Current foundation
A defined ball-translation architecture, trajectory-model separation, aerodynamic and impact research direction, and use cases across Savant products.

Aero
A shared physics layer designed to model any ball and any shot, distinguish measurement from prediction, translate range-ball evidence to the golfer's selected ball, and show what other balls would have done.
Evidence discipline
What exists, what is being built, and what must be proven next.
Active development
Ball coefficient records, impact response, atmosphere and altitude, trajectory solver, uncertainty, range-ball translation, and comparison among playing balls.
Next proof
Controlled ball testing, measured initial conditions, independent flight references, environmental studies, repeatability, and ball-specific acceptance thresholds.
A range ball is not your ball.
Range balls are often engineered for durability, retrieval, limited flight, or facility economics. Their construction, impact response, lift, drag, and spin decay can differ markedly from ordinary playing balls. Displaying the range ball's result as though it were universal misstates the golfer's real question.
Any ball. Any shot.
Aero is intended to support full swings, partial shots, short game, ball fitting, launch tracking, ranges, simulation, equipment work, smart-ball systems, ball design, altitude, atmosphere, and other uses of Savant's ball-flight intellectual property.
Measurement and trajectory are different technologies.
A sensor measures an initial or continuing state. A trajectory model applies physics to that state. Aero preserves that distinction so observed, derived, modeled, and inferred values remain identifiable.
Translate the event to the selected playing ball.
Given validated ball-specific evidence and measured initial conditions, Aero can calculate how the golfer's selected ball would be expected to fly—and compare alternative balls under the same shot and environment.
A shared layer, not a range-only feature.
Aero can serve Savant Range, Savant Swing, Savant FIT, Savant Ball, Savant Purity, Coursecraft, equipment development, and independent licensing or research uses.
One continuing record
What this adds to MyGolfSavant.
The ball model, measured event, environment, comparison, and uncertainty remain connected to the golfer and the decision that followed.
Measures
Initial state and flight evidence supplied by the applicable sensing system.
Interprets
Ball-specific impact response, aerodynamic forces, trajectory, environment, uncertainty, and comparisons.
Remembers
The measured ball, selected playing ball, alternatives, club, shot, conditions, model version, result, and response.
Changes next
Ranges, fitters, simulators, ball companies, and golfers can answer the question about the ball that actually matters.
