Putt Buddy

August 12, 2023

This update implements a boatload of huge, but mostly boring* updates, including: -A substantially improved method of handling previous sessions and statistics to increase efficiency and lower Putt Buddy's resource consumption -Tweaks some of the putting detection algorithms to improve accuracy -Thermal monitoring during Putting Sessions with warnings for serious and critical device temperatures, which can reduce or absolutely trash performance, respectively -Numerous bug fixes and minor improvements *Don't worry, this boring update sets the stage for a bunch of exciting new statistics and upcoming features! Thank you all for the support.

Introducing Quick Measure, a tool that combines the accuracy of a tape measure with the speed of walking it off! Have you ever been on the putting green and wondered whether or not you're inside Circle 1? Or maybe you sunk a huge putt and wished you could know EXACTLY how long it was to properly gloat to your friends? Silly questions, of course you have! With Quick Measure, you'll never have to wonder again. So get out there and brag about that 43.6 foot putt you sank in your solo practice round! Additional Changes: -Adds a step that corrects basket bounding box if 3D position is slightly off (big improvement) -Minor tweaks to putt tracking algorithm to reduce false positives -Miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements throughout -Adds a button to submit photos of baskets for training future versions of basket detector ML model

This update features a complete rewrite of the putt tracking algorithm that dramatically improves accuracy and consistency! Right away, you should notice: -Much smoother and more accurate trajectory lines -Far better performance in bright sunlight (the sun finally came out in the PNW, so now Putt Buddy knows what shadows are and how to avoid them) -Improved detection of chain outs and other misses that tend to fall straight down from the basket -More accurate and consistent velocity and miss calculations The new system also tracks a lot more parameters than previously and is highly extensible, so expect accuracy to continue to improve going forward thanks to your support!! Other bug fixes and improvements, including: -Fixed a bug that could cause a crash during saving -Fixed a bug that prevented "Never" Battery Saver option from working -Improvements to Battery Saver to further reduce power consumption during putting sessions -Adds a link to r/PuttBuddy in Settings for additional support options -Adds a link to Review Putt Buddy in Settings (if you're having issues, use r/PuttBuddy or Report a Problem so that I can fix the issue!) Thank you for your support, I can't wait to keep improving Putt Buddy!
