FlightScope, a golf industry leader in tracking and analyzing sports performance data, is partnering with the Acushnet Company’s Titleist brand to integrate the company’s Radar Tracking Technology (RCT) to improve the accuracy and performance of its Mevo+ and X3 launch monitors in indoor environments.
Titleist golf balls with Radar Capture Technology, according to FlightScope, are designed to enhance the data capture of launch conditions indoors and deliver the most accurate information possible. The company says FlightScope Mevo+ and X3 each have been validated with RCT in an indoor environment. The following Titleist golf balls are offered with Radar Capture Technology: Pro V1, Pro V1x, Pro V1x Left Dash and AVX models.
The company says Radar Capture Technology allows for the capture of highly accurate spin data, providing more accurate measurements in indoor environments.
“The integration of Titleist RCT golf balls to the technology offered with the FlightScope Mevo+ and FlightScope X3 performance data technology is a big step forward for golfers using our units indoors,” said Henri Johnson, Founder and CEO of FlightScope. “Our goal has always been to make accurate products that not only offer all the data to help golfers improve their games, but also to make FlightScope units user-friendly and easy to operate. We’re confident that we have enhanced the user experience with FlightScope products thanks to this partnership with Titleist.”
Johnson said Radar Capture Technology golf balls feature embedded radar reflective technology, developed over the past three years by Titleist Golf Ball R&D engineers. An internal radar reflective marker delivers optimized signal capture, delivering true spin versus estimates in current indoor settings. The embedded radar reflective technology does not require applying aluminium stickers to capture precise data from an indoor simulator environment.
“Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x RCT golf balls combine the game’s greatest combination of speed, spin and feel with updated technology from FlightScope Mevo+ and X3 that more consistently captures precision performance and golf ball data when used in an indoor setting,” said Jeremy Stone, Vice President, Titleist Golf Ball Marketing. “Working with the FlightScope team, the result of months of testing has shown a reliably strong ‘signal’ that enables greater spin capture that leads to improved accuracy across ball data metrics.”
