Simjian's last big improvement to the device was untethering the ball - literally.
Rather than having the ball's flight be measured by a strength, he instead had it measured by a photo-electric cell.
This turned out to be the secret ingredient to make the whole thing work.

This game was first publicly displayed in 1955, running on an analog computer, with a promised commercialization forthcoming.
However, despite having sunk a lot of time into the project, it would not be Simjian's company who made the idea a reality.

Was he aware of Spotlight Golf? We don't know for sure.
However, Louis John Simon's original patent references possibly tracking the ball via a "cinematograph machine" - or camera. This could have sparked an idea in the head of Simjian.

In the 1950s, Simjian worked on two seemingly independent inventions: A large scale projector system and a golf ball striking tracker.
It wasn't long until he had them combined - creating a concept for an indoor golf game for a new era.
