Abstract:
A mixed reality golf simulation and training system that can use, along with a user's existing standard golf equipment, a golf ball launch monitor to track the initial ball positional data, spin and acceleration, and simulate the complete ball path and location or use complete ball tracking data and displays the actual ball path and location. Mixed reality glasses allow the display of ball tracking data over the real world view and/or an immersive display of a simulated world view, depending on the user's head or view position. Golf simulation graphical views can include various options, including simulated or panoramic photographic views of a golf course, simulated graphics and data superimposed over a real world driving range view, or simple ball tracking data superimposed over a real world view at any location.

Claim (Index 27):
A mixed-reality golf simulation system comprising:\n a ball-tracking sub-system configured to generate ball-tracking data when a golf ball is hit by a user; a near-eye display including a partially-transparent display element configured to display virtual objects over physical objects within a user field of view to provide a mixed-reality environment, wherein the near-eye display includes a user input device, wherein the near-eye display includes one or more head orientation sensors to determine a head orientation of the user; and a controller communicatively coupled to the ball-tracking sub-system and the near-eye display, the controller including one or more processors configured to execute program instructions causing the one or more processors to:\n direct the near-eye display to display, based on a head orientation of the user received from the near-eye display, virtual objects of a mixed-reality environment within at least a portion of the user field of view when the near-eye display indicates that the user is looking in one or more user-configured directions and provide an at least partially unobstructed real-world view through the partially-transparent display element otherwise, wherein at least one of the one or more user-configured directions includes a target direction at which the ball is to be hit by the user selected with the user input device; \n receive ball-tracking data of a ball hit by the user in real-time from the ball-tracking sub-system; and \n direct the near-eye display to display a virtual object representing a trajectory of the ball within the mixed-reality environment in real-time, wherein the trajectory of the ball is based on the ball-tracking data.
