Which Launch Monitors Work?
Every launch monitor has different space requirements. Here's what works in your room and what doesn't.

How It Works
No Guessing. Just Math.
Every launch monitor has different space requirements based on how it measures the ball. Radar units need ball flight distance. Camera units need less room but specific placement. Overhead units need ceiling clearance. This tool checks all of it against your actual dimensions.
Enter Your Room
Width, depth, and ceiling height. Measure the lowest point of your ceiling — if you have pendant lights or ductwork, that's your real ceiling height. Use a quick preset if you're just exploring.
See What Fits
The calculator checks every launch monitor technology type — radar, camera, overhead, and hybrid — against your room. You get a side-view diagram showing ball flight trajectory, ceiling clearance, and LM placement.
Get Build Paths
Based on what fits, you get recommended builds from budget to premium. Each build includes the launch monitor, enclosure size, and net/screen that works in your exact space. No "it depends" — just "it fits."
Know the Gotchas
The tool flags specific issues: ceiling too low for driver swing, not enough depth for radar, ball flight apex hitting the ceiling, or side-room needed for left-handed play. Real problems, real fixes.
Why Room Depth Matters More Than You Think
The technology inside your launch monitor determines how much room it needs. This is the thing most buyers get wrong — they buy a radar unit for a 10-foot room and wonder why the numbers are off.
Radar (Doppler)
Garmin R10, FlightScope Mevo+, Garmin R50, Full Swing Kit. Radar tracks the ball through its full flight, so it needs 15-16+ feet of ball flight distance for reliable indoor accuracy. The unit sits behind the golfer, 6-9 feet back from the ball. In a shallow room, spin and launch data become estimates, not measurements.
Photometric (Camera)
Foresight GC3, Bushnell Launch Pro, SkyTrak+. Camera-based units watch the ball for the first few inches after impact — they don't need ball flight distance. 8-10 feet of depth is usually enough. They sit on the floor in front of the golfer, 4-8 feet from the screen.
Overhead (Ceiling-Mounted)
Uneekor EYE XO, Trackman iO, ProTee VX. Mounted to the ceiling above the hitting area. Needs 9-10 foot minimum ceiling height and 10-12 feet of depth. The upside: the floor stays clear, no unit to kick, and left/right-handed switching is instant.
Your Room Works. Now What?
You know your dimensions. You know what fits. Now build the sim — or compare prices side by side before you buy.
