Bravo BV31 Golf Launch Monitor
🎯 Bravo BV31 Golf Launch Monitor is a ceiling-mounted indoor golf sensor system built around high-speed camera and stereo vision technology. Bravo states that the BV31 tracks ball flight in three dimensions and delivers measurement accuracy of up to 99.99%. The overhead position keeps the hitting area clear and allows the same sensor to be used by both right- and left-handed golfers.
📸 Stereo Vision Ball & Club Tracking
The BV31 uses a high-speed three-dimensional vision analysis method rather than a conventional frame-based rotation calculation system. Bravo describes the technology as a stereo vision system using two cameras to analyse the golf ball and club.
- Ceiling-mounted indoor sensor
- High-speed stereo vision analysis
- Ball and club measurement
- No marked ball required
- One centred system for right- and left-handed golfers
📊 Measured Data
Bravo publishes the following recognition ranges and tolerances for the BV sensor family. Their applicability to the supplied BV31 has not been verified and should be confirmed with the supplier:
| Measurement | Recognition range | Published tolerance |
|---|---|---|
| Ball speed | 0–400 km/h | 2 km/h |
| Azimuth | -90° to +90° | 0.5° |
| Trajectory / launch angle | 0°–90° | 0.2° |
| Backspin | 0–16,000 rpm | 200 rpm |
| Sidespin | -3,000 to +3,000 rpm | 20 rpm |
| Club speed | 0–300 km/h | 5 km/h |
Bravo also lists club path analysis for the BV system in its comparison with the Bravo Spin sensor.
⚪ No Marked Balls Required
The BV system does not require a marked ball. This makes it practical for simulator rooms where players want to use standard golf balls without preparing or aligning a special marking pattern.
↔️ Right- & Left-Handed Play
Bravo specifies the BV sensor as a centred ceiling-mounted system that supports both right- and left-handed golfers with a single sensor installation. There is no need to move the launch monitor when players change sides.
