then I'm afraid this one's not going to be a lot of fun because the badminton SL land gaming center is going freaking awesome. I've got Dan and the smash Champs team here to show you guys everything from the server room to the vending machines to the game cameras on the courts. Let's start with the access control. Okay, Dan, let us in. All right, here's your new Badminton Center. There you go, open the door. But that's an aerono invalid pin. But it works in. You go. It's a great start. Are there problems with the other stuff? Yeah, probably. All right, the haters might get something out of this, and they're going to get the segue to our sponsor Odo. Their all-in-one business software can help you focus on running and improving your business rather than wasting time jumping between different apps. Click the link in the description or watch till the end of this video to learn more. This is incredible. The shop looks amazing, and I noticed all the security cameras are in. There's a couple that we didn't do.

upstairs, but they're not technically our fault. What even does that mean? I'll show you later. There's lots more before we get to that. Our Pro Shop's going to be carrying a variety of BS rackets, strings, grips, and shuttles from brands like Victor and Yanx. And look at that, we've even got shoes. Did we show the stringing machines last time? I don't think so. These things are awesome. I've seen these Binton tennis racketball squash. Theoretically, these machines can do them, but I think we're only trained for badminton rackets. That's right, right? We don't know how to do tennis rackets, do we? No, we don't. No, we don't. Cool, but what we do know how to do is install TVs, and I'm really excited to show you guys how these work. Not on this one, this one I don't think is powered on yet. Oh no, hold on before we get to that. Yeah, you're going to need a point of sale system. I don't see one. Yeah, uh

there's also no ethernet for it. Did they not put the ethernet in here? My original plan there was three along here, yeah, and then at some point it got changed, and now there's none. That's for a security monitor, so there's a pull cord. Why would they put a pull cord and not the ethernet? 'Cause you didn't ask for ethernet. I did. I did get your documents out of here. I have papers to prove it. That doesn't mean I didn't ask for it. That just means I didn't make it on the drawings, okay? But the TVs have networking, right? That's right. They run on 100 Meg. Well, okay, yeah. We would have gone with high-end digital signage, but then we saw the price. It was a lot of money. And these TCL TVs, they seem fine. With that said, there may have been some advantages to going with digital since you didn't have to buy the absolute cheapest TVs. Well, let's drop in on Jake real quick. Your review of the content management system for these in five.

words or less. That's not even a word. He didn't even need words, folks. We have some learning to do, and also, I hate it. Yeah, look, once it's got some static images on it to just cycle through, it'll probably be good enough. But, uh, are you trying to put crab rave on it? Yes. Wait a second, is this like a TCL thing? It's called Zebo. It's like a signage management thing. Oh, okay, so it can run on Android. It can run on like Tyson OS. It can run on all the different things. So, we just side-loaded the app on there. It gives you a code. We're self-hosting this. It's cludy, and like, it'll look fine here, and then you get to the TV, and it's whatever that is. It's definitely playing. I can hear it, but why is it in a tiny window at the top? Also, that's got to be like 144p. Well, maybe it's 'cause it's a piece of crap, and you bought the cheapest TVs at Costco. I think it just doesn't use the hardware.

acceleration of the chip that's in this TV when it's a YouTube inent. I was going to try just uploading crab Rave as a file, but it fails with no error reason. All right, enough of what doesn't work. Let's look at what does work. Raj, you're the vending machine King, right? Yep. Okay, can I buy something? Sure, you can. Are you sure? Yeah, it's going to work. Yeah, he's staking his entire reputation on this working. Just try it. H, what should I get? Wait, why do we have Prime? Are you a Logan Paul fan? Wait, is that the Paul brother that does prime? Does it matter? No, not really. Uh, okay, I'm going to buy a Gatorade. Oh, we take tap y. Nice, it works. Success. Look at that, and it's cold. How does restocking work? Ttic. Oh wow, that's tedious. And then I P it out. No, you just twist it some more. Do the twist. Sorry. Oh, okay, cool. Oh wow, that's going to be pretty heavy with a bunch of stuff.

on it, so I can put my like half-drunk one here, and like no one would be any of the wiser. Sure, no, that's the wrong answer. You can't let me do that. It's a funny thing, right? Because until I had to buy a vending machine, I didn't think about it at all. Yeah, my understanding of vending machines is like stuck in the '90s, where they're all like super mechanical and things like that. This one's got like Windows on it, and it's got Wi-Fi, and like wow. No, I think it's more than just Wi-Fi. I think it has a cellular connection, that is, and it talks back to their servers in order to like make sure that they're getting their commission, basically. Enough about all that stuff, though. Let's move out where the real excitement is. We had these benches specially made for our Badminton Center, and there's a couple of things that are pretty cool about them. Uh, let's put one right here, which is going to be behind Court 1. First things first, it's

