System and method to identify impact locations
A golf club comprising a golf club head having a face wall, an inertial motion unit (IMU) positioned within the body, and a transceiver in communication with the IMU, a shaft attached to the golf club head, and a grip attached to the shaft is disclosed herein. The IMU identifies an impact location with a golf ball.
1. A system for identifying an impact location on a golf club, the system comprising:
a neural network;
a golf ball having an embedded circuitry for transmitting data;
a golf club comprising
a golf club head comprising a body, an inertial motion unit (IMU) positioned within the body, and a transceiver in communication with the IMU, and
a shaft attached to the golf club head;
wherein the impact location is determined based on an impact signature immediately after a golf club head impact with a golf ball;
wherein the IMU identifies an impact location with a golf ball;
wherein the IMU collects impact datasets from multiple impacts of the golf ball at multiple locations on the face;
wherein the collected impact location dataset is transmitted to the neural network;
wherein the neural network learns from the collected impact location dataset and then resolves impact location from any new dataset.
