## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.2 — 2026-01-19

Ver 1.2 implemented:
Glass (blur) container for distance display
Clean separation between AR view and UI overlays
Corrected Auto Layout hierarchy for stable full-screen AR

### 1.1 — 2025-05-12

Version 1.1 builds upon the solid foundation of version 1.0 by adding a suite of powerful features to enhance usability, accuracy, and personalization for golfers. Here’s a detailed breakdown of what’s new and improved:

Slope Calculation:
New Feature: Added the ability to calculate and display the slope angle and percentage between the user and the target.
Impact: Helps golfers adjust their shots for elevation changes, improving accuracy on uneven terrain.
Implementation: A new slopeLabel displays the slope in degrees and percentage (e.g., "Slope: 5.2° (9.1%)").
Trajectory Path Visualization:
New Feature: Visualizes the shot trajectory with a parabolic path of yellow spheres from the user to the target.
Impact: Provides a visual aid to understand the shot path, especially useful for long distances.
Implementation: The addTrajectoryPath method creates a series of SCNSphere nodes to form the trajectory.
Personalized Shot Recommendations:
New Feature: Offers club and shot type recommendations based on distance, slope, user skill level, and wind speed.
Impact: Tailors advice to the golfer’s skill level and preferences, making shot planning more intuitive.
Implementation: A recommendationLabel displays suggestions like "Wedge, full swing" or "Driver, adjust for uphill".
User Customization:
New Feature: Added a settings view (SettingsViewController) where users can select their skill level (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced) and preferred clubs.
Impact: Allows the app to adapt recommendations to the user’s experience and equipment.
Implementation: Uses UIPickerView for skill level selection and a checklist for clubs, stored in UserDefaults.
Refined User Interface:
Enhancement: Split the single label from v1.0 into three dedicated labels: distanceLabel, slopeLabel, and recommendationLabel.
Impact: Improves readability and organization, making key information easier to access at a glance.
Implementation: Labels are styled with semi-transparent backgrounds and rounded corners, arranged vertically for clarity.
Wind Speed Integration:
New Feature: Allows users to input wind speed (in m/s) via the settings view, which adjusts the effective distance for shot recommendations.
Impact: Accounts for environmental factors, making recommendations more accurate in windy conditions.
Implementation: Wind speed adjusts the effective distance by 1% per m/s (e.g., a 5 m/s headwind increases effective distance by 5%).
Historical Measurements:
New Feature: Added the ability to save and review past measurements in a history view (HistoryViewController).
Impact: Lets users track their shots over time, useful for practice and analysis.
Implementation: Measurements are saved to UserDefaults with timestamps, and a table view displays them with a "Close" button to dismiss the view.
Restored Long-Distance Detection Reliability:
Fix: Restored the robust AR session setup from v1.0, including fallbacks for non-LiDAR and minimal configurations.
Impact: Ensures reliable long-distance detection, matching v1.0’s performance, by adapting to challenging conditions (e.g., sparse depth data).
Implementation: The setupARSession method now attempts LiDAR, non-LiDAR, and minimal configurations if needed.
Crosshair Consistency:
Fix: Initially modified in early v1.1 iterations, the crosshair was reverted to v1.0’s simple red rectangle (SCNPlane, 0.02x0.02).
Impact: Maintains the familiar and effective targeting aid from v1.0, ensuring accurate long-distance alignment.
Implementation: The renderer(_:updateAtTime:) method now consistently uses the red rectangle crosshair.
Usability Improvements:
Enhancement: Added a "Close" button to the history view for easy dismissal.
Impact: Improves user experience by making navigation more intuitive.
Implementation: A closeButton in HistoryViewController dismisses the modal view when tapped.
