GOLF GPS DEVICE WITH HOLE RECOGNITION AND HOLE SELECTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240024754 titled 'GOLF GPS DEVICE WITH HOLE RECOGNITION AND HOLE SELECTION
Simplified Explanation
The disclosed patent application describes a golf GPS device that can automatically switch between video and audio-only modes based on its attachment to a piece of clothing or hat. When attached, the device switches to audio-only mode, and when detached, it switches to video mode with or without audio. The device also includes processors that repeatedly determine the device's location on a golf course, compute the distance between the device and a feature of the determined hole, and display the hole number and computed distance on a screen.
- The patent application describes a golf GPS device with a sensor mechanism to switch between video and audio-only modes based on attachment or detachment.
- The device includes processors that determine the device's location on a golf course and compute the distance between the device and a feature of the determined hole.
- The determined hole number and computed distance are displayed on a screen.
Potential Applications:
- Golfers can use the device to easily track their location on a golf course and obtain accurate distance measurements to features of each hole.
- The video mode can provide visual information about the hole, such as hazards, while the audio-only mode can provide spoken instructions or commentary.
Problems Solved:
- The device eliminates the need for manual switching between video and audio-only modes, providing convenience to golfers.
- It solves the problem of accurately determining the device's location on a golf course and calculating distances to features of each hole.
Benefits:
- The device simplifies the user experience by automatically switching modes based on attachment or detachment.
- Golfers can make more informed decisions by having access to visual and audio information about each hole.
- Accurate distance measurements help golfers improve their game and make more strategic shots.
Original Abstract Submitted
the disclosure herein provides a golf gps device with a sensor mechanism to automatically switch between video and audio only modes of the device. more particularly, when a player attaches the golf gps device to a piece of clothing or hat, the device automatically switches to audio-only mode. when the player detaches the golf gps device, the device automatically switches to video mode, with or without audio. the golf gps device further includes one or more processors configured to repeatedly determine in which one of the plurality of holes the device is located, to repeatedly compute a distance between the device and a feature of the determined hole, and to cause to display the hole number of the determined hole and the computed distance on the display screen.
