HIT POSITION ESTIMATION DEVICE AND HIT POSITION ESTIMATION METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18446770 titled 'HIT POSITION ESTIMATION DEVICE AND HIT POSITION ESTIMATION METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a device that estimates the position where a golf ball hits the head of a golf club. This device includes a sensor attached to the shaft of the club, which detects twisting of the shaft when the ball hits the head. A calculation unit then uses the sensor signal to estimate the position of impact.
- The device includes a sensor that detects twisting of the golf club shaft when the ball hits the head.
- A calculation unit is used to estimate the position where the ball hits the head based on the sensor signal.
- The device provides a more accurate estimation of the impact position on the golf club head.
- This estimation can be useful for analyzing and improving golf swing techniques.
- The device can be easily attached to any golf club shaft.
- The sensor signal provides real-time feedback on the impact position, allowing for immediate adjustments during practice or play.
Original Abstract Submitted
A hit position estimation device includes a sensor and a calculation unit. The sensor is attached to a shaft of a golf club and outputs a sensor signal including twisting of the shaft. The calculation unit estimates a position at which a ball hits a head from a twist component when the ball hits the head of the golf club, by using the sensor signal.
