LYMB.iO

What LYMB.iO does

LYMB.iO GmbH is a Munich-based hardware and SaaS startup (founded 2016, 11-50 employees) that builds interactive sports and gaming systems combining augmented-reality wall projection with proprietary ball-tracking and touchless gesture sensors. Its core consumer product, LYMB ONE, is marketed as the first physical gaming system for home use that enables "Free Motion Gaming," allowing players to use their body and a ball as controllers without wearable sensors; it ships with 45+ games across entertainment, education, fitness, and training categories and is sold via a Shopify-based DTC storefront at a $3,406 pre-order price point, with an additional projector required. The company's commercial arm centers on MultiBall — described as the world's leading interactive sports wall with 2,185+ systems installed in 76+ countries — alongside two adjacent products, interactiveSQUASH and interactiveRACQUETBALL, which upgrade conventional courts with the same tracking technology. The proprietary stack includes the LYMB.iO Ballfinder Sensor (v.2.105), the Highspeed Touchless-Sensing Engine (v.1.45), and Intel RealSense D450 depth sensing integrated with Intel Pentium N4200 compute.

The business model is primarily hardware sales with embedded software/content: LYMB ONE is sold as a one-time perpetual unit to home users via DTC e-commerce, while MultiBall, interactiveSQUASH, and interactiveRACQUETBALL are sold through direct commercial channels to sports venues, fitness facilities, educational institutions, and professional training programs (the latter with a 5-year warranty for 24/7 usage). GTM spans both consumer (Shopify store, social media, Kickstarter, beta-user testimonials) and enterprise (direct sales) motions. Customer segments are horizontal across home users/families, education/childcare, professional athletes, commercial fitness facilities, and healthcare/physical-therapy providers; key use cases include sedentary-lifestyle intervention, gamified fitness, multi-generational family gaming, athletic skill training, and rehabilitation.

The company has disclosed approximately $2.75M in cumulative funding across three rounds (2016, 2017, and a 2020 round led by ASICS Ventures Corporation) and is led by founder/CEO Markos Aristides Kern. No revenue, ARR, or valuation figures have been disclosed. Proprietary IP is protected through registered trademarks/trade names for "LYMB.iO" and "Free Motion Gaming," plus patents/trade secrets underpinning the Ballfinder and Touchless-Sensing engines. Operational signals — copyright dated 2026, active storefront, pre-order flow, multi-channel social presence across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter — indicate an actively operating company, though product delivery milestones, actual sell-through, and post-2020 commercialization velocity are not evidenced in the available data.
