  • SKyTrak TGC2019, Multi Screen Panorama Set Up

    Just in case anyone is curious about how to do this...

  • #2
    My setup: Skytrak connected to an HP Pavilion "gaming" rig.
    Enclosure is composed of netting hung from the ceiling and a central target mat. Image of the simulator was originally projected to a projection screen but I didn't care for the poor image quality. Decided to connect 2 55" 4K TCL TVs to the desktop computer. TVs hung from a ceiling mount (Kanto Ceiling Mount, 2 Displays) just to the right of hitting bay.
    I was able to use the included NVIDIA video card software to extend the image of TGC2019 to both tvs. I now have a panoramic view of the courses/range! It would be better with 3 tvs but I don't have the space. Unfortunately, 2 tvs cause the ball to be centered on the tv bezels, not ideal. However, in TGC2019, there is a setting that allows you to offset the ball location to the left or right. Perfect solution...
    Note, best to have two exact tvs. My tvs are the same but versions are slightly different which causes a slight color differential. Looks worse in the photo than it does in real life...
    I'll Tru to upload photos. Let me know if anyone needs help with the NVIDiA settings.

        Can you post a couple pics of TGC when playing a round? I am wondering if you could do this with two side by side projectors and then line the seam up between the two so that there was no line??

          I dont see why this wouldn't work using two projectors.
          Post photos if you complete this project...

            I can see 3 tvs or projectors being awesome. With the 2 screen setup you "lose" some of the extra view on the left side .

          3 would be ideal...so long as you have the space.👍
