Embodiment Construction
[0032]Embodiments of the invention provide for a golf ball tracking system that is capable of tracking multiple balls simultaneously using Radio Frequency (RF) technology of an Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) transmitter / receiver embedded in the center of a smart golf ball that would ping, in all directions, to external receivers that could then use Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) techniques to locate the 3D position of the smart golf ball throughout its flight.
[0033]In further illustration, FIG. 1 pictorially shows a process for golf ball tracking. As can be seen, smart golf balls are equipped with RF transmitters, such as UWB transmitters. Beacons are set up throughout the golf course or driving range as RF receivers. After the smart golf ball is hit, TDOA techniques are then utilized to locate the 3D position of the smart golf ball throughout its flight. Both ends of the UWB TDOA system (ball electronics and beacon electronics) may operate in both receive and transmit modes. The 3D posit...
