Publication number: 20230233922Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for a smart putter and a putter gaming system. The smart putter may be configured with a plurality of sensors. The smart putter may be configured to process information from the plurality of sensors to determine whether a stroke has been performed by a user of the smart putter. Detecting a stroke has occurred may include detecting that the smart putter has impacted a golf ball on a field of play. The smart putter may further be configured to sign-in with a track associated with the putter gaming system. The putter gaming system may be configured to perform automatic scoring based, in part, on the stroke detection performed by the smart putter. The putter gaming system may further be configured to detected when a golf ball has been holed, indicating completion of a track.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2022Publication date: July 27, 2023Inventors: Vance William GALLOWAY, Marcellino TANUMIHARDJA, Bart VAN DEN BERG
