Advantage and disadvantage for different type of sensors (Radar, vision, light sensor)

Classification Rader Type Vision Type Combination of Light Sensor and Camera
(X-GOLF NEX)
Fundamentals
  • When players shot a ball outside, radar continuously tracks movement of a ball
  • Install at least two cameras that has the certain angle towards a ball.
  • When a player shots a ball, each camera captures a movement by certain period at the same time. (Camera should take at least 2 pictures)
  • Interpret the size and location of a ball on display and calculate the speed and a direction of a ball.
  • Interpret and calculate the spin by marked section of a ball on display.
  • Obtain movement of a ball and club (horizontal and vertical) by using a light sensor
  • Take a picture of a marked ball using a camera
  • Calculate space vector of club and a ball
  • Calculate the spin by interpreting image processing for marked section of a ball
Advantage
  • Differences may exists depending on performance of simulators, but data that tracked ball movements at outside is accurate.
  • However, indoor screen golf only tracks short distance, not total movement of a ball and it is comparably inaccurate.
  • To get accurate rev counts, obtain accurate images of a marked ball and process it with high-performance image processing tool.
  • Easy installation and user-friendly when it compares to light sensor type.
  • As for premium light sensor type, it has the best accuracy for repetition.
Disadvantage
  • When radar type is used to track short distance shot happened indoor, analysis data is comparably inaccurate.
  • Especially, analysis data for short distance approach or putting is not usable as a data.
  • If camera fails to obtain accurate images of a marked ball, rotation of a ball calculated is inaccurate
  • For measuring speed or a direction, accuracy is less than using a light sensor.
  • The technological gap about image processing will have the different deviation of accuracy.
  • If using a multi-channel, high performance, and high-speed system, it's hard to measure essential element accurately using a high speed.
※ The product specifications are subject to change for improvements.

Type and Purpose of Auxiliary Equipment for Golf

1. Launch monitor (radar, vision or combination type)
  • The main purpose of launch monitor is for club fitting. It reproduces after measuring movement of a ball (space vector, rotation) when making a shot using a test club under specific condition.
2. Screen Golf (radar, vision, light sensor or combination type)
  • The primary purpose of screen golf is for entertainment and swing analysis indoor. Just like a real game, many players can join to play, and it reproduces after measuring the movement of a ball (space vector, rotation) when making a shot using the variety of clubs.
3. Analyzer for swing movement (vision, sensor, equipment or combination type)
  • The primary purpose of swing movement analyzer is to analyze swing movement of a player and have different types & performance property. For high-performance analyzer, it reproduces after measuring the movement of a ball (space vector, rotation) and analyzing swing change.
