SwingModel
Developed by Dr. Ralph Mann, SwingModel is computer-overlaid composite of 150 different top Tour player swings, adjusted to fit the individual student’s body dimensions. It moves, or swings, along with the student, so that the student can see how he’s performing relative to the computerized Tour model during different positions in the swing. The system is based around the concept of building a personalized SwingModel for a student, then using the instructor’s teaching skills to move your swing toward that model.

GEARS GOLF
Gears is a full swing club and body tracking system used by PGA pros, club fitters and club manufacturers to measure and analyze every nuance of a swing, in full 3D, from address to follow-through. Built on the same technology used by biomechanists and filmmakers, Gears is the most advanced motion capture solution developed specifically for golf.
What is Optical 3D Motion Capture?
Gears is an optical (camera-based) tracking system, powered by eight 1.7 megapixel cameras running at 360 frames per second. It offers numerous advantages over other approaches, including:
- Track any club, with snap-on club mounts
- Measurements as fine as 0.2 mm
- No wires attached to the user
- Golf ball detection, for pinpoint impact location information
- Simple system setup
- ”Absolute positioning,” with zero drift (unlike inertial systems)
Optical 3D motion tracking provides the most accurate and in-depth analysis of movement for athletes of all sports and skill levels. This works by affixing small reflective markers at key joints and segments of the athlete, our cameras detect their location in 3D space and use that data to create an avatar for the athlete based on their unique size and measurements. Every movement is recorded at 360 frames per second…from every single angle.
Gears allows you to compare a user’s swing side-by-side with previously recorded data in fully rendered 3D—a powerful tool for measuring progress over time or comparing with proper techniques. Past and present data is synchronized during playback, for frame-by-frame comparison of key swing elements.
SAM PuttLab
SAM Puttlab is an analysis and training system based on accurate ultrasound measurements. It analyzes the 28 most important parameters of your putting stroke and displays the results in easy to understand graphic reports. Discover your individual strengths and weaknesses for a better and more efficient training.


K-Vest
K-Vest is an actual vest that you can wear that will allow our instructors to pinpoint problem areas of your swing. K-Vest is a must-have for today’s golf, fitness and medical professionals who want to improve golf performance and their bottom-line. K-Vest TPI 3D is the industry’s only all-in-one wireless system that captures a player’s “power signature,” 3D measurements and video instantaneously. Real-time visual and auditory feedback can then be used to improve movement patterns.
