Help HI-Sports to understand your specific needs related to pitch management, and they will help you gain the latest insights around harvesting sensor-based data from your own stadium environment.
The company describes its concern as follows: Your win in the short run: the best thinkable pitch. In the long run: an even better one. All we ask from you is to fill in this survey, in which we want to find out how you momentarily manage your pitches. We know you are using many tools and technologies already; we’ve seen the sports industry change rapidly over the past years. All sorts of innovations are finding their way to the game of football. The Johan Cruijff ArenA in Amsterdam is one of the most innovative stadiums in the world. One of their trump cards is the sensor technology we at HI-Sports have built for them. It guarantees them the perfect pitch at any given moment.
We aim to make this technology available for all sports fields, clubs, and field managers, so everyone can have a perfect pitch while saving on energy and water expenditures.
More data means more knowledge, and more knowledge means more opportunities to improve your pitch conditions. We’ve come a long way already, with achievements in the Johan Cruijff ArenA and several other stadiums. The survey is another proof of our never-ending quest for data, all with one goal: allowing you to get and maintain the best pitch.

Maybe you already measure air humidity, soil moisture, grip, ball bounce, and grass density. There are a ton of other criteria, some of which you may never have thought of, that we include in our sensor-driven measurements and are shown in our easy-to-use dashboard. We can tell you more about it in the workshops we kindly invite you to after filling in the survey. The questions focus on what you do to maintain your pitch and why you do it. With the answers, we can help you improve your results.
HiPSter and dashboard Central in our strategy are our HiPSter and a dashboard. The HiPSter looks like a mowing machine, but it’s a sensor-rich measuring device that can inform its owner not only about the quality of the pitch, centimeter by centimeter but also offers advice for improvements. Thanks to an insightful dashboard connected to the HiPSter and other sensors in the stadium, every user can immediately follow the developments of the field.
The unique, self-developed, state-of-the-art measuring equipment was built according to FIFA requirements, which is also why the professional sports organizations that have piloted the HiPSter are so happy about it. Simply put, it speaks the language of the game.
Our guiding principle: better pitches for professional athletes worldwide. Our data-driven solutions, in whatever form, are the means to that end. Our new sensor technology is available for the market now. With the insights gained from your answers to our survey, we can advise you on how to use your own data in the best possible way.
We look forward to seeing you in the Johan Cruijff ArenA!
