CP 10.0.8.4

Club face issue when using top edge strips with irons now resolved

Club face angle detection scan is now done from behind the ball with irons when using top edge white strips to prevent the issue shown in the below image from occurring

March 17 3:40 pm

CP 10.0.8.3

New 1: New center ball in image button

New 2: Color cameras can now run at 1500 fps as long as "Auto center ball ROI" is OFF.

In this case, the user will have to manually aim the cameras to point at the ball in the regular camera image (i.e. not in full ball frame mode)

and ensure the ball appears in the exact center of the image.

In addition, the ball will have to be placed on the mat in the exact same position for every shot.

As such, this is not recommended.

New 3:

Known club face issue when using top edge strips with irons

:

To prevent the above error occuring,

I'll be switching the scan direction from in front of the club to behind the club when using top edge white strips later this week


March 16 3:40 pm

CP 10.0.8.2

New: helpfull hints, warnings and highlights when setting up and aiming cameras

March 16 9:00 am

Fix: Selected club in game software (E6, GSpro, TGC, RedChain GSA, CG etc) not being displayed in CP when cameras running

CP 10.0.8.1


March 15 2:00 pm

Coming this weekend: System conversion instructions and kits

Got an SCX and want to convert to an LX2 or vice versa?

Got an LX2 or SCX and want to convert to an EVi?

Kits available from around $300 - consisting of replacement lenses, cables and lighting

Instructions include a parts shopping list and where to purchase them.

March 15 1:20 pm

CP 10.0.7.9

New 1: new customer camera registrations

BTW over 1,000 VisTrak systems have now been sold

New 2: SCX stereo calibration tables are now automatically updated if found to be out dated

New 3: SCX new warning message to warn users not to attempt camera aiming when not in show full ball frame mode and system is in video stream mode

This has been done because so many new users are not switching to full ball frame mode while aiming cameras.

In such a case, ROI ball centering won't work and the system will be unplayable.

New 4:

Improved club face angle detection that helps prevent club hosel and reflections on club toe to be detected as part of the club face

New 5: LX2 new top camera lighting to improve light spread over the club and ball.

The above 2 images were captured today using the new LX2 IR LED lighting.

New 6: Many more new updates to the Issues and Fault Finding page

Examples:

 

21. Balls go to the left or right even though I hit straight shots with an SCX

Probable cause

Cameras are out of alignment

Check camera alignment as shown below using 2 balls placed directly in-line with each other

Aim and rotate each camera until you see that the 2 balls

are pointing directly forwards towards the screen and in-line with each other.

Note that the balls don't have to appear exactly on the center line. Just relatively near is sufficient

The ROI ball centering will automatically do this for you.

22. Ball vertical launch angles are too low with my SCX

Probable cause

The stereo calibration tables haven't been initialized to their default values.

To fix

Download and install the latest CP update if using a CP version lower than 10.0.7.9

and right click on the Defaults button in camera 1 panel

 


March 14 6:45 pm

CP 10.0.7.8

New 1: new customer camera registrations

New 2: SCX stereo calibration tables are set to default values when right clicking on the Defaults button in the camera panel

New 3: The message "Warning: Stereo Scale doesn't appear to be correct" has been removed as I'm getting too many complaints about it.

From now on, if the user's scaling is incorrect, then it's incorrect and the user will be spared from seeing any annoying warning messages about it.

It is thus up to the user to click on the "Set Scale" during the initial system setup.


March 13 10:45 am

CP 10.0.7.6

Frame rate 1500 fps option re-enabled for non color cameras

It turns out that the ROI issue with frame rate 1500 is only occuring with color cameras

It's unsure yet when - or even if - this ROI issue with color cameras can be resolved

Until then, color cameras can only run at 800 fps


March 12 7:30 pm

New: Low priced VisTrak LX1

Measured Data captured:

Balll speed, Ball Vertical Launch angle, Ball Spin

Calculated/Estimated Data captured:

Club face angle, club path, club speed and Ball Path

Price $999

System can also be ceiling mounted to function like a VisTrak Eagle


March 12 10:00 am

CP 10.0.7.5

New 1: Frame rate 1500 fps option temporarily disabled due to it causing an ROI error in camera 2

Fix will come later this week

New 2: Max Min Ball Size reduced to 40 pixels

New 3: Ability to view GS (grey scale) levels and co-ordinates in the spin video box

Fix: False ROI out of range error messages being shown


March 10 3:40 pm

CP 10.0.7.4

New: Top Edge white strip mounting for irons

If hitting irons on the down swing or you have mounted the cameras behind the player, the club face will be out of view.

