As beginners advance, this mode enhances their return habits with more diverse shot placements, including net volleys, overhead smashes, and forehand and backhand strokes. The Pace S Pro intelligently adjusts its ball frequency, recognizing when the player is ready before serving the next game-like ball.

The NTRP Smart Training system adjusts the landing points based on players’ skill levels, ensuring the ball lands in suitable areas. This feature is powered by the Smart Sensor working in sync with Pace S Pro, capturing the player’s real-time position on the court. Once the player’s location is determined, the machine delivers shots accordingly. This system ensures that compared to random shot modes in other machines, the Pace S Pro provides logically coherent shot sequences, avoiding inefficient training caused by illogical ball patterns.

Powered by over 100,000 live match data points, Pace S Pro’s smart match mode leverages AI algorithms to analyze player’s movement in real-time. It delivers balls with varying spin, speed, and placement, mimicking the real match conditions. 

After finishing the drill, players can review the performance data report in the Tennis App. They can compare their stats with professional athletes, monitor if their training meets performance standards, access advanced drills from elite players in the Training Community to keep elevate their skills.

Pace S Pro offers two convenient control methods: the mobile APP and the P-CONTROL remote. Both methods enable one-touch activation of the machine, but your primary difference lies in the app’s ability to create Custom Drills. Once these drills are created, the P-CONTROL can wirelessly sync with the app, saving the drills onto the remote. This way, players only need to carry the lightweight P-CONTROL during training, eliminating the need to keep a phone in your pocket at all times.

Upload and share the custom training drills with players around the world, while also downloading and integrating others’ training drills to enrich and challenge users’ practice plans.

With OTA updates, users of the Pongbot Pace S Series can anticipate an expanding selection of preset shot options. It not only connects seamlessly with smart devices like intelligent rackets, smart ball collectors, and data-gathering Hawk-Eye systems but also pairs with various wearable devices, including smart wristbands and Apple Watches. This continuous evolution allows users to immerse themselves in an entirely new smart tennis ecosystem, transforming their training experience like never before.

The Pace S Pro comes with 300 Preprogrammed Drills*, featuring more than 50 different shot patterns, each with three difficulty levels. As the difficulty increases, the shot speed and frequency intensify. All Preprogrammed Drills are adaptable for left-handed and right-handed players with a single switch. These drills cover most of the shot patterns required for regular tennis training and can be easily activated via the remote or the app.

*Pace S Pro: 50 patterns * 3 levels * 2 sides = 300 drills
*Pace S: 20 patterns * 3 levels * 2 sides = 120 drills
