Stevens Institute of Technology has completed a major upgrade to its Dobbelaar Field, installing state‑of‑the‑art Trackman and AWRE systems that are reshaping the way its baseball and softball squads train and compete.
The Trackman apparatus employs high‑resolution radar and camera arrays to capture every nuance of a pitch, from release height and spin rate to grip dynamics, while also logging hitters’ exit velocity, launch angle and contact depth for post‑game breakdowns.
Cutting‑Edge Tracking Technology
Complementing the radar, the AWRE video platform streams each play in real time, offers instant replays from multiple angles and embeds AI‑driven scouting notes, integrating third‑party tools such as SwingAI to deliver richer analytics.
The upgrade package includes a permanent V3‑style stadium setup alongside portable B1 units that can be deployed for practice drills, ensuring that both game‑day and training environments benefit from the same advanced infrastructure.
A New Era for Stevens Baseball
Head Baseball Coach Kristaps Aldins highlighted the role of generous donors in making the technology possible, noting that the new tools not only accelerate player development but also increase the program’s visibility on the national stage.
By equipping its squads with these cutting‑edge resources, Stevens is positioning its Division III baseball program alongside the nation’s elite, opening new pathways for scouting and competitive advancement.
