🎯SPEED GUN: A Game-Changer in Sports Tech Did you know the modern “speed gun” — that tech measuring both speed and angle of cricket (and tennis) balls — was invented in 1992 by South African engineer Henri Johnson? 🇿🇦 ✨ His creation, the SpeedGun (originally called SpeedBall), uses Doppler radar to capture the ball’s speed with pinpoint accuracy. It debuted at The Oval during the 1999 Cricket World Cup and has since become a staple in major cricket and tennis tournaments worldwide. 🏏🎾 It even paved the way for 3D tracking devices like RaquetRadar and FlightScope in golf. ⛳️ #SpeedGun#HenriJohnson#SportsTech#Cricket#Tennis#Innovation#SouthAfrica
