Room size: will the Trackman iO DUO fit?
The Trackman iO DUO sits on the ceiling, in front of the hitting position. Overhead units read the ball from above, so the floor stays clear; the ceiling height and the mounting distance from the tee are the critical figures.
| Dimension | What to plan for | How it's worked out |
|---|---|---|
| Depth, screen to back wall | 13.5 ft minimum · 15.5 ft comfortable | 1 ft screen gap + 8–10 ft ball to screen + 4.5 ft behind the ball for the backswing |
| Width, right-handed only | 10 ft minimum · 12 ft comfortable | Swing arc on both sides of the golfer |
| Width, left- and right-handed | 12 ft minimum | Centered hitting area so either stance fits |
| Ceiling at the unit | 9 ft | Seller-stated mounting height |
Ceiling height for a full driver swing
| Golfer height | Estimated ceiling needed | Working |
|---|---|---|
| 5′6″ | 8′ 10″ | 66 in + 45.5 in × sin 45° + 1.5 in mat + 6 in margin |
| 5′10″ | 9′ 2″ | 70 in + 45.5 in × sin 45° + 1.5 in mat + 6 in margin |
| 6′2″ | 9′ 6″ | 74 in + 45.5 in × sin 45° + 1.5 in mat + 6 in margin |
| 6′5″ | 9′ 9″ | 77 in + 45.5 in × sin 45° + 1.5 in mat + 6 in margin |
FOREference calculationEstimated ceiling = golfer height + driver length × sin 45° + mat height + a safety margin. Steep, upright swings need more; test with a practice swing before you buy. Run your own numbers.
What it measures, and how

FOREference calculationFive-year total = listed hardware price + 5 × the listed annual plan. Excludes tax, a PC, the screen and enclosure. Build your full five-year budget.
Practical noteStated PC requirement: Windows 10 64-bit, 32 GB RAM, Intel i7/i9 3.4 GHz, NVIDIA RTX 4070 Ti, 1 TB SSD, two 1 Gbit Ethernet ports. See simulator PCs.
Building a simulator around it
Overhead units read from above, so left- and right-handed golfers can hit without moving the unit (confirm the hitting zone covers both stances).
What else a full simulator needs
- An impact screen and enclosure (or a net for practice without course play) — see enclosures & screens
- A short-throw projector matched to your screen shape — see the throw calculator
- A hitting mat — see mats & turf
- A Windows gaming PC that meets the stated requirement — see software & PCs
