Airless Tennis Ball

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Airless Tennis Ball

The Airless Tennis Ball concept uses generative design to create an optimized internal structure that removes the need for pressurized air while improving durability, sustainability and long-term performance.

Airless tennis ball internal lattice concept

The Challenge

The challenge was to develop a sports product concept that could deliver consistent performance without relying on internal air pressure.

The Solution

An optimized lattice-like internal geometry was used to support rebound behavior, durability and reduced material waste.

The Result

The concept introduces a sustainable and long-lasting alternative to traditional pressurized tennis balls for future sports product development.

AIRLESS

No pressurized core requirement

DURABLE

Long-life internal structure direction

SUSTAINABLE

Reduced waste product concept

TECHNICAL SCOPE

What this project demonstrates

This project is presented as an engineering design direction with defined goals, constraints and next-step validation awareness.

Project type

Sports product concept using internal geometry instead of a pressurized core.

Design goal

Explore long-life rebound behavior, reduced air-pressure dependency and a more sustainable product structure.

Engineering note

Final performance would require material testing, rebound measurement, durability testing and manufacturing feasibility review.

Deliverables

Internal geometry concept, product visualization, CAD direction and future validation path.
