Bocce Simulatorby XimFitX™ Book a demo

The world's first science-based bocce simulator

Real balls. True physics. No more arguing over the measure.

Throw regulation bocce balls on a flat, open floor. An overhead optical system tracks every roll, models the court surface and every collision, then measures the closest ball to the millimeter. Indoors, year-round, for every age and ability.

More than 25 million Americans already play bocce.

Now they can play in January, in the rain, and from a wheelchair. Built on United States Bocce Federation standards, with 3D collision physics and real court-boundary behavior.

How it works

From the release to the measure

This is not an arcade game. Every throw passes through the same five stages, using the patented OS-2000 overhead optical system.

  1. Throw a real ball

    Players roll regulation bocce balls and a real pallino toward the screen or down the court lane.

  2. Track the release

    High-speed ceiling cameras capture release speed, launch angle, line and rotation the instant the ball leaves the hand.

  3. Model the surface

    The engine applies the rolling resistance of the chosen court: oyster shell, gravel, packed clay or tournament turf.

  4. Resolve collisions

    Multi-ball physics transfers momentum when a throw strikes the pallino or an opponent's ball, so a spock plays out the way it would on a real court.

  5. Measure it

    A top-down view zooms in and lays a digital tape on every ball. The closest ball is settled to the millimeter.

Available courts

Four courts, ready to play today

Every Bocce Simulator ships with all four 3D venues. Pick a court before each match, then pair it with any of the four playing surfaces.

Virtual bocce court: Italian Countryside VillaCourt 1 of 4 · Heritage

Italian Countryside Villa

Rustic stone walls, olive groves and old-world European scenery.

  • Oyster shell & sand

    Slowest roll
  • Natural gravel

    Slow roll
  • Packed clay

    Medium roll
  • Synthetic tournament turf

    Fastest roll

Bars show relative rolling resistance. A lag that dies on shell will run long on turf.

  • Sub-mm automatic measure
  • 1–8 players
  • Four 3D courts
  • Four playing surfaces
  • 12–15 ft footprint
  • Real balls. True physics.

Game modes

From federation rules to a Friday social

Tournament & regulation

Play by the book

  • Official rules following United States Bocce Federation and International Bocce Federation (FIB) standards.
  • Singles, doubles or 4v4 with 12- or 16-point match limits.
  • Large heads-up display showing score, throwing order, balls remaining and distance.
Social & fast-play

Easy for any group

  • Simplified scoring and quicker turns for parties, families, resident activities and corporate events.
  • Target challenges with bonus points for hitting precision rings and trick shots.
Paralympic boccia & adaptive

Everyone plays

  • Boccia formats for the Paralympic sport, with its soft leather balls and court dimensions.
  • Configurable assists for seated players, wheelchair athletes and throwers using ramps or assistive devices.
Practice & drills

Train like a competitor

  • Lag drills to land inside radius rings around the pallino from 20 ft to 60 ft.
  • Spocking practice to knock out an opponent's ball while holding your own position.

The system

What goes into the bay

Commercial installation packages cover the whole bay. Everything that tracks the ball lives in the ceiling.

Tracking
OS-2000 overhead optical system

A ceiling-mounted sensor hub with dual high-frame-rate cameras. Captures release velocity, launch angle, trajectory and rotation.

Display
High-impact projection screen

Large-format display around 10 feet wide, with a heads-up display for score, throwing order, ball count and distance.

Equipment
Regulation bocce balls and pallino

Players throw real balls. Nothing is strapped on, held or worn.

Floor
Flat, open playing area

No floor sensors, mats or cables. A bay 12 to 15 feet wide is enough.

Software
Four courts, four surfaces, four game modes

Plus golf, putting and park golf on the same XimFitX platform.

Safety & accessibility

A flat floor with nothing to trip over

All tracking hardware lives in the ceiling. Walkers, canes and wheelchairs move freely across the court.

Zero floor obstacles

No floor sensors, tee boxes or cables. The playing surface stays level and open.

Gentle exercise

The underhand toss builds shoulder mobility, core stability, balance and hand-eye coordination without joint stress.

Every generation

Grandparents, grandchildren and adaptive athletes compete together on equal terms.

No-touch play

A 10-foot display and automatic turn detection mean nobody has to walk to a keyboard.

The market

A classic sport meets a fast-growing industry

Bocce already has a large, loyal audience. Sports simulators are one of the fastest-growing segments in recreation. The Bocce Simulator sits where the two meet.

Questions

Good to know

Do players use real bocce balls?

Yes. Players throw regulation bocce balls and a real pallino. The overhead cameras track the real ball, and the software carries its path onto the virtual court.

Which courts are available?

Four 3D courts come with every system: Italian Countryside Villa, Seaside Resort Court, Championship Indoor Stadium and Community Park Pavilion. Each can be played on oyster shell, gravel, packed clay or tournament turf.

How much space do we need?

A standard simulator bay 12 to 15 feet wide. You don't need the roughly 60-foot footprint of an outdoor court.

Is it safe for residents with walkers or wheelchairs?

Yes. The tracking system is entirely ceiling-mounted, so the floor stays flat with no sensors, mats or cables to trip over. Adaptive modes support seated and assisted throwers.

Can the same system play other sports?

Yes. Bocce runs on the XimFitX platform, which also plays traditional golf, precision putting and park golf on the same unit.

Which rules does tournament mode follow?

Tournament mode follows United States Bocce Federation and International Bocce Federation (FIB) standards, with 12- or 16-point matches in singles, doubles or 4v4.
