Implementation of 3D simulator for golf putting green

摘要

In this paper, we implemented the 3D simulator for golf putting green by using the Simulink data of golf ball motion with OpenGL. A golf putting green surface formula is approximated using polynomial equations. In the 3D simulator, golf ball and other objects are designed in 3ds Max software. For a communication between 3D simulator and Matlab Simulink model, we used virtual com port software. A result of animation can be seen in 3D by using Samsung 3D LED monitor and shutter glasses.
