The importance of the research lies in developing the speed of motor response through the manufacture of a laser electronic device that works with remote control technology. The speed of motor response has an important role in the performance of skills because it is an important physical ability for many sports. The research problem is what determines the type of method that the researcher chooses to reach the required results. Therefore, the two researchers used the experimental method (one-group design) with two pre- and post-tests to suit the nature and problem of the research. The research aims to design an innovative electronic device with remote control to develop movement response speed and identify the values of some kinematic variables of the forehand in the game of tennis. The two researchers concluded that the innovative device helped develop the trait of movement response speed and that the research sample achieved remarkable progress in the values of this trait as well as the values of some of the kinematic variables under research. The two researchers recommended the need to use modern devices in training, including a device for developing motor response speed, especially in games that require this characteristic, as well as the need to pay attention to using motor analysis to know the level that players achieve during the training period and to apply the correct biomechanical conditions while performing the tennis forehand skill.
