SIMULATOR SENSOR MAT

The Sports-Coach powered Golfotron simulator mat accurately measures both the club-head and the ball trajectory using the very latest in infra red sensor technology.

The sensors are continuously measuring for any break in the beams when the club is swung over the system. In fact, the system measures the swing path and the club face angle at impact to within 0.01 of a degree, along with the club tempo and the club head speed at the moment of impact. When the ball is struck, the system accurately measures the ball velocity to within 0.002 mph , so ensuring the most accurate ball velocity measurement in the golf industry.

By knowing the actual performance of each and every golf shot, true ball flight is possible. And by utilising the accurate measurements and knowing the distance required, the simulator automatically suggests a club to use. This can however easily be altered, if required, by simple means of club up and down.

True flight can easily be traced by knowing the actual club used and the actual performance. If you top or thin a shot, you then are only hitting part of the golf ball, resulting in a significantly reduced ball speed. That way, topped or thinned shot will run along the ground instead of through the air.

Reliability is a major advantage with the Sports-Coach Powered Golfotron simulator mat because only one comprehensive printed circuit board has been created as opposed to several circuit boards. The electronics are extremely well protected within the solid composite board and grassed mat so no connections can be damaged.

By accurately measuring the shot performance upon impact, the simulator mat eliminates the errors of other simulator technology. For instance, short chip shots cannot even be measured if the shot does not even reach the sensors themselves. It is the same thing with a lofted chip shot if you hit the ceiling, which again means the shot cannot be registered.

The simulator Mat comes standard with the Golf Range Program which includes a range screen and swing screen designed for flight analysis of golf shots, on a single image.
