Abstract

Nonrealistic rendering techniques that enhance viewer perception of golf green topography and how that topography affects putting are discussed. Conventional computer graphics and numerical analysis techniques are combined with application-specific modeling and analysis algorithms to enhance a viewer's understanding of the golf green and model golf ball trajectories and putting difficulty. The coding of the system in LYMB and implementation of the system in broadcasts of two golf tournaments are described.

Golf green visualization
VIS '91: Proceedings of the 2nd conference on Visualization '91

Television coverage of golf fails to bring the viewer an appreciation of the complex topography of a golf green and how that topography affects the putting of golf balls, We present a computer graphics simulation that enhances the viewer perception of ...
Visualization of putting trajectories in live golf broadcasting
SIGGRAPH '19: ACM SIGGRAPH 2019 Talks

We developed a system for visualizing golf putting trajectories that can be used in live broadcasting. The trajectory computer graphics (CGs) in a golf putting scene are useful for visualizing the results of past plays and the shape of the green. In ...

ICPPW '12: Proceedings of the 2012 41st International Conference on Parallel Processing Workshops

In the process of sport learning, learners spend a lot of time on practicing in order to develop correct action habit. Take golf practice as an example. Without the supervising of coaches, novices may keep practicing wrong swing actions, and that will ...
