The Biomechanics Of Golf

Golf is a very challenging sport. One minimal mistake in a players swing can prove to be disastrous. Scientists and engineers are trying to help ease the pain that comes along when checking the score card after a round by the use of kinematics and biomechanics.Kinematics is the study of motion without discussing the forces that cause the motion. Kinematics is mainly seen as the study of the relationship of angles and lines, pivot and paths. Motion capture is the process of capturing and quantifying motion so that biomechanics' principles can be used to analyze it. The use of motion capture and analysis system are being used to improve athletic performance, analyze movement disorder and rehabilitate injuries.

Golf Swing Kinematics is a quest for the explaining the mechanics of the golf swing. One of the methods in the attempt to explain the mechanics is the SkillTec 3D-Golf. It is based on recently developed biomechanics software from Skill Technologies Inc. called the SKILL......
