Golf swing captured in 3D and sold to a major athlete
What happened
Bryson DeChambeau led investors in an eight-figure acquisition of Sportsbox AI in April. The Sportsbox 3D Golf app builds a motion-capture avatar from a user's swing video. The deal targets the multibillion-dollar golf equipment market.
Why it matters
Users learn that a single video of movement can become measurable performance data. This shifts analysis from subjective coaching notes to quantitative 3D joint angles and club paths. Workflows now start with smartphone footage instead of expensive lab sessions.
Who's doing it
Bryson DeChambeau and Sportsbox AI completed the acquisition and continue developing the 3D Golf app for swing analysis.
Try it
- Open the Sportsbox 3D Golf app on your phone and record a full swing video.
- Let the app generate the 3D avatar and review the joint-angle metrics it displays.
- Compare the numbers across multiple swings to identify the largest variance and adjust your setup accordingly. https://www.sportsbox.ai
