The first "GPS + Laser" hybrid rangefinder redefining how golfers see and play the game.
CITY OF INDUSTRY, Calif., Oct. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- MILESEEY Golf proudly announces that its groundbreaking hybrid rangefinder, the GenePro G1, has been featured in TIME's "The Best Inventions of 2025: Special Mentions."
Recognized for its innovative integration of AMOLED full-color touchscreen and built-in global course mapping, the GenePro G1 stands out as a true "GPS + Laser" hybrid that brings a smarter, faster, and more intuitive experience to every golfer's round.
Redefining the Rangefinder Experience
"We didn't just add GPS to a laser rangefinder — we rebuilt how golfers make decisions," said a MILESEEY Golf spokesperson.
"The GenePro G1 lets players see the full picture and hit with confidence, all from one natural motion. It's precision made visible."
Why the GenePro G1 Stands Out
- True Hybrid Experience: Combines a 2.13" AMOLED touchscreen with 43,000+ preloaded global courses, allowing golfers to view hole layouts, hazards, and front/middle/back distances without relying on a phone or watch.
- Professional-Grade Laser Precision: Measures up to 1,300 yards with ±0.5-yard accuracy, featuring vibration feedback and 600-yard flag-lock capability.
- SmartSlope™ Compensation: Factors in slope, temperature, humidity, and altitude to deliver true "play-like" yardages and smarter club choices.
- Ball-to-Pin™ (P2P) Mode: Instantly measure from your ball to the pin even when terrain blocks direct sight lines—speeding up play and aiding pre-shot planning.
- Crystal-Clear Optics: With 6x magnification, 7.5° field of view, and ~90% light transmission, the G1 delivers a bright, steady, and comfortable viewing experience.
International Recognition
TIME highlighted the GenePro G1 as a "high-tech golf rangefinder," emphasizing its AMOLED touchscreen and global course database that merge GPS intelligence with laser precision.
This acknowledgment underscores the growing trend of technology enhancing on-course decision-making — and cements G1's role as a category pioneer.
Availability
The GenePro G1 is now available on the MILESEEY Golf official website and select authorized retailers.

MILESEEY GenePro G1 Named to TIME's "The Best Inventions of 2025: Special Mentions"
MILESEEY GenePro G1 Named to TIME's "The Best Inventions of 2025: Special Mentions"
- Having secured the fully driverless commercial permit in mid-November 2025, the partners have launched fully autonomous ride-hailing service via the AutoGo app.
- Initial operations cover Yas Island, with phased expansion planned for Reem, Al Maryah, and Saadiyat Islands.
- The launch marks a critical step toward the partners' goal of deploying hundreds of vehicles by 2026 and building Abu Dhabi's largest fully driverless fleet.
ABU DHABI, UAE, Jan. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Baidu, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIDU and HKEX: 9888) today announced that its autonomous ride-hailing service, Apollo Go, and AutoGo, a leading UAE-based autonomous mobility company, have officially launched the fully autonomous commercial ride-hailing service in the emirate. The launch of the service, now available via the AutoGo app, marks a major milestone in the commercialization of autonomous driving in the Middle East. The service has launched initially on Yas Island, where users in Abu Dhabi can now download the app to hail fully driverless rides.
The collaboration between Baidu's Apollo Go and K2's AutoGo began in March 2025, when they announced the partnership to build Abu Dhabi's largest fully driverless fleet. Building on that momentum, the companies secured one of the inaugural permits for fully driverless commercial operation in Abu Dhabi in mid-November 2025 and signed a next-phase agreement to scale the fleet to hundreds of vehicles by 2026. With the service now available to the general public through the AutoGo app, the partners are actively advancing their goal of establishing the emirate's largest fully driverless fleet.
"Moving from an initial partnership agreement to launching live, fully driverless operations for the public in a span of just a few months is a remarkable milestone," said Liang Zhang, Managing Director of EMEA at Baidu Apollo. "This speed of execution highlights the technical readiness of Apollo Go, the strong operational capabilities of our partnership, and the steadfast support of local regulatory bodies."
"AutoGo's transition to live robotaxi operations marks an important milestone in Abu Dhabi's autonomous mobility journey," said Sean Teo, Managing Director of K2. "Launching the service at the start of the year reflects our focus on execution and long-term value creation. By introducing robotaxi services in real urban environments and scaling across key districts, we are moving decisively from development to deployment—delivering autonomy that is practical, safe, and ready for everyday use."
The initial operation covers Yas Island, a premier leisure and entertainment hub in Abu Dhabi, now designated as a permitted zone for fully driverless operations. This service allows users to simply download the AutoGo app, request a ride, and experience a journey in a vehicle with no human driver behind the wheel.
Following the initial launch on Yas Island, the service will implement a phased geographic roll-out across Abu Dhabi. The expansion will begin with Reem Island, Al Maryah Island, and Saadiyat Island. Over time, the service will continue to expand across additional areas, with the long-term objective of operating across the wider Abu Dhabi emirate.
Apollo Go's rapid expansion into the UAE is backed by its industry-leading autonomous driving technology and proven real-world operational expertise. As a leading autonomous ride‑hailing service provider globally, Apollo Go has logged more than 240 million autonomous kilometers, of which over 140 million kilometers were completed in fully driverless mode. With a global footprint across 22 cities, Apollo Go's weekly ride count has recently surpassed 250,000, and the service has completed more than 17 million cumulative rides as of October 31, 2025. Looking ahead, Apollo Go and AutoGo will scale fully autonomous commercial ride-hailing services to reach more users and advance Abu Dhabi's smart city vision.
