You can zoom in and out to see the contours and slope percentages, adjust the grid, view a spinning 3D animation, and even calculate your exact putt line (StrackaLine) by setting the hole location and your ball location. Just like a video game, but the information is real! Available for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod, using raw X, Y, Z data points, the device: ● Will calculate all the one inch contours of the putting green ● Will calculate the slope percentages for the whole putting green ● Will calculate the Fall Lines for each hole location ● Will show you the approach angle to the green ● Will calculate the target of your putt ● Will allow you to zoom in and out to see more or less detail With our state of the art technology, join us in revolutionizing the most important part of the golf, putting.

SwingCast is a Camera app ideal for perfecting your technique in swing based sports. While primarily designed for capturing the Golf swing, SwingCast also works well with other swing technique based sports with its ability to customize recording lengths, speeds, and iterations. Features of SwingCast include: - Synchronization between multiple iOS devices: Capture your swing from multiple camera angles simultaneously. - AI-powered Automatic Video Recording: Simply start your swing and SwingCast will automatically record it. Triggered by either motion detection (motion-start), face positioning (face-start), or voice commands (voice-start). - Voice Navigation: Utilize voice commands (in addition to manual controls) to navigate the app. This lets you stand away from the device while still controlling the app. - Video casting from one device to another device and/or onto a Google Chromecast. - Customizable instant playback and iterations settings. - Video Analysis: Side-by-Side and overlaid video comparison between any two videos. - Tools for video editing such as drawing and video cropping. SwingCast supports two different modes: Standalone Mode: In standalone mode, the user uses only one device to record and has the option of viewing the video by itself or comparing it side by side with an imported model swing video. The viewer can watch both options on either the device itself or a Google Chromecast. Linked Mode: Uses two devices with one set as the Main Device and the other set as the Extension Camera. In linked mode, you can take footage from both the Main Device and the Extension Camera and watch them side by side on one screen. Alternatively, you can opt to just take video from the Extension Camera and watch it by itself or compare it to a preset model swing (these options are especially useful for putting). Any videos taken in this mode will be displayed on the Main Device screen or casted to a Google Chromecast.
