AI Tracks Swing Mechanics in Real Time

What happened

Bryson DeChambeau uses Google Cloud tools with deep learning algorithms and proprietary 2D and 3D models to track over 30 key points on the body, club, and ball. The system records outcomes at stages such as top of swing, impact, follow-through, and finish. Data from these models feeds directly into performance adjustments.

Why it matters

This approach shows how computer vision can replace guesswork with measurable data. Athletes gain precise feedback on movement rather than relying on coach intuition alone. Teams that adopt similar systems can reduce training errors and speed up skill refinement.

Who's doing it

Bryson DeChambeau partners with Google Cloud to apply these models during practice sessions. The system delivers shot-by-shot breakdowns that support immediate technique changes.

Try it

  1. Open Google Cloud Vision API at cloud.google.com/vision.
  2. Upload video of a golf swing and select pose detection to track body and club points.
  3. Review the generated keypoint data and adjust swing mechanics based on the output metrics.
