VRotein will participate in the Gyeonggi Contents Agency Pavilion in CES 2021, the world's largest technology exhibition, to showcase TourPutt, its AR-based putting training service.
VRotein, a VR total solution company
founded in 2012, developed an augmented reality-based putting solution called
TourPutt by using projection mapping technologies and VR and AR-related
technologies accumulated so far, and has been in sales and service business
since 2020.
TourPutt team is a product jointly
developed with Choi Jong-hwan Putting Academy, Korea's best putting teaching
institute, to allow amateurs and professionals to more systematically train
putting, an important skill that accounts for about 40% of the golf score. Choi
Jong-hwan, who is better known as the putting coach of top domestic tour pros
such as Pros Kim A-lim and Lee Jeong-eun, the winners of the US Women's Open
held at the LPGA Tour in the US, and other pros like Lee So-young, Gang
Gyeong-nam, and Song Young-han, participated deeply from the planning stage of
the product. The putting training equipment and service TourPutt was developed
by using augmented reality, projection mapping, AI and deep learning
technology.
TourPutt diagnoses the golfer's putting
pattern through the pattern test function and provides numerical statistics to
help identify his or her strengths and weaknesses. The test is conducted on a
5-meter diameter green inclined with a 3% slope, and by putting 12 times at 1,
1.5 and 2M distances which makes a total of 36 times, you can check the success
rate by slope type and distance. Also, in the case of a failed putt, it
restores the putting line and helps to find the cause of the failure.
The ball-tracking function tracks the
trajectory of the ball leaving the putter in real time and projects it onto the
artificial turf, through which the ball's cloud can be visually checked and
trained. (Visual Cueing)
The company staff said, "All putts
attempted in the pattern test and training mode are automatically saved and
managed in statistics, and it helps to set and manage individual training
goals. We want to advance to the US, Japan, Europe and Southeast Asia as well
as in Korea, and we hope to cooperate with large distributors who will be
responsible for distributing our products locally."
He continued, "Because of COVID-19, we
cannot take overseas business trips, so we have limited the service area to
Korea, and we participated in the CES 2021 exhibition to secure distributors
with priority targeting the US market, which is the No. 1 golf market. In the
first half of 2021, we plan to release a product that can be self-assembled so
that it can be made smaller and used at homes or putting teaching institutions
that do not have much space."