This problem is solved by placing the club marking on the top edge of the club (like the Uneekor systems do).

However, the measured face angle from the top strip has to be adjusted to get back to the leading club face angle.

The above image shows the default adjustments required for each iron club.

You can change the amount of top face edge angle to leading edge angle adjustment for each club.


March 9 5:38 pm

CP 10.0.7.3

Fix: False ROI error message being displayed

March 9 9:38 am

CP 10.0.7.2

New 1: Customer request: Ability to calculate spin from camera 2 instead of camera 1 with SCX system (Set in camera panel, bottom right)

New 2: Smaller cosmetic updates

New 3: New club detection examples in the club detection setup page.

March 8 4:28 pm

Lots more updates to the Issues and fault finding page


March 7 12:18 pm

New LX2 top view IR LED lighting

The new LX2 top view lighting vastly improves club face angle detection

-

You won't see club video playback images like the above on any other floor mounted launch monitor no matter what the price is.

March 7 8:51 am

CP 10.0.7.1

Fix: Chips not always being detected


March 6 3:25 pm

CP 10.0.7.0

Fix: EVi Vcam camera not always detecting ball

New: You can now click a button to get the current club face angle in the current frame.


March 5 5:28 pm

CP 10.0.6.8

New 1. The minimized window reposition instructions are now shown more clearly

I did this because many loose site of the minimized CP and don't now how to restore it to its default position

New 2. The minimum max ball size setting is now 70 px

This is done due to pitching wedges getting under the ball and causing the measured ball size to exceed the max ball size

and thus the shot is either not be recognized or erroneous results are produced.


March 5 1:13 pm

CP 10.0.6.7

New: ROI Ball out of range error message

As of this version, if any camera is not aimed correctly so that the ball appears near the center of the full ball frame,

then a "Ball out of range" error message will be displayed and the system will stay in "Looking for ball in Launch Zone" mode.

When aiming the cameras in full ball frame mode and video stream mode is on,

a real time "Ball out of range" error message will be displayed if the ball is detected but not close enough to the center.


March 4 5:53 pm

Coming later this week: System Check Procedure

The System Check will run through a number of tests to ensure that the system is setup correctly

and that basic setup errors - like the one shown below here - are pointed out to the user before they resort to

lengthy and time consuming email support correspondence.

The above image (from a customer support session) shows how off the camera aiming is.

The system won't function with camera aiming this far off.

March 4 9:26 am

CP 10.0.6.5

Fix: Ball not being detected in camera 2 when clicking on frame image or loading frame for the first time


March 3 4:06 pm

New entry in the Issues and fault finding page

5.2 The system doesn't detect small tap-in putts.

Probably causes

1. The ball wasn't detected leaving the launch zone area.

2. The ball didn't attain the minimum ball speed for a putt or shot

Even though the system maybe in "Putting Mode" so that the camera frame rate is reduced,

this reduction in frame rate may still not be sufficient to see the ball leaving the launch zone area.

A solution would be to place the ball very close to the forward edge of the launch zone area when attempting a tap-in putt.

Generally speaking - and to the best of our knowledge - no overhead camera tracking system can detect a 4 inch or so tap-in putt.

(and certainly no radar system can - which at the best of times can't even detect a regular putt let alone a tap in putt)

Reason is because no system can differentiate between the player intentionally playing (i.e. tapping) the ball

and not just repositioning the ball on the mat with a club or foot if the ball is not seen to have left the launch zone area.

March 3 9:45 am

LX2 gets additional upper lighting bank, on/off switch and USB ports

March 3 8:45 am

How the Floor GS (Grey Scale) setting effects the brightness/contrast setting.

If your lighting is insufficient to illuminate the ball so that it is detected when using fast shutter speeds,

you will have to increase the Brightness/Contrast level.

