The Trackman Radar system tracks a golf ball's trajectory, providing details of its velocity and path, as well as the club head speed.
The system tracks the ball during its flight time (approximately 6-7 seconds) and within half a second can give information about the ball's launch.
Tee shots on two holes will be recorded throughout the Championship: a driving hole (the 16th on the first two days and then the 5th after the cut) and a par three (the 6th).
Barbara Slater, BBC head of general sports, said: "The BBC is continuing its commitment in meeting the needs of viewers by offering them more choice in when and where they access their sport.
"Our relationship with the Royal and Ancient enables us to bring viewers the latest in technology that will enhance their experience of watching golf on the BBC."
