Golf Launch Monitors
Stymie tracks 36 golf launch monitors from 16 brands, priced from $200 to $25995. Each is normalized on what actually drives the buying decision: measurement technology (Doppler radar vs camera/photometric), how many data points it captures, whether it measures spin or estimates it, simulator/course-play support and compatible software, indoor vs outdoor use, and — critically — whether a paid subscription is required. Use the brand or model pages below to compare any two head-to-head. If you would rather build than buy, there is also an open-source option: OpenFlight is a launch monitor you assemble from a Raspberry Pi and a Doppler radar for roughly $400 in parts, listed separately from the commercial units below.

OpenFlight
DIY · open sourceAGPL-3.0A launch monitor you assemble yourself around a Raspberry Pi and an OPS243-A Doppler radar, which reads ball speed and club speed straight from physics. The project puts that base build at roughly $400 in parts and publishes every algorithm. Adding an optional TI IWR6843 radar — about $156 more — buys measured launch angle and an experimental club path. It works with no connection at the range: sessions queue on the Pi and sync later to its companion cloud, FlightWeb. There is no subscription, and the whole stack is AGPL-3.0.
Without the angle radar you still get ball speed, club speed, smash factor and estimated carry; spin is experimental. Listed as a DIY option at the project's invitation. Stymie has not tested it and holds no measured accuracy data for it, so it sits outside the specification tables and comparisons above — those cover commercially available units only.
