Smarter than your average bear
Remember when golf carts were just … carts? Those days are gone.
Stewart Golf’s new V10 Remote packs a processor they’re calling the “Cortex” microchip—a name that suggests this thing is one AI implementation away from offering swing tips. According to Stewart, this silicon brain assesses the environment 1,000 times per second, approximately 999 more times per second than most golfers assess their lie.
The chip powers what Stewart calls “Active Terrain Control” (ATC), a technology that provides consistent speed control whether you’re going uphill, downhill or across terrain that looks like it was designed by a drunk gopher. Where other electric trolleys might make a break for the nearest water hazard on a steep downslope, according to Stewart the V10 stays locked in like it’s on a mission.
