Description

A system producing a playing image in runner's views for the baseball game broadcasting and the recording medium

The present invention relates to an apparatus for generating a baseball game image of a runner's point of view for generating a game image viewed from a runner's point of view from an image of an infield of a baseball field, and a recording medium of the method.

In particular, the present invention relates to a baseball game image generating apparatus and a recording medium of the runner's point of view to adjust the image size of the game image by adjusting the zoom of the camera or the size of the game image itself according to the movement position of the runner. .

In general, a sports event broadcast is transmitted to a broadcasting station through a plurality of relay agents and relay equipment at a site where an athletic event is held, and the broadcast station is a broadcast receiving device such as a television or a radio owned by a general user. Through the sports game progress will be informed.

In the case of broadcasting a sports game through a television, in the process of broadcasting a sports game, the entire stadium is photographed by placing several cameras on the element elements due to the size of the stadium and the characteristics of the game. Therefore, viewers have no choice but to view the screen determined by the broadcaster.

In particular, when broadcasting a real baseball game, only the part of the place where the ball is mostly shot and relays only the screen. Therefore, it is difficult to grasp the position or movement of the entire players by such a screen alone.

In order to solve the problems as described above, a technology that allows the viewer to arbitrarily select a desired viewing point is disclosed in Korean Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-0074508 (August 2001, published), "A method for generating a virtual field of a sports game, and Device "] (hereinafter referred to as prior art 1). The prior art 1 receives original two-dimensional video data from a plurality of pre-selected cameras located at important positions around a sports stadium, and processes the body state of each sports athlete and the like from the original two-dimensional data, and displays the player position information and Create a visual model. Using this, a technique for generating a virtual field (image at any selected point in time) desired by a viewer and transmitting a virtual field image to a remote viewer is proposed. On the other hand, the prior art 1 also includes an auxiliary system and the like for changing the camera position, range, focus and zoom, and storing the processed data for the sporting event.

On the other hand, most broadcasts of baseball games are broadcast video from a third party perspective. In other words, the broadcast broadcasts the game viewed from the audience outside the stadium in the video. But watching the game from the outside of the stadium is very different from watching the game from the inside of the stadium. If you watch the game from the perspective of the players in the stadium, viewers will feel as if they are with the player. As a result, viewers can watch the video more realistically and realistically.

In order to show the game video from the athlete's point of view, the athlete's position must be known. Techniques for tracking the movements of athletes from the game image are disclosed in Korean Patent Publication No. 2007-0083575 (published Aug. 24, 2007), "Image-Based Motion Tracking" (hereinafter, referred to as Prior Art 2).

By applying the prior art 1 and 2, it will be possible to show a game image from the perspective of the player. However, since the prior art 1 has to extract three-dimensional position data, body state of each athlete, and the like from the two-dimensional video data, a lot of computer processing work is required. Therefore, there are problems in that it is difficult to process and broadcast in real time or use expensive computing equipment.

In addition, the prior art 2 may be different from the actual image of the original video received from the stadium camera in the process of generating the virtual field image from the two-dimensional video data. Therefore, even if the viewer can watch the game at a desired time point, the game video has a problem similar to that of a sports electronic game video.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

In addition, in describing this invention, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and the repeated description is abbreviate | omitted.

First, an example of the whole system configuration for implementing this invention is demonstrated with reference to FIG.

As shown in FIG. 1, the entire system for implementing the present invention includes a plurality of photographing apparatuses 11, a game image generating apparatus 30, a position tracking apparatus 50, and a viewer terminal 60. In addition, the game image generating device 30 transmits the game relay image to the viewer terminal 60 through the network 20 via a broadcast server (not shown).

The photographing apparatus 11 is installed in a baseball stadium, and photographs the stadium as cameras 11a to 11g, and sends a game image to the generating device 30. The photographing apparatus 11 may be installed separately from the existing broadcasting photographing apparatus 12 or may use the broadcasting photographing apparatus 12. The photographing apparatus 11 may be configured in various ways.

As shown in FIG. 2, the photographing apparatus 11 is installed outside the baseball stadium 80, and is installed on a straight line connecting the bases 81a, 81b, 81c, and 81d of the baseball field infield to photograph the base point as a focal point. .

The first camera 11a is installed on a straight line connecting the first base 81b from the home base 81a, and focuses on the first base 81b to capture the image. The second camera 11b is provided on a straight line connecting the first base 81b to the second base 81c, and focuses on the second base 81c point to take a picture. In addition, the third and fourth cameras 11c and 11d are provided on straight lines connecting the third base 81d to the second base 81c and the groove base 81a to the third base 81d, respectively. Shoots focusing on the third base 81d point and the home base 81a point.

The first to fourth cameras photograph the runner's career direction. That is, the cameras shoot in the direction of the runner's career direction from the home base to the first base, the first base to the second base, the second base to the third base, and the third base.

