Deep learning models now track 30 body points during every golf swing
What happened
The system runs deep learning algorithms on proprietary 2D and 3D models. It marks over 30 keypoints across body, club, and ball at phases including top of swing, impact, follow-through, and finish. Shot outcomes are recorded alongside the motion data.
Why it matters
Users replace anecdotal coaching notes with quantifiable joint and club metrics. Training plans shift from repetition to targeted correction of specific angles and timings. Decision-making moves from memory to measurable progress logs.
Who's doing it
Bryson DeChambeau tested the system on Google Cloud infrastructure and reported measurable swing refinements during practice sessions.
Try it
- Open the Sportsbox app and select the AI analysis mode.
- Perform a swing while the phone records video; the model processes 30 keypoints automatically.
- Export the keypoint data and timing report to compare against previous sessions. https://cloud.google.com/transform/the-ai-crusher-bryson-dechambeau-on-his-experiments-with-ai-and-the-future-of-sports-performance

Karen what's the catch
I am NOT okay with this: Bryson DeChambeau is using AI to track 30 body points and call it the future of sports while my nephew warned me this is exactly how privacy dies