at exactly the right height such that you can plug in your phone to charge while you're waiting for court time. These 1ex one strips are going to have those like gym mat pads on them. Oh look, Dan has one. Cool. So when you lean against the wall, it'll be comfortable. But wait, there's more. The clearance between the legs is perfect for a badminton bag. Apparently, Chris Pi fives are priceless. Ah, that was not that great, but this is pretty great. Um, hey, hey, what'd you do? I've changed it to 4K. What? That was the solution? Yeah. Also, I found out in the settings there's an option to enable hardware acceleration all the time. Did that, and it seems like the playback is a lot better. Oh, that's great. That's passable, right? Okay, we take back most of the mean things that we... No, I still think it's stupid. We take back some of the mean things. I take back nothing. Coming back over to the court, we've got another big video-related update here. We have two of the Sony

cameras that we're going to be using for our court cams. These are going to be for live streaming tournaments or just recording game footage, so people can look at it for analysis or just for their own enjoyment. Mhmm. I know very little about them. What are they? They're the Sony SRG XP1. They're PoE powered, 4K, 60 frames a second cameras, which send live stream feeds anywhere you want. Cool. Yeah. Can they do higher than 60 frames per second? No. That's probably enough anyway though, right? I think so. I know you originally wanted 240, but getting a camera that does that with a wide-angle lens, with the kind of like, you know, streaming capabilities, IP control, and all that. Okay, but do they look good? They do. They do. Well, why don't we let the people will be the judge. Okay, we've got it configured two different ways, either landscape M or portrait. That was Jake's suggestion, sir. It was J's suggestion. Okay, there is a reason for that. See, when Dan did the modeling for what the view

should look like he expected to have the cameras mounted a little further away from the courts, but it turns out there's a wall there. As much as I hate vertical video, I'd rather use the original camera position. So let's see how we feel about the vertical mount. Here we go, Jim. Ah, oh no, oh no. Oh, the floors are not in yet. Actually, I could totally talk to you guys about the concrete that is on the floor right now. So it's less of a concrete, more of a leveling compound. The point is they sanded down the high points, and then they put this leveling compound on the low points in order to make sure that it's super flat. Oh no, enough net shot. No, how dare you. Let's see how it looks if we have the cameras farther away but shoot horizontal. Ready, Dan? I hope so. Our ceilings are super high, so you can basically hit it as high as you want. Okay, let's see how the recording went. This is real sweat. Oh, speaking of which, I don't think the HVAC solution was in.

Last time I showed you guys. So normally, if you have air conditioning or heating, you're going to have like one big duct, like somewhere up in the ceiling. It's going to be blowing an enormous volume of air, and it'll create a current inside the building. We didn't want that because it means that the shuttle will drift when it's falling down, which can be distracting and can harm your game performance. So instead, we're using what are called duct socks. Essentially, they're just fabric ends, and they go on all of these ducts all around the facility and just slowly dissipate the air out from the vents. It's not on right now. If it was, it would be all inflated. It looks kind of cool. Works kind of like a bouncy castle. Um, I hope it works. Look at how much of a smear there is behind the shuttle. M. Yeah, that doesn't look good. Good Lord, how much would it cost if we needed something with like a global shutter? So I have them completely full auto right now, but we can prioritize.

shutter. We can set a dedicated shutter speed. We can kind of do whatever we want. Might be able to fix that up. Dude, this looks like a freaking LCD from 1998. Yeah, that's not great. How much were those cameras? So, these are about 2500 bucks each. Oh good. The problem is that any other competing one is 2500 bucks, and then you need a probably a $2,000 lens per camera. And the uh, the streaming doesn't work very well. If it uh, if it helps uh, we haven't paid for these yet. They're just loners from Sony. Oh okay. So I haven't spent the $40,000. What about those Panasonic ones that I had sent you? Those were also loners. Those probably aren't going to work. Oh, the video's better, but they don't have the streaming features that you want. They're really bad. Hopefully, we can make these work. You know what? Of course, I'm hopeful. You should be. Let's go look at the other side where things are even more

interesting, especially for a lot of you folks. What was that? Okay, we were looking at it on that monitor, and we were wondering if part of it was just motion blur on the monitor. Oh dude, there's some ghosting, but it's not bad. It's not that bad. It's totally fine. Yeah. All right. Hey, all right. Maybe the cameras are good. Okay, try again. I thought the access control works, Dan. Well, wait, it's not even locked anyway. It got scared. We're going to have access control between the sides because over there is going to be all badminton all the time, but on this side, as you guys might recall, we're hoping to do LAN gaming events. Oh, um, we should not be standing on this. Has like just been late today. We're hoping to do LAN gaming events, and most of our fiber terminations and our California standard 50 amp power outlets are distributed, and perhaps more importantly, Dan, I gave you a bit of an update on this off-camera, but these guys don't know yet. We had a

really promising meeting with the city of Su. That's right, with the general manager, and he's super excited about us potentially doing Esports events here, bringing them into the city. Um, and hopefully, we're going to be able to cut through some red tape and get some land gaming going in here. Let's go! All right, but I should show you guys the fiber connections, I guess. 25 gig, and it's not terminated yet. It's only going to be 10 gig. It's going to be dual 10 gig to like each row, basically. Oh well, that's good. That's 20 gig. Yeah. Oh my God, this is awful, Jake. It's not synced. They're in a s [Music] group. I forgot our drinking fountain speaks whale. What? They have to do something. They they're going to fix it. But anyway, this is where we were heading, and behold the staff lounge. It'll be staff and members only. Okay, so it's the staff and members lounge. Yes. Okay, okay, these rooms are staff only. Yes, that's right. What happened to the server room?