Preferably, the camera is also installed in the reverse direction of the runner. That is, in FIG. 2, the 5th camera 11e is installed on the straight line which connects the 1st base 81b to the 2nd base 81c, and focuses on the 1st base 81b point, and is image | photographed. The sixth and seventh cameras 11f and 11g are provided on straight lines connecting the second base 81c to the third base 81d and the third base 81d to the groove base 81a, respectively. The image is focused on the second base 81c point and the third base 81d point.

The fifth to seventh cameras 11e, 11f, and 11g are cameras for photographing a case in which the runner moves back to the next base. For example, if a runner advances to the next base but the defender catches the batter's ball as a fly out, or the next base defender catches the ball first and prepares for the tag, the runner must return to the previous base. Since returning to the home base 81 does not mean much, it is preferable that a camera photographing from the first base to the home base is not installed.

As shown in FIG. 3, the photographing apparatus 11 photographs the base 81 in a downward direction from the outside of the stadium, but photographs the upper part behind the runner 82 that runs between the bases 81. For this reason, the imaging device 11 does not photograph the runner 82 until the runner 82 arrives near the base 81. When the runner arrives near the base 81, it will be captured from the head to the body gradually.

Position tracking device 50 is a device for tracking the position of the players playing in the stadium. That is, the player movement position on the playing field plane is extracted. In particular, the position tracking device 50 extracts the movement position of the runner.

The running position tracking of the runner can be obtained from the image of the stadium. The technique of extracting the position of the athlete from the game image is described in more detail in Korean Patent Application No. 10-2009-0094492 filed on Sep. 23, 2009 filed by the present applicant. The application of the patent application can be applied to determine the moving position of the runner. In addition, the techniques for extracting the position of the athlete can also be applied to the present invention as described in the background art.

The position tracking device 50 calculates the player coordinates representing the position of the player, and calculates the player coordinates on the stadium coordinates in real time in preparation for the stadium coordinates.

The game image generating apparatus 30 receives the game image from the photographing apparatus 11 and adjusts and outputs the image size of the game image according to the moving position of the runner. The game image generating device 30 receives the coordinates of the runner from the position tracking device 50 and calculates a moving position. Alternatively, the calculated movement position of the runner may be immediately received. In particular, since the running position of the runner is a position on the playing field model, it is possible to know from which base to which base the runner runs, and where the positions between the bases are located.

Preferably, the generating device 30 adjusts the size of the image of the game image as the runner 82 approaches the base 81. That is, the game image is zoomed in. As a result, the output image is seen as a screen by the field of view seen by the runner 82.

The method of adjusting the image size of the game image is divided into a method of directly controlling the zoom of the photographing apparatus 11 and a method of adjusting the image size of the game image itself. According to the electronic method, the generator 30 controls the photographing apparatus 11 to further enlarge the zoom of the camera or the like as the runner 82 approaches the base 81.

According to the latter method, the photographing apparatus 11 continuously photographs the game image while fixing the focus and the zoom, and the generating device 30 receives the photographed game image, and the runner 82 approaches the base 81. Increasingly, the game video itself is enlarged.

The image output from the generating device 30 is sent to a broadcast server (not shown). The broadcast server receives images of other cameras installed in the stadium or images output from the generation device 30, and any one of them is selected and broadcasted by the broadcast editor.

That is, the game image generating apparatus 30 selects the generated game image as a relay broadcast image transmitted from the broadcast server, and provides the game image to the viewer terminal 60 through a network 20 such as a broadcasting network. In this case, the game image generating apparatus 30 may provide the viewer terminal 60 with the game image generated through a wired / wireless communication network, for example, an internet network or a mobile communication network, in addition to the broadcasting network.

On the other hand, when the broadcast server provides a broadcast on the web or the medium such as IPTV, interactive TV, etc. on the Internet, a plurality of game images may be simultaneously transmitted, some of which may be selected and output by the viewer.

In addition, the viewer terminal 60 is a stationary / mobile terminal such as a broadcast receiver such as a television or a computer, a laptop, a mobile phone, etc., and is a terminal that receives a broadcast image and displays it on a screen.

Accordingly, the viewer watching the game relay image through the viewer terminal 60 may view the game image generated by the generating device 30 from among the broadcast image. Therefore, viewers can watch the game video from the runner's point of view, and through this, they can watch the lively game felt by the players.

Next, the game image generating apparatus according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

As shown in FIG. 4, the game image generating apparatus 30 according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes a game image receiving unit 31, a runner position receiving unit 32, and a game image adjusting unit 33.

The game image receiving unit 31 receives a game image from the photographing apparatus 11 photographing the base 81 point. As described above, the competition video is a video taken in a straight line connecting two bases.

In addition, the game image receiving unit 31 receives a game image photographed in the direction of the home base from the first base, second base from the first base, second base from the second base, and third base from the first base. As described above, the images are game images photographed by the first to fourth cameras 11a to 11d.

Preferably, the game image receiving unit 31 further receives a game image photographed in the direction of the third base, the third base, the second base, the second base, and the first base. The images are game images photographed by the fifth to seventh cameras 11e to 11g.

The runner position receiving unit 32 receives the runner's moving position. The coordinates of the movement position of the runner among the athletes are obtained by the position tracking device 50, and the runner position receiving unit 32 receives the movement position of the runner from the position tracking device 50.

