A golf simulator launch monitor is a device that tracks and measures key data when a golfer hits a ball, such as ball speed, launch angle, spin rate, and distance. It uses technologies like radar, high-speed cameras, or infrared sensors to capture these measurements with precision. When connected to golf simulator software, it recreates the ball’s flight and shot outcome on a virtual course or driving range. Golfers use launch monitors to practice, improve their swing, fit equipment, and play simulated rounds indoors.
