SwingTalk is a device that provides comprehensive data on your swing when it is attached to the grip of a golf club. SwingTalk sensor provides a perfect wireless connection to your smartphone using Bluetooth. Users can view the trajectory of their swing in 3D, and key data such as swing tempo and club speed is provided through audio, allowing the user to concentrate on their golf rather than watching the screen. 1. Analyzes the swing motion and breaks it down into swing tempo and speed, club trajectory and speed, and other information when it is attached to the grip of a golf club. 2. Displays swing analysis on the smartphone which is also read by a synchronized voice. 3. Key analysis data is provided through audio, allowing the user to concentrate on his or her swing rather than watching the screen. By using the Bluetooth headset, the smartphone doesn't even need to be in immediate proximity of the user - it could be in a pocket or backpack. 4. The trajectory of the club and shaft is actually measured and displayed, allowing a thorough swing analysis as well as detailed information of the movement of the shaft and the timing of the release. This allows golfers to master casting, lagging, delayed hit and the other essential skills needed to reach a professional skill level. 5. The characteristics of the swing are determined among 9 types by analyzing key factors such as ball type and the trajectory of the club and the face angle. 6. The swing is analyzed by breaking into phases, such as address, backswing, backswing top, downswing, impact, and more. Famous golf instructors always highlight these phases as key points. 7. Users can save and load their swings with the Swingtalk Cloud feature, which can even be used to replay swings made in the past. It is possible to compare current swings with past ones in this way.
