Club tracking systems - optical sensors

(go to Camera page for camera club tracking)

PX2 Sensor Mat with FiberBuilt synthetic long grass top panels

GSA Golf full version software with 85 courses plus ProX software with 20 courses.

 

Fiber Built Sensor Mat and Frame fully assembled with built-in electronics 

-GSA Sensor Mats feature a massive solid acrylic glass 1/2 inch thick plate to protect the internal electronics.

The construction is so sturdy you can drive a 10 ton truck over it!

When you consider that the force of a club on the mat can be as high as 4000 pounds per square inch,

you'll appreciate the need for a very strongly constructed product that can withstand these forces if it is to last.

The GSA Pro Mat features FiberBuilt true feel grass mat panels.

Data captured

1. Club head velocity

    2. Club head face angle at impact to ball

    ( degrees club-head open or closed at moment of impact in relation to club head path )

    3. Club head path   i.e. Square, in-to-out, out-to-in. 

    4. Horizontal ball position at impact on club face

    Internal circuitry is built to the highest industrial standards using the latest robot assembly methods.

    96 sensors, 2 * 16 bit counters, Serial I/O, Data bus expansion port

    Maximum measurable club speed : 270 mph  at +/- 0.5 mph accuracy

    Minimum measurable club speed : 1.15 mph +/- 0.0001 mph accuracy

    Speed accuracy at 100 mph : +/- 0.065 mph

    Club-face angle at impact to ball : +/- 0.0001°

    Maximum measurable Club Path : 24° in-to-out 29° out-to-in +/- 0.65°

    Mat dimensions: H = 7cm - 2 3/4" W = 30 cm - 12" L 61 cm - 24"

    Advanced mathmatical algorithms in the software calculate (not measure) ball spin and spin axis tilt

    from the club-face angle, club path, loft and velocity which determines the ball flight curve

    ie. draws, fades, hooks and slices.

! Comes complete with ProX & GSA Golf Simulation 85 course software !

E6 software upgardes available

USB connection to PC

Example major advantages compared to other optical Sensor mat/pad systems in this price category:

1. Extremely robust large hitting pad/mat featuring 1/2 inch acryl glass plate and soft FiberBuilt top panels.-

-3. Two fantastic true 3D golf simulation software packages with 85 golf courses included

4. Extensive upgrades available including professional 3D camera ball tracking. -

5. GSA sensor mats feature 96! on-board optical sensors.

That's up to 5 times more than on our competitor's pads

7. Roll of wall carpeting What's this?

Support experience has shown that the biggest issue with camera systems - when customers install systems themselves - is reflection from the wall and floor covering in the field of view of the cameras.

We thus decided to supply a roll of our low reflective wall covering carpet to resolve this issue should it occur.

The GSA PX5 is the world's first true 3D camera system at anywhere near this price.

Important advantages with this system compared to others on the market in this price segment:

System does not confine you to hit the ball from the same spot so you can play from other simulated surfaces such as rough, sand and greens.

Especially putting and chipping is a pleasure.

Unlike other systems, our cameras detect all shots including putts and so does not require extra putting sensors.

Our camera ball tracking system is true 3D and captures all three X,Y and Z parameters while others are just 2D and miss the Z component.

X is left/right direction = ball path, Y the vertical up/down or ball height = vertical launch angle and Z is the depth distance = ball speed.

Pros and Cons of this system compared to other GSA systems

Pros : Full feature Club tand Ball racking, great full version software, ability to play ball from other surfaces, putting from green surface using normal stance, ball spin and axis tilt calculated

Cons : Setup takes longer, more expensive to purchase


CX2 professional 3D dual camera ball tracking system

package includes

1. Vcam Vertical launch angle and ball speed camera

2. Hcam Ball path camera

Note: Our cameras are professional high speed machine vision cameras

3. TX Optical sensor camera trigger in solid acrylic casing

4. GSA full version software with 85 golf courses plus 20 ProX courses

5. 2 lamp halogen track lighting system

Pros and Cons of this system compared to other GSA systems

Pros : Full feature Ball racking, great full version software, ability to play ball from other surfaces, putting from green surface using normal stance

Cons : Setup takes longer, no club tracking, ball spin estimated


Line Scan Camera Trigger

An alternative to the TX optical sensor camera trigger is to use a special third camera known as a line scan camera.

The GSA line scan camera operates at over 3000 scans per second and generates a trigger signal to the ball tracking cameras as soon as a golf ball enters it's field of view.

See camera section for pricing.

SX measured ball spin and spin axis tilt laser detection system

Coming soon

Both ball spin in RPM as well as spin axis tilt in degrees is captured using IR lasers and sensors.

System uses a super high speed ADC (Analog Digital Converter) capable of capturing 800 samples of a ball travelling at 170 mph from multiple angles.

Player is not required to use marked or special balls.

Production date January 2012.

Current price estimation $1499./Euro 999

-

Pros and Cons of this system compared to other GSA systems

Pros: System actually measures ball spin as opposed to calculating it from from club head data.

Even though ball spin axis tilt is a product of relative-to-path club face angle at impact to ball, there is virtually no system on the market that can measure the actual spin rate as such.

Please note: It is important to differentiate between the terms "calculated" and "measured".

Cons: Ball must be played from same set position
