ORLANDO, Fla. (August 19, 2009) – FlightScope®, a premier portable indoor-outdoor ball-flight and launch monitor and the world’s first-ever 3D Doppler tracking radar for golf, will introduce its new wireless model, FlightScope Prime®, at the PGA Fall Expo in Las Vegas. FlightScope Prime, a revolutionary technological advancement in the field, will be exhibited at Demo Day at Paiute Golf Club Aug. 31 and also in ETC bay #7 in the Convention Center at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino Sept. 1-2.
“FlightScope Prime provides our state-of-the-art technology in a wireless model for instructors and club fitters who prefer this exciting new format,” says Henri Johnson, CEO of EDH, maker of FlightScope, whose worldwide sales and marketing division is headquartered in Orlando, Fla. “Battery operated and totally portable with Bluetooth connectivity, it represents a brand-new technology solution while using FlightScope’s renowned system of real-time tracking and precise measurements.”
FlightScope, an award-winning feature-rich device which is far more than just a launch monitor, is being discovered worldwide for its advanced technological attributes. Many golf clubs, instructors, academies, club fitters, collegiate golf programs, green-grass and practice facilities, retailers and golf equipment manufacturers have embraced FlightScope’s state-of-the-art technology.
FlightScope first was demonstrated in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., in 2001 and was introduced at the 2004 PGA Merchandise Show. In addition to its use at high-profile teaching academies and club-fitting venues worldwide, FlightScope is utilized for personal practice by tour professionals and avid golfers devoted to game improvement. It is known for its ease of use as well as the precision and accuracy of its technology. FlightScope employs phased array and ballistic tracking technology to record accurately the ball trajectory and to provide actual launch data. The characteristic distinguishing FlightScope from existing launch monitor technology is that FlightScope records the trajectory accurately in the precise environment in which the ball travels, thereby providing actual rather than implied data. The resultant ability of golfers, club fitters and instructors to see the actual ball trajectory at various angles allows them to make precise adjustments for enhanced performance.
EDH, maker of FlightScope, is a product development company founded in 1989 by Henri Johnson, inventor and electronic engineer. EDH develops products for the defense and sports markets, and has as its core expertise the design and development of 3D tracking radar systems.
