Abstract: In method and apparatus for analyzing motion of an individual for a predetermined activity, such as during a golf swing, forces on weight pads supporting the individual's feet are converted to signals corresponding to relative weights and dynamic forces on the weight pads. These parameters are displayed numerically as well as graphically on a video image of the individual during performance of the activity, in order to enable the analysis of variation in weight distribution and dynamic forces during the activity.

Abstract: A golf training and practice apparatus has a television display and a plurality of sensors for sensing positions of a head of a golf club during the swing at a ball at a given location. A circuit responsive to the times of positioning of the head with respect to the sensors provides output signals to enable display on the television display of a graphic representation of the direction of the swing. The circuit also enables alphanumeric display of other parameters of the swing, and provides on the television display a fixed image of the angle of the face of the club at a time just before the ball reaches the ball position location. In order to also provide information relating to the golfer's stance, the apparatus includes sensors for indicating in alphanumeric characters the relative weight on each of the golfer's feet during various portions of the swing.
