The present invention relates to an electronic caddie-type golf assistance system and, more particularly, to an electronic caddie-type golf assistance system based on weather information calculated by inputting weather measurements into high-precision weather modeling. The golf assistance system according to the present invention comprises: a weather information acquisition device for acquiring weather information of a golf course; a wind information restoration device which models the weather information acquired by the weather information acquisition device to restore wind information; and an electronic caddie device for providing caddie information on the basis of the restored wind information. The golf assistance system according to the present invention may improve golfing performance by providing local-scale 3D wind information of a golf course.

Methods and systems for detecting configuration states of a golf club and adjustment systems of a golf club, such as a shaft connection system. A golf club configuration detection system captures configuration data from the adjustment system of the golf club by a configuration detection device, such as a camera, a barcode scanner, or an RFID scanner. The captured configuration data is compared to reference configuration data to determine a configuration state of the adjustment system. Swing data and ball-flight data are tracked for golf-ball strikes with the golf club in the detected configuration state. Recommendations for configuration states may be generated based on the tracked data.

A sport apparatus comprising a shaft, wherein the shaft comprises a notch fitting and a sensor housing. The sensor housing comprises an alignment rib fitting, printed circuit board, rechargeable battery, one or more motion sensors, a transceiver, an inductive charging coil, among other necessary elements for the sport apparatus as described herein. A portion of the sensor housing resides within the shaft, wherein the alignment rib of the sensor housing mates with a notch or other locking mechanism of the shaft.

A system includes a minimally intrusive display system (MIDS) configured to be disposed on an eyewear. The MIDS includes a display system and a sensor system configured to provide for a sensor data. The MIDS further includes a processor configured to download a workout and to process the sensor data to monitor a user wearing the MIDS during the workout. The processor is further configured to display, via the display system, a workout progress based on the monitoring.

Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to systems, methods, and computer-readable media configured to autonomously track a round of golf and/or autonomously generate personalized recommendations for a user before, during, or after a round of golf. The systems and methods can utilize course data, environmental data, user data, and/or equipment data in conjunctions with one or more machine learning algorithms to autonomously generate the personalized recommendations.
