An interactive golf venue combines a simulator bay with sensors and a scoring layer, so a session produces both a game result and data the player can learn from. The bay Players hit real clubs and real balls into a projected course. High definition projection shows the fairway, obstacles and green, so the shot has a target rather than a blank screen. Measurement and scoring Sensors: hardware measures club and ball to derive the shot’s speed, direction and distance. Scoring: a scoring layer records each player’s result, so a group can play a round or a challenge. Live data: the screen shows the shot result and the session statistics, which players use to adjust aim and technique. Play formats The venue supports several formats — practice on a chosen course, head to head competition, and challenge modes with defined targets. Because courses and difficulty can be changed without changing the room, the same bay serves beginners, regulars and corporate groups. Weather is not a variable indoors: the bay plays the same in summer and winter, which is what makes scheduled leagues and lessons practical. For the wider venue model see indoor golf simulator venue.
