LOOPER®
Consistency isn’t repetition. It’s a loop.
The camera sees the swing. LOOPER explores the mind behind it.

How LOOPER Works
01 / EXPRESS
The golfer shares their thoughts, intentions and mental state before a shot, providing LOOPER with insights into their mental approach.
02 / INTERPRET
LOOPER uses AI to estimate the golfer’s mental state from their input, allowing the player to review and confirm the interpretation.
03 / RESPOND
LOOPER suggests a targeted mental-performance prompt or routine based on the player’s confirmed state, helping them prepare for their next shot.
The Technology Behind LOOPER®
LOOPER® explores a new approach to golf performance technology — one that considers the player’s mental experience alongside physical performance. Through player-reported input, AI-assisted interpretation and tailored mental routines, the prototype investigates how intelligent systems might support more personalised preparation and decision-making.
CURRENT PROTOTYPE
LOOPER® combines player-reported psychological states, AI-assisted interpretation and personalised pre-shot interventions. Players can review and confirm the system’s interpretation, helping explore how mental preparation influences their approach to each shot.
IN DEVELOPMENT · V3
LOOPER® V3 will explore the integration of Apple Watch physiological data, AI-assisted psychological-state modelling and Rapsodo launch-monitor metrics. By connecting mental preparation, physiological signals and shot-performance data, the research aims to investigate how these factors interact and inform more personalised mental-performance interventions.
The LOOPER® Research Vision
What if golf performance could be understood not only through the mechanics of a swing, but also through the psychological and physiological processes that precede it?
LOOPER® is exploring this question by investigating how player-reported mental states, wearable physiological signals and objective shot-performance data might be brought together. The long-term research vision is to develop and evaluate more personalised approaches to mental preparation, informed by the relationship between mind, body and performance.
Psychological State
LOOPER® investigates how a golfer’s confidence, focus, emotional state and pre-shot thinking may influence their preparation and performance. Through player-reported input and AI-assisted interpretation, the research aims to better understand the psychological processes behind each shot.
Wearable Physiology
LOOPER® V3 aims to explore how Apple Watch physiological measurements, including heart rate and heart-rate variability, might provide additional context for a golfer’s mental preparation. By examining these signals alongside player-reported psychological states, the research will investigate potential relationships between physiological responses, mental state and performance.
Launch Monitor Data
LOOPER® V3 aims to explore integration with Rapsodo launch-monitor technology, connecting objective shot metrics with player-reported psychological states and wearable physiological signals. This research will investigate potential relationships between mental preparation, physiological responses and measurable golf-shot outcomes.
