Abstract
An integrated distance measuring device for golf comprises a satellite navigation receiver operable to determine a current location of the device; a laser rangefinder operable to determine a distance from the current location of the device to an object on a golf course; a compass operable to determine a bearing of the device when it is aimed at the object; a display; and a computing device. The computing device is programmed to determine a location of the object as a function of the current location of the device, the distance to the object, and the bearing of the device. The computing device may also be programmed to calculate a distance between the object and a second object on the golf course as a function of the location of the object and pre-mapped location information for the second object. The computing device may also be programmed to present on the display a representation of the current location of the device, a representation of the location of the object, a representation of the second object, a representation of the distance between the current location of the device and the location of the object, as well as a representation of the distance between the object and the second object.
