Real-Time Golf Swing Analysis Through Your iPhone
(2 votes, average: 5.00 out of 5)
Loading ...If you’ve ever taken a golf swing lesson with video analysis, you understand what an excellent teaching tool golf video instruction can be. With the advent of increasingly sophisticated hardware and software being at our immediate disposal via smart phones, the technology is currently in place to record and analyze your golf swing with one single device.
The USD$5.99 iSwing golf iPhone application allows users to record their golf swing on video and replay it frame-by-frame in slow motion and analyze their flaws by drawing lines over their screen to make sure they’re “on-plane.” This swing analysis application is a simple and cost effective resource that will soon be available for the Android smart phone as well.
Created by mobile software company, Keuminotti, iSwing also creates sequence photos like Golf Digest centerfolds that can be used as a virtual reference, or that you can share with friends via Facebook Connect. The iSwing sells for only $5.99 and is offered for the iPhone 2G, 3G & 3GS.
After 8 months of research, development, and beta testing, the iSwing hit the App Store this August. Since its debut, the iSwing has already broken into the top 5 most downloaded apps in Japan Sports and stands currently at #1 in Korea Sports.
“The success we’ve seen in Asia is translating well to the US where golf can be an expensive pastime. Professional golf swing analysis can cost an average of $60 per visit. And for the price of a bucket of range balls, one can analyze their swing on a device they already carry in their pocket…”, says Charlie Keum, CEO and Founder ofiSwing.

3The SpectateSwamp Desktop Search does golf video too. After shooting 2 recent golf tournaments. We videoed 90+ golfers from 2 camcorders. So we had nearly 200 videos. A minor program change was made to catalogue the videos such that the short clips (4 to 12 seconds) played at regular speed then the final 3 seconds (the swing) play in slow motion. Rather than worry about just capturing the swing we could now start recording earlier than before and not to worry about anything other than shutting the recording off after each swing is complete. Within 10 minutes of leaving the course the videos are up and playing while the contestants were having their supper and awards etc. They love it.

4More video control with the on/off switch
While showing those golf video clips after the supper; a number of golfers wanted to see their swing. But at the time we couldn’t easily do that. They were just 2 video clips in among 180 or so. Now there is a SOLUTION.
By creating an extremely short video as each group approaches the Tee (maybe showing a whiteboard containing the flight# and player names?); the program will use that as a “group break point”. That will now allow for the golfer to indicate which group they were in from the tournament sheet and we can replay their video and those of the rest of the players in that group. It will also enable us to play the videos random by group. For the Barrel racing it will randomly replay the video group for each racer. For this event we shut the camcorder off and immediately switch it back on after the horse and rider round each barrel. Randomly playing just part of the run wouldn’t be the same.
