GSA Advanced Golf Simulators: Cameras

When only the best will do, build your own golf simulator with any GSA Golf CX camera systems

Note that this feature is unique to only GSA Golf systems. No other golf simulators on the market can provide this.

With all other golf simulator systems on the market, the player is forced to take the manufacturer's word that the data captured is correct.

There is no way for the player to verify that their measurements are in anyway correct.

All CX and CTS camera systems run with all these golf course software versions

Note that all GSA Golf systems are completely modular - start with just 1 camera or sensor mat and add more cameras and features as and when requirement or budget allows.

CX2 detects ball launch angle, ball path, ball speed, fades, draws, hooks and slices

The CX2 can be setup as Vertical and Horizontal camera system or as a Stereoscopic system

All CX systems come with the option of 2 camera triggers : either an optical sensor trigger array or a line scan camera camera trigger

The CX3 can be setup as Vertical and Horizontal camera system or as a Stereoscopic system

CX3 cameras include : V Cam for ball Vertical launch - H Cam for Horizontal ball path with line scan camera trigger -

Note that camera club tracking systems require the supplied tracking dots or white strips to be applied to the clubs

you can also mount both ball tracking cameras on the ceiling instead of one on the ceiling and the other on the floor for

Advantages of camera systems compared to low priced optical sensor pads

Thinking of purchasing one of those low priced optical club tracking sensor pads on the market?

Here is a short list of the main disadvantages
Those low cost sensor pads on the market do not see the ball at all so cannot possible calculate any realistic ball flight.
All ball data from launch angle, speed and direction to ball spin are only - at best - estimated and are mostly way off.
In fact, the all important ball launch angle is just fixed from the loft angle of the club you or the system has selected and bares no relation to reality what so ever.
No matter if you strike the ball on the down swing or upswing - or even top the ball so that is just rolls along the ground - you'll always get a perfect launch angled shot.
You can even just kick the ball with your foot and you'll still get a perfect launch angle.
Likewise, realistic ball direction or ball speed cannot be obtained by just looking at the club direction and speed.
In addition - and in contrast to GSA Golf camera systems that provide photographic evidence of all data - there's no way for the user to verify any of the data produced
by these low cost optical pads.
You are forced to ether just take the manufacturer's word for it and/or believe a paid golf professionals endorsement who would probably say anything
if they are given enough money.
So buyer beware, low cost optical sensor pads are essentially just play station toys compared to true camera tracking systems.

Don't forget !

High-end software will require an adequate high-end gaming PC to run it all

Your average PC probably won't be up to scratch

Note that multiple camera systems will require a PC that is capable of running multiple cameras.

While most good gaming PCs can run at least 2 or even 4 cameras GSA Golf does not guarantee that your own PC

(i.e. not using our PCs) will be able to run all the cameras

The GSA Golf Control panel can be installed on multiple PC's and monitors so that you can view all data simultaneously