In so doing, you may find that only the center of the ball is showing an increase in brightness.

This is because the brightness procedure is only increasing the brightness of pixels that have a GS above the floor GS level.

The idea is to only increase the brightness of the ball itself and not the surrounding floor so that a stronger contrast is made between the ball and the floor.

It is thus important that the Floor GS setting is set closer to the actual floor gray scale in order to increase the brightness of the complete ball.


March 2 2:36 pm

CP V 10.0.6.4

Fix: Occasional false error message being shown in camera panel stating:

"Error: Floor GS setting of - is lower than dark trigger pixel. System won't function"

Line Drawing

New: Line Drawing for Club and Ball data verification including AOA.

Users can now draw lines on the shot ball and club images to measure any angles and distances.

Right click to start the line, move mouse cursor over end position and right again to set the line end

Line drawing functions in both the video and camera panels


March 1 3:00 pm

CP V 10.0.6.2

Fix 1: Laser settings not being stored

Fix 2: Some Laser settings being ignored


February 25 1212 pm

CP V 10.0.6.0

New: Improved VLA detection for EVi systems.

Fix: Ball calculated from Vcam option for SCX systems now removed (i.e. an SCX doesn't have a Vcam)

New: simplified Setup panel

New: Full system download

Use the above download to install the full version Control Panel with sample shot videos

for first time installations on new PCs or for those that would like to run a fresh new installation.

Note that the download is only licensed for cameras that have been previously registered.


February 23 8:30 am

More about Lenses and color cameras

Results of color camera VS mono camera comparisons with exposure time set to just 100 us.

1. Of interest was the apparent increase in image brightness when using a color camera compared to a monochrome camera

2. A better (less grainy) method of converting a color camera to mono is to switch the Monochrome Mode on in the Huateng App in the color cameras Color Process

Then set the new "Set Color Cams to Mono cams" option ON in the System Setup panel.


February 22 1:02 pm

CP V 10.0.5.7

Numerous smaller updates, malfunction warning messages and new customer camera registrations.


February 20 4:09 pm

VisTrak LX2 comparisons

While finishing off the new LX2 Compact assembly methods and features today, I thought I'd check out what the competition to this product would be.

Starting off with the Uneekor Mini (with a list price of a whopping $4,500) I viewed the review videos.

Expecting to see really nice shot video playbacks of the club making contact with the ball from the top camera showing club face angle and path,

I was shocked to see that no such video playback of the club face angle at impact to the ball or path is anywhere to be seen or featured in the videos.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but I'm astonished why people are raving about a system that costs over double the price of the LX2 ($2,299)

that doesn't even capture club face angle and path shot videos from a top camera.

February 20 1:35 pm

CP V 10.0.5.6

Fix: Error in yesterday's valid shot check function causing putts and chips to not be recognized


February 18 6:08 pm

Coming this week:

free GSA Golf Control Panel (CP) evaluation software downloads

Downloads include free 18 hole golf game software and sample shot videos for the CP ball and club tracking evaluation.

The CP download functions with E6, GS pro, TGC and CG game software for evaluation and testing.

February 18 12:42 am

CP V 10.0.5.4

New: Improved valid shot check

to prevent inadvertent ball launches when bending down to place the ball on the mat.


February 17 5:22 pm

Coming tomorrow: Improved valid shot check

to prevent inadvertent ball launches when bending down to place the ball on the mat.

Do not use soccer balls!

The system requires the ball to be predominately white and balls with large black soccer markings on them

cause the system to either not detect the ball at all or the ball is detected as too small.

February 17 1:45 pm

CP V 10.0.5.2

New: Virtual spin dots for testers - now showing dot positions on circumference plane and ball graphic side view

Virtual spin dots are used to test the spin detection method.

Press the V key on your keyboard to go to Virtual Dot Mode

Use arrow keys to move dots around on the ball

The dots can be moved around anywhere on the ball image and the resulting back and side spin rates - based on their co-ordinates - will be automatically shown.


