Forephase

Team Members

John Neumann (Electrical Engineering)

Forephase is a small tracking system that records the real-time 3D trajectory of a golf ball in flight. The system works at driving ranges or golf courses with any club or ball and provides the golfer with actual shot information. After tracking, it formulates suggestions based on performance. The data is sent wirelessly to a logging website for later review and comparison. Golfers pay a per-bucket (range), per-round, or monthly fee to activate tracking, or can buy their own system.

Izuma Networks is building software which runs at the lowest part of the operating system. At this level, we can fundamentally change the way software executes on your PC. Instead of software being installed on each system, it is sent to the computer when a user needs it across the network. Caching files at the switch level, allows this system to be fast as, or even faster than normal computers. The benefits are fat client processing power, with the manageability of a thin client system.
