Abstract
The GPS-locating sports ball comprises a ball, a locating circuit, and software. The locating circuit may determine one or more physical parameters of the ball. As a non-limiting example, the ball may be a golf ball, a tennis ball, a baseball, a softball, or a bowling ball. The locating circuit may communicate the one or more physical parameters to the software running on a smart device. The software may be operable to assist in locating a lost ball and in monitoring improvements in athletic performance based upon an analysis of the one or more physical parameters.
