The Quest for the Perfect Lighted Golf Ball..... Does It Exist?

By David Dawsey PE Esq

ADVERTISEMENTS
A truly playable lighted golf ball?. can it be made? I have my doubts. Last week a lighted golf ball patent application published in which the inventor discloses his view of the ideal lighted golf ball. The application published as US Pub. No. 20080108454 titled ?Golf Ball Containing Photoluminescent Material and a Light Source,? which describes the invention as:

A photoluminescent, light-emitting golf ball comprises a substantially solid core with an outer shell, both formed of a light transmissive material. Photoluminescent particles are distributed within the light transmissive material. A light-emitting circuit assembly embedded within the core includes at least one battery, a control circuit coupled to the at least one battery, a plurality of light-emitting diodes coupled to the control circuit, and an impact switch electrically connected between the battery and the control circuit. The control circuit actuates the light-emitting diodes for a predetermined time period in response to an impact of the golf ball by a golf club. Actuation of the light-emitting diodes by an impact on the golf ball excites the photoluminescent particles, causing the particles to glow in excess of the predetermined time period of actuation of the light-emitting diodes.


Interesting, but my gut tells me that there are a few technical challenges that the inventor will have to overcome.
