DENVER, [June 19, 2024] – GOLFTEC, the world leader in golf improvement, is proud to announce that its groundbreaking motion-capture technology, OptiMotion, will be showcased by CBS Sports during the Travelers Championship this weekend at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Conn.
OptiMotion, powered by a proprietary AI model, is the wireless and sensorless motion-capture technology that measures 15 specific joint centers within the body and collects more than 4,000 data points in every swing, providing insights that allow GOLFTEC coaches to build easy-to-understand, practical improvement plans.
The technology can be used anywhere on the grounds during the Travelers, from on course to practice areas. With GOLFTEC’s digital library of more than 14 million golf swings, CBS analysts will deliver unparalleled insights, enhancing the viewer experience.
