Mevo and Mevo+ work with FocusBand, but not BodiTrak.
Mevo+ is a low power Doppler radar using phased antenna array technology to detect and track golf ball launch and flight.
It measures the speed of the ball, as well as the position of the ball as it progresses along its flight path.
Sophisticated mathematical estimators are used to track the ball even under adverse conditions, using the physics of ball flight to overcome random noise and fading conditions experienced in the real world.
The phased array technology also picks up tiny variations in the Doppler signals caused by the spinning motion of the ball, enabling direct measurement of the ball spin rate.
Mevo+’s low power Doppler radar uses phased antenna array technology to detect and track club swings.
It measures the speed of the club as well as its position along its curved path of motion.
Sophisticated mathematical methods are used to follow the club along its trajectory and determine important measures such as swing plane angle, attack angle, and path, apart from club speed at impact.
Mevo+’s phased array Doppler technology has four independent receivers picking up the tiny variations in the signals reflected from the spinning ball. These variations are measured and combined to provide the measured spin rate of the ball.
When used indoors with limited ball flight distance, it becomes harder to measure the spin rate because the ball may execute only a small number of rotations before being stopped by a screen or net. Therefore reflective stickers are needed to enhance the signal variations due to ball spin, making measurement possible.
