Problem

Most golf club manufacturers do not have access to the expensive equipment and expertise required to measure a golf club’s performance and behavior during a golf swing.

Approach

AeroTech developed techniques and algorithms that can measure a clubs deflection and twist when it is swung. AeroTech has also developed a technique to measure the club’s head speed throughout the swing. This techniques requires simple off the shelf sensors.

Results

Algorithms were created and proof of concept tests were completed using the Portable Autonomous Measurement System (PAMMS).

AeroTech Contributions
