Now golfers can interact with the platform on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, which is installed directly onto golf cart canopies and remains powered on throughout the entire round. The platform is also a powerful tool for golf course operators to help build guest loyalty, and potentially increase course revenue and lower operating costs. The platform is specifically designed to promote interaction between the golfer and the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 throughout their round, providing an opportunity for golf course operators and advertisers to interact directly with golfers in ways that have never been possible before. Benefits to Golfers: The Digital Caddies Player's Network on the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 delivers content golfers can use, such as accurate distance measuring, weather, golfer-to-course operator messaging and coming soon live news, sports scores and stock market updates. Digital Caddies Player's Network content is displayed on the tablet's beautiful 10.1-inch touchscreen display and is powered by a 1.5GHz dual-core processor. Benefits to Golf Courses: Course operators can track their golf cart fleet, manage pace of play, communicate with their golfers and market merchandise, food and beverage specials, lessons, repeat rounds or anything else through promotional videos or graphics.
