Cone2020
The idea Cone2020 has won the ProFit Innovation competition 2012 at the FieldLab Sheffield. This intelligent and interactive play device, developed by the Dutch company Spinnov can be seen as a high-tech version of the traditional plastic practice cone used in a wide array of sports and play activities. Cone2020 can be used in football training for individual or team use as a playful element to the practice of essential ball handling skills and other training exercises. Cone2020 can also be categorized as an ‘exergame’, a game play that is considered a physical exercise.
As a result of winning the award the developers of Cone2020 have been able to produce a next step prototype that has been used for testing at the FieldLab.
