3Trak
3Trak, the three-dimensional, high-speed photography simulator tracking system applied in the PGA TOUR Simulator is the most sophisticated and accurate tracking system available in a simulator today. Recognized by major club OEMs for its accuracy, robustness and versatility in measuring the golf ball at launch, the use of 3Trak in the PGA TOUR Simulator creates an entirely unrivaled simulator experience.
Time and again, customers play in the PGA TOUR Simulator and are amazed at its abililty to accurately replicate ball flight and mimic their true play. The 3Trak simulator tracking technology makes no assumptions or calculations...it simply measures ball performance -- on EVERY plane.
There are three dimensions of spin as it relates to ball movement. All three dimensions play a role in shot behavior and performance. No other system directly measures all three dimensions, including both spin and spin axis. For you, this direct measurement means you hit in the simulator how you hit on the course.
Not without their merits, other technologies can make reasonable approximations about shot performance and generate a simulation of ball flight. Only 3Trak, however, knows how your shot would have behaved had you been outdoors and precisely replicates it in the simulator. This accuracy is essential to improvement efforts and dramatically impacts enjoyability of play.
While it is true that you are still hitting the ball into the screen, the 3Trak simulator tracking technology has closed the gap on the indoor and outdoor golf experiences. A breakthrough from aboutGolf Labs, the R&D division of aboutGolf, 3Trak simulator tracking is a proprietary system implemented in 2008 and has provided only unyielding dynamic performance since.
