TeeSafe™

Solar Powered Wireless Alerting System

The TeeSafe™ Solar Powered Hazard Warning System is an advancement on the traditional bell system used for blind shots on a golf course. The system is activated when the golfer enters the blind region and is deactivated as the golfer leaves the blind region. Approaching golfers have a clear indication when other players are within the blind region.

Background

A blind region is a position on a golf course where a golfer is not visible to approaching golfers due to the terrain. This poses a safety risk to all golfers hitting into or from the blind region. The traditional method to minimise this risk is for the golfer to avoid hitting into these blind regions until they hear the bell sounded by golfers leaving the area. The bell may not always be heard by golfers particularly during windy conditions or where bells are used on more than one hole it may be

difficult to determine which hole the bell was sounded for.

TeeSafe™ Product

The TeeSafe™ hazard warning system addresses the risk to golfers by providing a clear signal when golfers are playing into or from the blind regions. The signal is activated by the golfers. The system comprises two units (primary and secondary) and includes a solar panel that recharges the unit batteries. The two standalone units communicate with each other via a wireless radio link.

Other Applications

The system includes a solar powered standalone wireless point to point/point to multipoint communication platform. This platform provides a generic hardware platform which enables any outdoor self powered microprocessor controlled applications capable of wireless communication to similar devices to be developed. Such a system can be used in many applications such as irrigation and frost control in farms/vineyards, hazard warning lights for rail road crossings, and temporary traffic lights systems.
