AR Experience Report: Golfscape

Let me start off by saying that I don’t play golf, but if I did this app seems like it would be really cool. The basic idea of Golfscape is using GPS coordinates to tell you the distance to several points of interest on a golf course. Other products usually transmit this information from a bird’s eye view. While useful, it can be difficult to translate from the third person view to your first person view. Golfscape’s solution is to superimpose this  information on top of the camera view. This makes it easy to see exactly what trajectory to aim for.

I think this is another good example of how “In Place Display” can really make a better experience.
