Golf swing posture correction apparatus and method of correcting golf swing posture
View Patent ↗A golf swing posture correction apparatus and method therefor are provided. Provided is the golf swing posture correction system apparatus capable of detecting movement of an anchored leg in a golf swing and notifying a user, thereby correcting a golf swing posture. The anchored leg is a left leg for a right-handed person and a right leg for a left-handed person. The golf swing posture correction apparatus detects the movement of the anchored leg, and processes a detected signal, thereby generating sound via a speaker or vibration.
1. A method of correcting a golf swing posture according to a movement of an anchored leg in a golf swing, the method comprising:
detecting rotary movement of the anchored leg in the golf swing to output a rotary movement signal;
detecting one of vertical and horizontal movement of the anchored leg in the golf swing to output a linear movement signal;
receiving the rotary movement and linear movement signals, and determining that the anchored leg has moved if an amplitude of the rotary movement signal is greater than that of a predetermined reference signal and also if an amplitude of the linear movement signal is greater than that of the predetermined reference signal; and
notifying a golfer of the movement of the anchored leg via a notification signal, if the movement of the anchored leg has occurred.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the notification signal is at least one of a bell sound and vibration.
