CueMate Product Family
iCueMotion's first commercial application is its CueMate™ line of sensors and software for sports. CueMate™ is much more than a sensor. It is a movement skills training ecosystem we've designed to help players train and improve their skills faster and more efficiently in their sport.
A New Ecosystem
Cuemate works across multiple domains of motion skills because its proprietary technology builds on the fundamental characteristics of movement performance and learning. Greater outcomes in technique are achieved using CueMate.
Movements across activities support key interactions; therefore, performing these efficiently is critical to proficiency. In addition, most activities require a repertoire of different movement forms adapted to specific conditions and outcomes. This is particularly critical in so-called open motor tasks or activities in which you interact with a dynamic environment.
CueMate focuses on primary movement interactions in an activity and how to acquire a repertoire of movement skill elements that is rich in versatility and highly effective under a range of conditions and outcomes.

How It Works
Here is a brief explanation of how the CueMate Tennis app works. To experience the actual product visit tennis.cuemate.com
The Experience
CueMate is a systematic, iterative, and data-driven skill development experience.
Unlike other apps that mainly produce performance assessments, CueMate not only tells you how well you perform but also provides the necessary diagnostics feedback to tell you why you are performing at that level and what you need to adjust in your movement techniques to improve.
Furthermore, everyone starts from a different place, may have different goals, and have their own unique path.
CueMate's Training Process
Natural learning is a process involving incremental changes that lead to specific larger transformations. Yet, spending 10,000 hours on a court is not enough to achieve mastery.
CueMate provides the tools to operationalize this process. Systematically select the aspects that will help you get to the next stage, track the progress until that stage is reached, and then reassess.
The brain learns faster with immediate feedback. CueMate gives real-time audio “cues” to reinforce good technique during performance based on individualized goals.
- Systematically assess
- Set goals and feedback
- Perform with instant feedback
- Review Training results
- Repeat

How It Works / Tennis
An example workflow for tennis:
Play
Julia warms up for 15 minutes.Review & Select
Based on CueMate's assessment Julia selects "Wiper" drill to help her top spin.Play & Cue
Julia plays another set this time focusing on her wiper move, and receives real-time feedback.Review
Julia finishes her session and gets confirmation that her training session was successful.