well, it moved, smart guy. This looks awesome. We've got our Minit HVAC in here, completely separate from the rest of the building, just in case we have to add some, you know, Machine Vision or AI servers in here at some point to go along with our steam cash and any other associated game servers. We've got a 5,000 watt UPS. This is the fiber that's going to the court side and will serve potentially hundreds of landg goers, assuming that we can get everything sorted out with the city. And then, I mean, this is going to be what all of our security cameras, WAPs, speakers, which we're not quite ready to show you guys, but based on our early testing, are going to be really cool, and I'm really excited about them. Jake, is there anything you wanted to shout out in here? I know the fiber stuff looks pretty awesome. Here, check out in there. That's actually Pro, huh? A professional did it? Yeah, we should do that more often. Check it out. Dang, you might just have to get

taller thanks man, and we've got all the coolest stuff from ubiquity. We've got dual UDM Pro Maxes, we've got a bunch of switching up here, core switch is all hooked up now. These are going down to downstairs. This is all of our PoE switches for the cameras and APs and all that. And then we've got a couple of their NVRs, which can be stacked together in software now, handling all of our cameras, which Dan says he has an update on. Oh, and Hammond set this stuff to make the rack strong. They're actually even going to adjust the design of these racks. They had never really accounted for somebody using them for all networking, only on one side. They were meant for servers. Well, the design's getting beefed up now. What is going on with the cameras? There's a camera missing, so we don't have any security cameras for the entire courts. What? What? What happened to that? No, no, that was on the plan. Well, they're that one, yeah, but

those were supposed to be for in here. Oh well, what about the other side? The same thing that side, they misunderstood and only ran one here instead of two. So thankfully, we have enough cameras to cover this whole place here. Can we just go do Poe-powered switch and just mount two cameras? Yeah, sure, but now we have lights in the way. Oh, it's not as bad from this. They're perfect. Look at that. Badminton England calls for the lights to be at about this height, so we were like, okay, let's have the lights at this height. And then we didn't realize, hey, we've got an observation deck because we didn't VR tour the plan with the lights anyway. Yeah, we can't see very well, but that's okay. There's going to be chairs and tables all along here, so you'll kind of be able to see any who. It sounds like that's very solvable, and we'll just run an ethernet cable nicely cable managed down to there and point it that way. I have a better solution. Oh, okay, we didn't realize that.

the new hubs actually have room for two Poe cameras, and there's a hub right down there, so I can go through the drop ceiling and put one sort of in that corner, and it'll look nice there. Boxes up there, you could just stick them on the box. Yeah, that would work too. That was another thing I was considering. Okay, so there's solutions around it. All right, I'm glad we put those boxes there. Yeah, they're nice. They didn't put any boxes along the back though. You see that giant nice spaghetti? Thanks, Infinite Caes. We got some spaghetti. Wait a second, why am I not on the Wi-Fi? Um, some of the APs are running fast ethernet right now. Um, some of the cable runs are just not great. No, no, no, no, no, no. We just haven't patched everything. We've just got everything plugged in, and we haven't reorganized everything yet. Yeah, we've been having an issue where your phones and the Wi-Fi will prefer the 2.5 gig ones to the one gig. So this one here is

1 gig. The one on the ceiling in the other building is 2 and a half, so your phone wants to keep on that one. I just can't reach it. Most likely, there's also a couple that are at fast ethernet, and they might be causing some problem. I'm so glad I don't have to deal with this stuff anymore. I think that's it for today, guys. What about the room downstairs? What do you mean, the room downstairs? Oh yeah, he's never that happy when it's good news for more money. More money we need. No split system, no J, no way, no way. It's not that hot running, no speakers are running, there's barely any power draw in the building. It's like 28 in here. Shoot, okay. In fairness, I freaking thought of this, and I spec this completely differently. I spec this as two rooms with the divider still down the middle, and then with little hobbit doors that had an exhaust on the top and an intake on the bottom. So, I did spec this. We can probably fix this.

without putting a mini-split in here, it just needs some amount of cooling. Like, honestly, knock to a fan's on the top of this. Yeah, would probably be enough. In fact, Creator Warehouse kind of the same idea where there's a closet under the stairs with the Transformers in. We just added one of those duct booster fans, and the problem totally went away. Okay, but it needs something. Yeah, it needs something. This is going to be a problem once it's all right. All right, all right, all right. What about this though? Did that work? I mean, it opened. Oh, uh, they haven't put the mag strikes in yet. Yeah, I see that. Uh, why? I don't know. They didn't have enough. They didn't have enough. They ran out. Didn't you tell me that they don't want to run the wires? Yeah, it's not in their contract to actually plug them in. So when they put them in the door, I have to take them out again and plug in the two wires and then put them back in the door on the other like seven that have to be

done. You know what else has to be done? The segue to our sponsor, ODU. Imagine this: you're running a business, but it's held together by a bunch of different software. That's where ODU comes in.
