What you'll learn

  • What to photograph for a clean read
  • How to review and correct the extracted numbers
  • How to save it as a session you can analyze

Before you start

  • A clear, glare-free photo of the data table on your monitor.
  • Good lighting and a steady hand so the text is readable.

Step by step

  1. What to photograph

    Take a clear photo of the data table on your launch monitor — the screen that shows metrics like carry distance, ball speed, launch angle, and spin rate.

  2. Image quality tips

    Use good lighting and keep the camera steady. Avoid glare or shadows on the screen. The text must be readable for the import to work.

  3. Reviewing the results

    After upload, SwingVantage will show you the extracted numbers. Review them for accuracy and correct any errors before saving.

Common mistakes

  • Photographing at an angle or with glare on the screen.

    Shoot straight on in even light so every number is legible.

  • Trusting the read without checking.

    Always review the extracted numbers and fix any before saving.

Trust & accuracy

SwingVantage leads with a fast, on-device read (heuristics) and adds AI-enhanced analysis when you turn it on. Both are decision support, not a biomechanics lab — clearer video raises confidence, and lower-quality clips are labeled as such. Use the feedback to pick one thing to work on, then let a retest confirm it.
