Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005116678A2] An apparatus and a method of providing information relating to a projectile, such as a sports ball, such as a golf ball. The apparatus and method provide better estimations of e.g. the landing point of the projectile or its position in general in that an oscillating signal caused e.g. by multiple path reflections of the radiation, is identified and may be removed in order to generate the "true" signal used for the landing point determination. This oscillating signal may be used for quantifying an error of the landing point determination or may be used for providing information relating to the surroundings of the projectile during its flight.
