The Pik'r-1500, designed for rugged terrains like Pinehurst's
driving range, features a durable steel frame and a thick
stainless-steel shell, ensuring it operates under the harsh
conditions of a professional practice range. Equipped with advanced
GPS technology, the robot efficiently collects thousands of balls
daily, ensuring a seamless supply for competitors.
The Pik'r Advantage
The introduction of the Pik'r-1500 at a high-profile event such
as the U.S. Open highlights its capacity and reliability. The
robot's lightweight design, paired with a long-lasting battery,
allows for all-day operation, minimizing disruptions to practice
sessions. Its autonomous nature not only reduces the labor required
for ball collection but also significantly cuts down on operational
costs and environmental impact, operating on less than $1/day of
electricity.
A Sustainable and Efficient Solution
As golf facilities worldwide face staffing shortages, the Pik'r
offers a sustainable solution to the labor-intensive task of range
picking. By automating ball retrieval, staff can focus on enhancing
guest experiences and other value-added services. This shift not
only addresses operational challenges but also aligns with the
growing trend towards sustainable practices in sports
management.
