Innovation doesn’t always mean reinventing the wheel—sometimes, it’s as simple as reimagining the hoop.
Meet Huupe (pronounced “hoop”), the world’s first smart basketball hoop, built to track your performance, correct your form, and even connect you with players around the world. Whether you’re looking to get serious about your shot or just want to elevate your home or office fun, Huupe is bringing the game into the digital age—without losing its soul.
🚀 From Garage to Global
Huupe started in a garage in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and five years later, it’s now used by players worldwide. Designed with athletes and casual players in mind, the hoop is available in both full-size for gyms and schools, and a Mini Huupe for home, office, or dorm room play.
What makes it different? Huupe uses radar and lidar sensors—not cameras—to track your shots. This choice wasn’t just about innovation; it was about respecting your privacy, especially in home environments.
🔍 What Huupe Tracks
Huupe delivers real-time feedback by analyzing:
- Shot distance
- Accuracy and trajectory
- Form correction (like follow-through or knee bend)
- Instant performance stats after every shot
It’s like having a personal coach built right into your backboard.
🏀 Play Anytime, Anywhere
The Mini Huupe is perfect for indoor spaces and mounts easily over a door or wall. You can:
- Challenge friends in different cities to games like HORSE or three-point contests
- Participate in global challenges like “most in a minute”
- Track your stats over time, whether you’re shooting foam balls, paper wads, or real mini basketballs
Yes—it works with any ball.
🔮 What’s Next?
While Huupe already offers basic improvement tips, it’s getting smarter with every shot you take. Over time, its AI will offer more personalized coaching suggestions to help players of all skill levels improve even faster.
Whether you’re a high school athlete or someone who loves an impromptu office shootout, Huupe brings connectivity, fun, and data-driven feedback to a game we all know and love.
