Foresight Sports, the maker of an optical launch monitor and golf simulation technology, reported it partnered with Sportsbox AI, the creator of single-camera markerless 3D motion capture on a mobile phone.
The companies will integrate Foresight’s launch monitors with Sportbox’s patented 3DGolf AI technology available to both golfers and instructors to collect data analytics, including golf swing analysis, club delivery and shot launch/flight outcomes.
“Foresight Sports is looking forward to working with the team at Sportsbox 3DGolf to deliver technology and analytics that drive performance applications throughout golf. The combination of body movement analytics captured in such a user-friendly platform with our industry-leading club and ball data capture should be a powerful toolset for teachers and students,” said Jon Watters, Foresight founder and co-president
Sportsbox AI founded a markerless 3D swing analysis app called Sportsbox 3DGolf using its patent-pending technology that creates 3D motion data and visualization for the golf swing from a video with no markers or sensors. Worldwide coaches currently use the tool to teach players, including LPGA and PGA Tour players. Its new product Sportsbox 3DPractice provides golfers at all play levels to benefit from data-driven practices with real-time feedback on each swing.
“The power of the data, combined with the teams of world-class experts in golf, biomechanics and sport science, and AI represented in our teams and advisors, will advance the entire industry forward in a generationally meaningful way,” said Jeehae Lee, Sportsbox 3DGolf founder and CEO.
The partnership will begin with Foresight Sports Launch Monitor integration into the Sportsbox AI Mobile application, Sportsbox 3DGolf, which will be available to all Sportsbox 3DGolf and Foresight users. Currently, in development, this first integrated product is scheduled for release in Q1 2023.
