Well, you don't expect Quartz to get everything right about golf. Why can't you bring a regular camera into a bunker or putting green? And the age old keep your head down.

Quote:
Nike’s box contains a camera that can break out a recording of swing frame by frame, and for different parts of the motion. On review, a golf pro could focus the video on the club hitting the ball (stay in the sweet spot), the hands (keep that grip loose), the feet (plant that front foot), or the head (keep it down).
While it’s uncertain whether Nike is actually developing this patent into a product that it would offer to consumers, the idea is in keeping with the company’s recent moves to own more of the golfing experience.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

But is it tuned only to the "ideal golf swing?" or does it include settings for S&T; and similar swings?
