Some golfers want to go green with solar-powered golf carts, but this Golf Launchpad lets you hit the greens without even leaving your house. The $450 input device works with either the PC or Sony's PlayStation 2 and has a regulation golf ball attached to it that feels like the real thing.
When you smack or putt that ball with your own clubs, the system can tell exactly how hard you hit it, and in which direction it would have traveled. Then it translates that information into something your copy of Tiger Woods PGA Tour can understand. You'd better have high ceilings, though, because with a standard 8-foot height you won't be able to use clubs much longer than a 6-iron.