As another embodiment, the runner position receiving unit 32 may receive a game image photographing the runner and directly obtain the runner's movement position coordinates. In this case, the runner position receiving unit 32 may further include a module (or system) for tracking the movement position of the athlete from the game image.

As shown in Figure 5, the game image adjusting unit 33 adjusts the image size of the game image according to the movement position of the runner. The game image adjusting unit 33 enlarges the image size of the game image in inverse proportion to the distance between the base 81 captured by the photographing apparatus 11 and the moving position of the runner.

The game image controller 33 adjusts the zoom of the photographing apparatus 11 to adjust the image size of the game image. At this time, the game image adjusting unit 33 is provided with a separate camera control module 34 that can control the photographing apparatus 11, such as a camera, and adjusts the zoom of the camera by controlling the camera control module 34.

For example, FIG. 5A is an initial image when the runner 82 has just started from the first base 81b to the second base 81c, and FIG. 5B shows the runner 82 at the first base 81b. This is the last video when the player arrives at the second base 81c.

As shown in FIG. 6, when the runner starts from the first base 81b and moves to the second base 81c, the screen of FIG. 5b is changed from the screen size of FIG. 5a (the screen size of the game image at the first base). The screen is gradually enlarged to the size (screen size of the game video at the base of second base).

Preferably, the zoom ratio Z _d according to the moving position of the runner is as shown in Equation 1 below.

[Equation 1]

Where Z ₁ and Z ₂ are the ratios of the zoom at the starting base and the arriving base, respectively.

D is the distance between the departure base and the arrival base.

d is the distance between the runner's moving position and the arrival base.

On the other hand, the game image adjusting unit 33 outputs the received game image as it is. The game image controller 33 includes a game image output module 35 for outputting a game image.

In addition, the game image adjusting unit 33 selects and adjusts the game image photographed in the direction of the front and rear base 81 in the direction in which the runner 82 moves among the plurality of game images received. For example, when the runner runs the first base 81b on the home base 81a, the game image adjusting unit 33 selects a game image received from the first camera 11a, and the first camera 11a. Adjust the zoom.

Similarly, the runner is the second base 81c at the first base 81b at the home base 81a, the third base 81d at the second base 81c, and the first base 81a at the third base 81d. When running in the direction of, the game image controller 33 selects a game image received from the second to fourth cameras 11a, respectively, and adjusts the zoom of the selected camera.

Therefore, when the runner 82 hits the third base and advances to the third base 81d, while passing the first base 81b and the second base 81c, the game image is the first to third cameras 81a and 81b. 81c) are sequentially selected to enlarge the zoom ratio. The moment when the game image changes is the time when the first base base 81b and the second base 81c are returned.

Meanwhile, if the distance difference between the runner's moving position and the base position is within the minimum distance, the game image adjusting unit 33 selects and adjusts the game image photographing the base point, and moves the runner if the distance difference is greater than the minimum distance. Select and adjust the game image to capture the base point of the movement direction of the position.

When the runners 82 stay at the base 81, there is no need to show a game image from the runner's point of view. Rather, it is desirable to send an image of the base 81 where the runners 82 stay. Therefore, when the runner's moving position is out of a predetermined distance (minimum distance) from the base 81, the next base 81 is switched to the captured game image, and the screen size of the image is adjusted.

Next, a game image generating apparatus according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In the following, the same parts as those in the first embodiment will be omitted. Therefore, the parts omitted in the description of the second embodiment refer to the first embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 7, the game image generating apparatus 30 according to the second embodiment of the present invention includes a game image receiving unit 31, a runner position receiving unit 32, and a game image adjusting unit 33.

The game image receiving unit 31 receives a game image from the photographing apparatus 11 photographing the base 81 point. At this time, the game video is a video taken in a straight line connecting two bases, but the focus of the game video is focused on the base point located behind. In particular, the zoom ratio (or size) of the competition video is fixed.

And the game image controller 33 adjusts the size of the game image itself to adjust the image size of the game image. An image size enlargement module 36 is provided separately to enlarge the size of the game image, and the screen size is adjusted by controlling the image size enlargement module 36.

For example, the game image receiver 31 always receives an image of a fixed size, such as the game image 90 shown in FIG. 8. The portion 90a is cut out of the race image 90 around the image focus, and the portion 90a of the cut race image is enlarged to the original size of the race image to obtain an enlarged image 91a.

As shown in FIG. 9, when the runner starts from the first base 81b and moves to the second base 81c, the screen of the portion of the original game image 90 is gradually reduced and then cut out. Zoom in to the size of the image (90).

Preferably, the size Z _d of the screen cut out according to the moving position of the runner is as shown in Equation 2 below.

[Equation 2]

Z ₁ is the size of the original game video.

Z ₂ is the size of the crop screen at the destination base.

D is the distance between the departure base and the arrival base.

d is the distance between the runner's moving position and the arrival base.

Meanwhile, the game image controller 33 outputs the enlarged game image. The game image controller 33 includes a game image output module 35 for outputting a game image.
