Golf Analysis

3D analysis is used for evaluating sports performance especially those actions that involve rotations: non more so than in the golf swing. Its advantage over 2D analysis is that it enables the measurement of important technique factors such as the amount of rotation and the 'X' factor. In addition the true path of the club head can be defined.

This type of analysis is normally restricted to research institutes and sport science departments and more often than not takes place indoors. However 3D video analysis is ideal for capturing in competition and in training performances. BetterTrained has been doing this level of analysis for a number of years and has experience in capturing a number of different sports in many environments. The off the tee' service is exactly that, filming is done when you are on the course or at the driving range. Being outdoors, seeing the fairway in front of you, feeling the elements are all going to ensure that your actual swing technique is captured for analysis.

With 3D analysis, video from two or more cameras is required. This in itself provides an excellent additional means of performance feedback.

Simultanously view swing from front, side and rotatable stick figures

The service is primarily aimed at those golfers who wish to further investigate swing technique in order to improve their handicap or professional ranking. The analysis can be used to detect subtle differences like those that may be apparent between different irons or between irons and drivers. During the feedback session one can view playback of video images simultaneously with rotable stick figures and graphical data.

Key instances in the numerical data can then be directly related to body position during the swing.