February 15 1:40 pm

CP V 10.0.5.0

New 1: Ball spin detection improved

New 2: New customer camera registrations

New case for the LX2 coming next week


February 14 11:46 am

Business news :

GSA Golf VisTrak systems going full commercial retail

VisTrak prices to increase by 33% later this year

Well, I guess it had to happen sooner or later.

i.e. if you can't beat em, join em.

Selling direct wholesale to customers is all very well and good but - it doing so - we don't get to reap the benefit of resellers advertising and pushing our products.

Consumers are very influenced by product advertising and exposure, so just selling direct, GSA Golf can't compete on this advertising and exposure front at that level.

At least, not without investing large sums in advertising.

So, while the decision to go commercial retail hurts me, I see no alternative if GSA Golf is to compete in this very competitive market.

In order to give resellers a decent incentive to advertise and push the GSA Golf VisTrak range, a significant markup (i.e. from 33% to 40% ) will have to be offered.

As such, all VisTrak launch monitor system prices will soon (this year) be significantly increased to allow for reseller markups.

February 12 2:25 pm

"Ball Spin Detection Theory" page updated.

 


February 9 6:35 pm

Coming over the next few days and weeks:

An in-depth analysis of the complexities and methods of detecting ball back and side spin

from an overhead mounted stereo camera system like the SCX

Using real customer shot videos,

all frames showing back and side spin rotation from the flying ball's spin dot patterns or ball logos on the ball will be in-depth analyzed and results shown.

February 9 4:50 pm

Even More about Lenses and IR light testing

As I was so impressed with the test purchase of the Computar M1214-MP2 C-Mount lens at the beginning of this week,

I went ahead and purchased a batch of 10 of these lenses for $1,390.

After all, what can go wrong eh?

Well, as it turns out, plenty can go wrong, as the new batch of the same lenses are not the same as the initial test lens purchased.

Probably the supplier of the lenses had an older model of the same lens in stock with the initial purchase and the newer lenses have changed.

While the newer lenses still have a produce an increase in brightness compared to the standard Marshall lenses,

it is not quite as much and focusing with IR light is not anywhere near as good.

Looks to me like the newer lenses have a coating on them that is meant more for visible light than IR light.


CP V 10.0.4.8

1. Accentuated valid ball spin dots

2. More tolerance with ball size checking

3. Possible issue with camera alignment fixed

4. A number of smaller cosmetic issues fixed

Next CP update with improved ball spin detection due this weekend


February 7 5:18 pm

V 10.0.4.7

Fix 1: Ball not being detected in launch zone when using the single camera VisTrak Eagle system

New 1. New customer camera registrations

New 2. When switching on "Show Carry" the displayed carry is now shown as "Estimated Carry" as the CP can't know what the course conditions are or what the terrain is in the game software.

New 3. Extended Ball detection now default OFF with EVi systems (too time consuming)

New 4. Min ball size reduced to 25 pixels for customers mounting the cameras higher than 9 ft

New 5. The incorrect Scaling warning is now shown in all frames that contain a ball image and which appears to be too large or too small.


February 6 4:05 pm

Improvements to the installation, calibration and fault finding pages

Next CP update due tomorrow


February 5 4:24 pm

They new Computar Lenses (that produce a significant increase in image brightness) are now being offered with all VisTrak systems now

Computar M1214-MP2 C-Mount 12mm Fixed Lens.

IR light testing

On second thoughts - and as the tests yesterday were so good with our standard 24 LED IR lights -

I don't think I will take the risk of purchasing this $659 IR Illuminator that is 10 times the price of our regular 24 LED IR illuminator.

Main reason: It's not made in China.

And if it's not made in China, then the price is usually 2 to 10 times the price for the same equivalent product made in the USA or in the EU.


February 4 1:50 pm

Even More Lens and IR light testing

-

-

Of course, adding more IR lights also improves image brightness.

Just adding 1 more CM Vision 24 LED IR light or 2 smaller satellite 12 LED IR lights makes a big of difference

Thus, all SCX IR systems will now include 2 smaller 12 LED IR satellite lights.

February 4 12:30 pm

More Lens and IR light testing

The above images were captured using only the standard IR lighting (3 x CM Vision 24 850nm) at a distance of 8ft but with the new Computar M1214 lens.

All in all, not that bad. Especially considering the low cost of these CM Vision IR lights.

