The Dynavision™ is a peg board that requires athletes to hit the red
buttons as they light up. The Sports Vision Performance Center uses the machine
to determine reaction time, peripheral awareness and accuracy of movement.
The picture shows the many different pitches a batter might face when taking
a swing. The type of ball being thrown is identifiable by the orientation
of the seams. The Sports Vision Performance Centers is geared toward athletes
and testing these specialized skills.
