Features & Capabilities

The new AMICUS PRIME sets out to redefine the possibilities of a table tennis robot and will excite fans all over the world. The innovative PRIME is controlled wirelessly via Bluetooth technology from the AMICUS App running on iPhone. AMICUS app software offers a multitude of interactive content, improved and added to with regular updates. Creating exercises, changing spin, speed, placement and trajectory has never been easier. Pre-saved exercises created by professional players and coaches are playable at the press of a button with in-app videos by stars such as Tiago Apolonia just waiting to show the correct execution. Get acquainted with our AMICUS flagship model and discover the new possibilities of the most tireless, and always ready, training partner you will find.

Special features of AMICUS PRIME:

  • Control the intensity of the exercise by selecting ball frequency from 5 to 120 balls per minute.
  • Vary spin, speed, trajectory, and placement from ball to ball. Control each function through this app.
  • Use this mobile application to connect wirelessly via Bluetooth to your AMICUS PRIME robot.
  • Keep the software and firmware up to date with help of the app. App notifies you when new update is available.
  • Left-Right (mirror) switch for reversing drills to match the dominant hand of the user so forehand/backhand placements are correct. Also can instantly provide a reversed version of any asymmetrical exercise without creating a new exercise.
  • Test individual balls within an exercise with the Sample function.
  • Individual Frequency Control (IFC) can customize the time interval between any two consecutive balls, especially useful when there is a large difference in ball speed; for example, a short, slow backspin serve followed by several fast, long topspin balls.
  • Incorporate interval training into your table tennis practice sessions with the Cycle function.
  • Pre-programmed with 21 exercises created by German Butterfly Coach Richard Prause, which can be modified or replaced. Restore these pre-programmed exercises with the Restore Factory Exercises function.
  • Watch the integrated demonstration videos to learn how to properly perform each pre-programmed exercise.
  • Save virtually unlimited exercises—limited only by available memory of the device used to run the app.
  • Sequence together multiple exercises so they run automatically one after the other, or randomly.
  • Use the key-fob-like remote control (small, lightweight and easy to fit in pocket) to start and stop ball delivery and change ball frequency.

User Reviews

Users praise the Amicus Prime app for its ease of use, fast Bluetooth pairing, and strong solo-practice capabilities with extensive drill customization. However, several reviews report bugs in drill saving/importing, unreliable features like wait serve and ball-per-minute adjustments, and data persistence issues. There are also concerns about cross-device reliability and account data storage. Overall, the app is valued for planning and executing drills at home, but reliability and feature-stability improvements are needed.
Pros
  • Easy-to-use UI and quick setup on iPad
  • Fast, reliable Bluetooth connection to the Amicus Prime
  • Excellent for solo practice with on-demand drills and customizable routines
  • Drill customization and saving programs (spin, trajectory, spacing) with iPad compatibility
  • Helpful app features like a sample button and random-ball drills that simulate real play
Cons
  • Bugs affecting drill saving/importing and general data persistence (saved drills may not save or import reliably)
  • Some features (wait serve, ball-per-minute adjustment) are unreliable or don’t work as advertised on iOS
  • Difficulty storing user data by account and maintaining settings across sessions
  • Cross-device/hardware variability: performance can be inconsistent with non-Apple hardware or different devices (Android tablet issues)

This robot is a great training tool, which I can customize the programs for my routine exercises easily through the iPad that came with the package. I love the features of random balls that make me feel closer to actual games. I highly recommend this robot for those who want to practice at your comfortable place at any time.
