A new auto-scoring system for darts is making waves, potentially enhancing the game for both casual and serious players, while the sports economy as a whole is poised for significant growth. The Target Darts Omni Auto Scoring System, a light ring with cameras that connects to the DartCounter app, offers automatic scoring, an announcer, and game statistics, according to multiple sources. While the system is a pricey investment, it is easy to set up and works with most dartboards.
