Optimize your golf or baseball swing to produce maximum distance and control with the Swing Speed Radar from Sports Sensors. The Swing Speed Radar is a small microwave Doppler radar velocity sensor that measures the swing speed of golfers and baseball/softball players. Most players know that increased swing speed corresponds to increased distance. However, over-swinging can produce poor results, as suggested by the advice, "It's not how hard you swing, but how well you swing." The Swing Speed Radar helps you improve both metrics by measuring your swing speed, determining the best speed for optimum performance, monitoring your swing consistency, and selecting the club or bat characteristics that best suit your swing type. Golfers can use the device to determine the optimum swing for distance, control, and accuracy, while baseball/softball players can work on honing their bat speed to create consistently solid contact. The Swing Speed Radar's real-time velocity feedback helps players and coaches measure improvements and troubleshoot swing mechanics.

To measure golf swing speed, merely position the Swing Speed Radar in a forward location about 8 to 10 inches directly away from the tee. In baseball or softball applications, meanwhile, you can hang the device on a batting cage, pop-up net, or fence, or mount it on a tripod about 5 feet in front of or behind the player while he or she swings in the air or hits off a tee. By locating the Swing Speed Radar at a height that corresponds to the plane of the bat swing, the bat speed is measured "out front" of the batter in the hitting zone, which is where contact with the ball produces the best results. Put another way, the device measure the speed of the barrel of the bat, not the tip. This makes the Swing Speed Radar a great tool for helping you select the optimum bat size and weight for your swing.

The radar device captures both golf and baseball swing speeds.

Powered by three AA batteries, the Swing Speed Radar is safe and accurate, with a transmission level that's well within FCC requirements and prescribed safety levels. The microprocessor-controlled electronics, meanwhile, calculate clubhead or bat speeds on an LCD display within a range of 20 to 200 miles per hour (or km per hour, if the user prefers). A valuable aid for players of all ages and skill levels, the Swing Speed Radar is a powerful tool for coaches and instructors everywhere.
