Abstract

A launch monitor is disclosed. The launch monitor may have a base, and an imaging device supported on the base. The imaging device may capture images of the object traversing the field of view. The launch monitor may have a lighting unit that emits one or more flashes of light to illuminate the object in the field of view. A duration of each flash or a time period between flashes may be adjustable. The launch monitor may have a controller that generates trigger signals to cause the lighting unit to emit flashes of light. The trigger signals may control the duration of each flash or the time period between flashes. The controller may also cause the imaging device to capture images of the object when illuminated by the flashes of light. Further, the controller may analyze the captured images to determine a parameter associated with the flight of the object.
