Abstract
An alignment system is configured to measure the orientation of a golf ball relative to a target point based on the positioning of an alignment aid on the golf ball with respect to a target point. The alignment system has a camera configured to capture at least one image of a golf ball placed at a placement position on a surface. The alignment system also has a computing system having at least one processing unit and memory storing instructions configured to be executed by the at least one processing unit to determine an aimed direction based on an orientation of the alignment aid in the at least one image, calculate an alignment value based on the aimed direction, and provide the alignment value to a user interface.
