NASA 360 and the LPGA

Posted on May 08, 2009 10:20:31 AM | Kevin Krigsvold | 4 Comments   

We just returned from shooting a segment with LPGA pro Katherine Hull at the Kingsmill Golf Resort in Williamsburg VA.  We were shooting a story about a NASA biofeedback device that is being used to help golfers of all abilities putt better.  This technology was originally used to help train pilots, astronauts, and air traffic controllers.  Needless to say, Katherine was knocking down putts all day long!  The segment will be coming out soon with another story about Olympic swimmer Katie Hoff and how a NASA technology is helping football players and other athletes avoid heatstroke.  This show should be out soon , but you can see pictures of this shoot and others at this site:

Damian,
We'll keep you posted. It's in a development phase at the moment. It is very cool and works well. Hull was a good sport and actually did train herself to focus on putting.

Where can I get one of these from? Putting is the only part of my game that lets me down.

It is absolutely amazing at the kind of spin off benefits that are generated thanks to NASA. This is just another example of why NASA should always and continue to be funded. Areas of our society benefit in ways we could never have imagined.
