Abstract

A portable inflatable golf studio including an arcuate shaped roof panel, first and second side panels, a floor panel, a front panel, a back panel, a projector screen, a projector, and a tracking system. The first and second side panels are positioned parallel from one another and are attached to the arcuate shaped roof panel, wherein one of the first and second side panels defines a cavity configured to receive a television monitor. The floor panel configured to connect the first and second side panels to one another. The front panel removable attached to the arcuate shaped roof panel and the first and second side panels. The back panel positioned parallel to the front panel and attached to the arcuate shaped roof panel and the first and second side panels. Each panel includes one or more of inflatable sections.

Claims (31)

1. A portable golf studio, comprising:

an inflatable structure having a plurality of inflatable panels defining an interior space;

a projector screen selectively coupled to a panel of the plurality of panels;

a projector configured to project an image onto the projector screen;

a tracking system;

a computer operatively coupled to the projector and the tracking system, the computer having a memory storing a software application, which when executed, causes the projector to project an image onto the projector screen associated with data collected by the tracking system;

at least one window formed in at least one inflatable panel of the plurality of inflatable panels, the at least one window including a detachable panel; and

a skylight cutout defined through a panel of the plurality of inflatable panels, the skylight cutout having a first layer formed from a translucent material and a second layer formed from a substantially opaque material, the second layer configured to be placed in a first position, where light is inhibited from passing through the skylight cutout, and a second, retracted position, where light is permitted to pass through the skylight cutout.

2. The portable golf studio according to claim 1 , further including a computer stand, the computer stand configured to support the computer thereon.

3. The portable golf studio according to claim 2 , wherein the computer stand is inflatable.
