Room planner

See each one in your sim room.

The planner draws each unit to scale with your room and your swing: where it sits, and whether your swing clears the ceiling, walls and screen. Put in your room once, then switch units in the planner to compare.

Better for VX

  • Showroom

    Ceiling-mount aesthetic with no floor clutter, ambidextrous from install. Priced well under Uneekor's EYE XO2 and Foresight's Falcon, which makes it the value pick for buyers building a premium room without GCQuad/Falcon money.

  • Performance Seeker

    24 data points including measured spin and full club delivery, no ProTee subscription, no marked balls. On GSPro's official list through ProTee's own connector.

  • Family Setup

    Ambidextrous out of the box — no equipment moves between right and left-handed players. Permanent install, but the data is approachable enough for casual household use.
