Design and features
Each ChessUp board contains Capacitive sensors that detect piece movements. LEDs under each square provide visual cues for suggested moves and analysis feedback. The companion mobile app connects via Bluetooth and allows users to adjust coaching strength, track games, and analyze positions. The boards are rechargeable via USB-C and include automatic piece recognition using internal sensors. ChessUp 2 has built-in Wi-Fi and a color touchscreen.
Software and connectivity
ChessUp 2 integrates directly with Chess.com and Lichess, enabling players to use the physical board to play online matches in real time.[2] Games can also be played locally against the built-in Stockfish engine or between two human players. Firmware updates are distributed through the ChessUp app on Android and iOS, and can also be installed directly from the board’s built-in color touchscreen.
