How does a golf simulator work

Golf simulators utilize advanced technology to provide a realistic and immersive golf experience indoors. Here's an overview of how they work:

Data Collection and Analysis: Sensors embedded in the hitting mat or club measure the clubhead speed, ball speed, launch angle, and spin rate.
Ball Trajectory Calculation: A software algorithm calculates the ball's trajectory based on the data collected and physics equations.
Virtual Course Environment: High-definition screens or projectors display a virtual course simulated using aerial photography or computer-generated graphics.
Visual Feedback: The simulator creates realistic visuals that replicate the look and feel of actual golf courses, including greens, bunkers, and hazards.
Environmental Control: Some simulators allow for adjustable settings such as wind speed, humidity, and lighting, further enhancing the realism.
Game Simulation: The software simulates the rules and scoring of real golf, allowing players to compete against themselves or others.
