The Tempo Walk, by golf cart manufacturer Club Car, is an autonomous golf caddie. Developed before the pandemic, the original version was pretty utilitarian-looking:
When it was time for a design upgrade, Club Car contacted industrial design firm Cardboard Helicopter for help.
“At Cardboard Helicopter, our team was delighted to collaborate with Tempo Walk to create an innovative and cutting-edge autonomous golf caddie. Our goal was to provide golfers with a unique and immersive experience on the golf course. From the initial stages of industrial design sketch concepts to the final manufacturing production of 3D CAD and engineering, we were deeply involved in the development process.”
“We pushed the boundaries of design to ensure the caddie was not only sleek and stylish, but also practical, marketable, manufacturable, and most importantly, adored by golfers.”
Client and company CEO Timothy Doane gave Cardboard Helicopter a rave review:
“The folks from CH were great to work with. They combine a unique blend of creativity, artistic ability, and innovation. Their work helped us create an industry shocking design for our new Tempo Walk product which increased sales from the start. If you are looking for an eye-catching new look you can’t go wrong with CH!”
