    New product from Foresight at the PGA show. Camera that sits above the ball and measures 30 cm before and after impact and projects the data on the floor and or on the screen.

      If you could integrate that with a Quad/GC3 that would be a fantastic add to my sim. I would be all over that assuming it is not priced out of reach. What great feedback.

          It’s not actually a foresight product - it just integrates with GCQuad and GC3 to pull in the ball information. It’s made by a company called AMPLUS and uses an overhead camera that is part of the unit to record the club face, club path, strike location, etc. information it projects onto the mat. As preludesam said it’s $15k so it’s a pretty steep price to pay if you already have a LM recording most of the same data.

              I'm looking at this and saying that kind of cool but then I think about all the other software glitches and lack of updates and progress and my spidey sense says no chance I would even consider buying this.

                What does this do in addition to the GCQ besides project the image on the floor? There's a little visual of the club path that looks kind of useful but it's not new information if you can visualise what the Quad is already telling you.

                  Just got the marketing email. $10,995 + $2,000 installation(required) so basically $13k all in. I like the idea/coolness factor but as other have stated, seems pretty steep for what is essentially a graphic representation on your hitting mat of data and visuals you already have in the FSX software and is accessible on your monitor.

                    This looks cool, but not for $13k. That is insane. I have a GC Quad. It's great. It would be even better if those (4) cameras could also produce an impact image like other "less expensive" units are capable of doing. If this was $1-2k, as an "add on" to give you that path visual information and an impact picture, people would buy it. For $13k there likely won't be many "takers."
