Scoreboard Karate

Scoreboard controller

Scoreboard controller
This project is a software-based scoreboard designed for both Kumite and Kata. The idea came from one of my instructors, who asked if I could create a tool like this to make Karate training sessions feel closer to real competition.

The goal was to build something that's simple, intuitive, and easy to use, so instructors, coaches, and judges can quickly focus on the practice rather than the software. At the same time, I wanted the scoreboard to be robust enough that it could even be used in actual competitions, not just training.

For me, this project was a great way to combine programming with my passion for Karate—and to deliver something that could make practice sessions more engaging and authentic.
