Shadow Caddy – A Better Way to Play Golf™ Shadow Caddy is a completely new golfing product. It is a robotic caddy that faithfully follows you around the course, carrying your bags just like a human caddy. Simply settle your bag on your Shadow Caddy and off you go, free to enjoy your walk and concentrate on your game without the distraction of dragging your clubs around or fiddling with remote controls. Unlike other electric golf carts, Shadow Caddy does not work by remote control. Instead, it follows a small transmitter attached to your belt. This means that there are no joysticks to deal with – it is completely hands free. Shadow Caddy is equipped with a sophisticated object detection system which prevent collisions with people or other objects on the course. It also carries your sand buckets and drinks, enhancing your golfing experience as much as possible. Shadow Caddy won the 2008 People's Choice Award for Australia's Next Big Thing. INNOVIC's Next Big Thing Award™ is an annual competition and award to find and showcase leading-edge new inventions and innovations that have the potential to become 'the next big thing'. It was also an episode winner on a recent ABC New Inventors Program. Shadow Caddy has just been launched in Australia. It will be launched in the UK, Canada and South Africa in 2009 with other markets will follow shortly after that.
