This is a work in progress -- it is currently usable but missing some features.
Visualize the placement of the finger holes in a bowling ball.
Try it here: https://layout-visualizer.vercel.app/
High-performance bowling balls have irregularly-shaped weight blocks in their cores that are specially designed to induce gyration when the ball spins about a certain axis, helping it "hook" (curve) into the pins to maximize the chances of getting a strike. Therefore, it is important to drill the finger holes in a location such that when the bowler rolls the ball down the lane, the axis of rotation is at a point that allows the weight block to generate the optimal amount of gyration.
The orientation of the weight block is marked by a "pin" on the surface of the ball, while another mark indicates its center of gravity (CG). On bowling balls with "asymmetrical" weight blocks, a third mark shows the point at which the mass is at its most uneven between the two halves; this is known as the mass bias. With these points, along with the bowler's "positive axis point" (PAP), which is a measurement of the axis of rotation in relation to their hand position as they release the ball, a skilled ball driller can fine-tune the ball's drilling layout to suit each individual player.
This is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app.
First, run the development server:
npm run dev
# or
yarn devOpen http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.
You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.
API routes can be accessed on http://localhost:3000/api/hello. This endpoint can be edited in pages/api/hello.ts.
The pages/api directory is mapped to /api/*. Files in this directory are treated as API routes instead of React pages.
To learn more about Next.js, take a look at the following resources:
- Next.js Documentation - learn about Next.js features and API.
- Learn Next.js - an interactive Next.js tutorial.
You can check out the Next.js GitHub repository - your feedback and contributions are welcome!
The easiest way to deploy your Next.js app is to use the Vercel Platform from the creators of Next.js.
