  Q10: What about lighting?

A: Included in the Quintic Package is a LED for both use indoors and outdoors. This provides sufficient white light to enable a high shutter speed for clear, sharp images of the golf ball. The LED is powered via mains power, with its main advantage, it doesn't get hot! See the image below.
 
     
 
 
     
  Q11: Can Quintic Ball Roll be used indoors or outdoors?

A:Yes, the software can be used indoors and outdoors with the same degree of accuracy. After the initial calibration procedure ('T' Bar) you can use it on an outdoor green using straight, uphill, downhill, left to right, or right to left putts to further analyse a golfers tendencies. One significant advantage of the USB3 High-Speed Camera is that no external power supply is required (power is drawn via the USB3 port of the computer). When using the software outside, if appropriate you can use an external power pack for longer battery life.

In addition Quintic have produced an outdoor travel case. The case is designed to hold all the items you will require to operate the software outdoors... this includes the camera stand, LED light, outdoor stand, lithium batteries (to power the LED), high-speed camera + cable, balls etc... The case is designed for air travel as checked baggage.

  Q14: What is the best length putt to set the system up with?

A: You can use the system on a number of different putt lengths, from 8ft, to 25ft.... it depends on the studio / facility you have? It is interesting to see how the player performs at different distances... Quintic would recommend people start with a 12 / 15 foot putt to begin with. It is however interesting to see how a players stroke differs depending on the distance.
