Techtude offers three versions of the ProTee Golf Simulator in South Africa: 1) a sensorpack kit to build your own simulator, 2) a full-size turnkey system for professionals, and 3) an indoor driving range version. The ProTee simulator uses advanced sensors and graphics to provide users with an immersive indoor golfing experience where they can play virtual rounds on multiple courses while analyzing their swing data. Techtude has experience installing simulators and identifies the ProTee as one of the most widely used and advanced professional systems available.

1. “TECHNOLOGY WITH ATTITUDE”
THE ULTIMATE INDOOR GOLF
SIMULATION EXPERIENCE!

2. BACKGROUND
Techtude has built a reputation as South Africa’s leading simulator integrators holding agencies for
the Australian “HyperStimulator” Cockpit Race Car Simulator and the USA designed Apex SC830
Motion Simulator. Having completed a number of unique bespoke simulator installations in the South
African market, Techtude has identified the need for a quality, professional and cost effective Golf
Simulator to launch into the SA market. With much research and years of experience Techtude has
identified the Dutch designed and manufactured “ProTee Golf Simulator 2.0” as the most widely used
and installed professional golf simulator in the world. Techtude now offers the ProTee Golf Simulator
in three versions for the SA market, kit form to build your own, full size system for professional
installations or the driving range version.
PROTEE GOLF SIMULATOR 2.0
The ProTee Golf Simulator 2.0 is one of the most advanced a nd affordable 3D Golf Simulator
systems available on the market today. The Golf Simulator from ProTee has been uniquely
designed to experience the ultimate 3D Golf Simulation at an affordable price.
The Indoor Golf Simulator system allows you to use your own golf clubs (from driver to putter)
and play a complete round of golf. Or maybe just practice, working on that swi ng fault all in the
comfort of your own home or office. The views of the golf course can be either projected onto a
large screen set in front of the player or just viewed on your computer monitor set to the side.
Using your own clubs, you set up to hit the shot just as you would on a real course. The system
allows you to drive off the tee, hit fairway shots, pitch, chip and putt the ball int o the hole. After
every shot, the system automatically flies along the ball's trajectory to where the ball lies, ready
for the next shot.
Whether you are a pro or just a beginner, the investment in an Advanced Indoor Golf Simulator
will do more for your game than any of the latest space-age technology clubs you can buy. And
it's fun too.
Our advanced 3D Golf Simulator Game Software allows up to 4 players to play in one flight and
automatically keeps score for you. When you play against other ProTee Golf Simulator owners
over the internet, the system will handle up to 8 players in a single flight.
Apart from being great fun to use, the ProTee Golf Simulator is also a great teaching and
learning aid. If you want to improve your game and struggling with a swing fault, you will see
what causes the problem(s) -i.e. the clubface at impact to the ball. Even your pro can't see
what's really happening at the point of impact with a clubface travelling at over 160 Kph!

3. FEATURES
High accuracy modular sensor club mat
The professional sensor mat detects club-head speed to within 0.00085 kmh - , club-face angle
to within 0.001 degrees and club-head path to within 1.0 degrees.
Amazing views
Spectacular views of many 18 hole championship golf courses. The system uses a combination
of real high resolution 3D digitized photos and computer generated graphics with contoured
terrain and obstacle definition - balls bounce off trees, carts etc. and roll down hills - even into
water with a splash.
High
Performance graphics
The graphics system is a high resolution and high performance one (typically 70 frames per
second and 16.7 million brilliant colors) that allows the user to move in real-time around the
course. This is in strong contrast to all other systems that only show a static view. The graphics
system is actually like a continuous movie. e.g. If, at any time during the game you wan t to see
what lies behind a hill, you can simply navigate the virtual camera to go and have a look.
Course fly-overs and multiple simultaneous views are all standard features. The user can even
set the virtual view camera to be in the ball itself so that h e/she may fly with the ball along its
trajectory in real time.

4. Fly with the ball
After your shot the virtual 3D graphics camera will fly you along the ball's trajectory to where
the ball lies for the next shot. As opposed to other systems wh ere you have to wait for the new
view to be calculated, the graphic system is so fast it seems instantaneous.
Realistic ball flight trajectory, bounce and roll
Including hooks, slices, pushes, pulls, fades and draws or any combination thereof, i.e. pushed
hooks, pulled slices etc. plus wind factors (strength and direction) are also taken into account.
When chipping and putting, the ball will follow the contour of the surface and its path and speed
will be influenced accordingly. Also, the flight trajectories of missed shots are shown i.e. topped
or fat shots, skied and shanked etc. The flight trajectory calculation routines use proven
mathematical formulas that use all the parameters of the clubface at impact with the ball
together with the ball's initial flight angles and velocities.
At all times, a course overview window can be kept open showing the trajectory from a bird’s
eye view. The ball in this window flies in parallel with the normal ball.
Design your own golf courses
This unique feature allows you to integrate your own designed golf courses using our 3D
course editor. The surface texture maps, topographic height and light maps, surface
recognition, sky boxes and object maps are all fully integrated. The level of detail and realism is
only limited by your artistic abilities, imagination and time.
Ball image starts at the ball impact point on the screen in real time
When you hit the golf ball into a special projection screen, the screen will absorb it s energy and
it will fall to the floor. Its image, however, will continue on from the point of impact on the
projection screen in a continuous smooth flow. And it is this aspect of the software - together
with the field-of-view and perspective giving you the impression you are standing on the course
- that makes the simulator so life-like and differentiates it from normal PC golf game software.
You can aim at any target on the screen and if you hit an obstacle (ie a tree branch) the ball will
bounce off accordingly.

5. Swing Analysis
See why the ball flew the way it did. High speed optical sensors are built into the sensor mat to
capture all elements of the club face at impact with the ball and the ball's true direction and
speed. This data is shown graphically in pop-up windows after every shot. Data included:
 Club head speed at impact to the ball.
 Club face angle at impact (number of degrees open or closed) in relation to path angle.
 Club head angle of approach (hitting the ball on the down or up -stroke).
 Swing path in degrees (i.e. from out to in, in - out etc).
 Ball position on club-face at impact (vertical and horizontal distance from sweet spot on
club-face is captured).
 Effective club-face loft at impact. i.e. a 7 iron normally has 40° of l oft, but when the club
is held at anything other than 90° to the ball, the effective angle at impact will be
changed. Also, the club-face angle and hitting the ball on the upward or downward
stroke will affect the loft angle and thus the flight of the ball.
 Ball spin rates and directions are calculated from the captured club data at impact. Side
(or horizontal) spin as well as top (or vertical) spin rates are calculated and summed to
give a final spin rate and spin direction. The side spin causes the ball to curve left or
right depending on the direction of spin and the positive top spin will give extra lift and
distance. Negative top spin (caused by topping the ball) will, on the other hand, cause
the ball to dive.
 Ball launch path angle.
 Ball launch velocity.