Never-the-less, I will be purchasing the $659 10 degree Illuminar IR lights just to see if there's any substantial improvement.

Thus, the SCX IR will only be fitted with these lenses from now on.

More Lens comparisons

The new Computar lenses have arrived

Bloody hell! I stand corrected.

My yesterday's skepticism about the new Computar Lens not being as good as the old lens has proven me wrong.

They really are better.

So what does this mean?

Essentially it means that we can either reduce the exposure time down to 150 micro-seconds and thus eliminate motion blur

or

reduce the amount of lighting while leaving the exposure time at the standard 300 micro-seconds.

Note that the above images were only using 2 LED spot lights.

Either way, this is good.

On the negative side, these lenses cost $100 more than the regular Marshall or HT lenses, so these new lenses will be an optional extra for those that want them.

For those that would like to source their own new Computar lenses, search for:

January 20 5:06 pm

V 10.0.4.1

Fix 1: Sporadic incorrect ROI

I've been looking to fix this issue for ages now. I could finally reproduce the issue today and find the cause.

Quite a number have pointed out this issue to me, so I'm very pleased to have this fixed now.

Known issues:

Camera alignment setup still a bit finicky and SCX ramp calibration not yet completed.

Even after a good 9 hours of coding and testing today.

Fix should come tomorrow or on Monday.

While I like the ball rolling down a ramp method, there's a bit of drawback to it. Namely: the ball is accelerating.

This means the precision is good as it starts the roll down the ramp but quickly deteriorates as the ball roll picks up speed.

I'm thus testing a method that has the ball fixed on the ramp (with Velcro) at various evenly spaced distances or use a tilted card with pre-printed balls or squares on it.

Also coming up this next week:

January 16 3:00 pm

Is checkered board calibration real calibration?

-

In my opinion not. Just laying a checkered board flat on the floor (like others do) is only useful for camera alignment and possibly scaling.

Real calibration would require that the board be tilted up at a multitude of angles and multiple readings be taken.

Without that, the cameras would have to be mounted at designated and limited height.

The (up and coming) new SCX ramp calibration method allows the user to mount the cameras at any height and space the stereo cameras at any distance.

i.e. no matter what height the cameras are mounted at or what spacing the cameras have, the calibration will ensure a perfect match for accurate readings.

January 13 4:40 pm

Recent customer comments

Hi Martin, I just wanted to drop you a note to say how amazing the new VisTrak camera is.

I am still playing around with the settings and learning but the video capture and being able to see the frame by frame impact is awesome!

I also really like the way you show the ball ready/playback buttons as an overlay on the TGC.

The best part of my day is going to the tech page and seeing your latest updates - keep up the good work!

Richard L. Illinois 12/17/2020

Hi Martin- I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your efforts.

I could have bought any of the expensive and well-known golf simulators, but I’m glad I ultimately took the chance and bought your products.

It wasn’t an easy decision, as it takes a leap of faith to take the road less traveled, but it has made all the difference.

I love that your products are not perfect (no one's are) but that you strive for perfection while pushing innovation.

You’re clearly never satisfied. As soon as you develop a new software feature, or build a new camera system, you're immediately back at it working on the next iteration.

You’re a true inventor and engineer. Almost every day I download the latest beta and see how it enhances the simulation.

It's like Christmas morning everyday.

Sometimes there’s a marked improvement. Sometimes the new feature “breaks” something else.

But over days and weeks, I feel how the collective innovations are improving the overall experience.

Your products aren’t for everyone but they are a clear alternative to the high-margin corporate products that have an arm's length association with their user base.

Buying a GSA product is buying into you and becoming part of your user community.

You listen, you care, and you explore. I know many of us appreciate it but perhaps not enough of us say thanks.

Martin, thank you for an enjoyable and rewarding journey with your products in 2020.

You’ve made a COVID 19 year more endurable.

Thanks Martin……..

I appreciate the excellent customer service and fair pricing! And the very informative website!

Note that all GSA Golf software is written in the C++ programming language, which isn't particularly easy.

As they say, while it's easy to shoot yourself in the foot with the standard C language,

you can blow your whole leg off in C++. : )
