Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a head-up posture prevention method and a potable golf swing adviser using the same,

The present invention relates to a head-up posture analyzing method and a portable golf swing adviser using the same, and more particularly, to a golf swing adviser capable of calibrating a user's swing posture in real time in an actual rounding process as well as practice in a limited space .

Particularly, since the swing posture of the user is measured based on the hit sound of the golf ball, a sufficient correction effect can be obtained even with only one device worn on the user's head. Therefore, Head up posture analysis method capable of continuously correcting head ups and a portable golf swing adviser using the same.

One of the most popular sports in recent years is golf, which is more introverted than other sports, so most of them will receive lessons from experts. After a certain period of lessons, most of them will practice themselves and improve their skills through repeated learning.

However, since it is difficult to directly correct the wrong habits in the process of repeated learning, a separate device is used to correct the swing mechanism. Various techniques are known for such golf swing correcting devices.

For example, in the case of a device for swing posture correction using an image, a swing process is photographed with a CCD camera, and the swing process is visually confirmed and corrected, or compared with the swing of another professional golfer or the standard swing, This will help the user to correct his / her swing posture.

In addition, various sensors can be used to measure the swing trajectory, to confirm the swing attitude of the user, to compare the information with the reference information, and to provide the result, thereby enabling the user to grasp and correct the wrong point in his swing posture .

Particularly, during golf swing, head movement in the course of back through the back swing, down swing and impact after the golf swing precisely hits the golf ball to a desired position It is important to acquire an accurate swing posture because it becomes an important factor.

However, since most of the golf swing correcting devices are used in a predetermined space, there is a great difference between practice in limited space and actual competition in the field. Therefore, in order to correct the swing posture in the actual rounding process, I could not help it.

On the other hand, Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1288348, titled " apparatus and method for golf head posture-preventing golf posture correcting apparatus " described in the following prior art document, ) State in real time so that the user can directly correct the head-up posture.

Therefore, when the prior art is used, it can be expected that the swing attitude of the user in the actual rounding process can be corrected in real time, but the prior art has one drawback.

Most golfers do not wear a watch that interferes with the swing.

However, in the prior art, only the head mounting portion can not be operated independently, and information related to the head-up of the user can be collected only when the hit point is detected by the impact sensor of the wrist mounting portion.

As a result, the prior art is a technique that can not be practically used because the wrist attachment portion worn on the user's wrist adversely affects the swing rather.

Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1288348 " Golf head posture correcting apparatus and method for head-up prevention "

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a head-up posture analysis method capable of real-time correction of a user's swing posture in an actual rounding process as well as practice in a limited space, and a portable golf swing adviser using the method The purpose is to provide.

Particularly, in measuring the swing posture associated with head-up of a user, the present invention measures the swing posture of the user based on the hit sound of the golf ball, rather than measuring the swing posture according to the movement of the arm, The present invention provides a head-up posture analyzing method and a portable golf swing adviser using the same.

In other words, since the present invention can obtain a sufficient correction effect even with only one device worn on the head of the user, it is possible not only to make continuous correction for head-up without interfering with the user's swing mechanism, The present invention provides a head-up posture analysis method and a portable golf swing adviser that can continuously check and manage the degree of improvement of a swing posture and a degree of improvement of a performance according to a correction result.

In order to achieve the above object, a head-up posture analyzing method according to the present invention includes: a hit sound receiving step of receiving a hit sound of a golf ball in an impact process; A head movement checking step of receiving and analyzing a sensing signal of a gyroscope sensor and confirming a head movement of a user based on the received sensing signal; A head-up confirmation step of comparing head movement information including the allowable angular range with the head movement to confirm when the head-up is performed; And a swing attitude determination step of comparing the reference sustain time included in the reference attitude information with the head up time to determine whether the swing attitude is appropriately performed.

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus for analyzing a swing posture, the apparatus comprising:

And a reference posture resetting step of updating the posture information including the currently measured head motion and the head up time to the reference posture information in response to the user's selection.

In addition, if the sensing signal of the gyroscope sensor is received and analyzed prior to the above-mentioned sound receiving step, and the user's head is kept tilted for a predetermined period of time, it is determined that the user's swing has entered the addressing process And an ear check step of preparing for receiving the hit sound.

In addition, the ascertainment step may be performed in a normal deactivated mode (Slip mode) to minimize power usage. If it is determined that the player has entered the address process, the player may switch to an active mode to receive a sound have.

The portable golf swing advisor using the head-up posture analysis method according to the present invention includes: a microphone for receiving a hit sound of a golf ball; A gyroscope sensor for measuring changes in rotation angle and angular velocity; A data processor for checking the movement of the user's head sensed by the gyroscope sensor and comparing the stored reference position information with the stored reference attitude information to determine the suitability of the swing attitude when the hit sound is received by the microphone; And a speaker for outputting the determination result of the data processing unit as a voice or an acoustic signal.

The gyroscope sensor according to claim 1, further comprising: an attitude storage button operated by a user, wherein when the attitude storage button is operated by a user, attitude information including a head movement measured by the gyroscope sensor is stored in the reference attitude It can be saved as information.

The data processing unit may further include a mode selection button that is operated by a user to select an exercise mode by the mode selection button so that the suitability of the swing posture is changed according to the head movement of the user, When the rounding mode is selected by the mode selection button, if the user's head is kept inclined over a predetermined period of time, it is determined that the swing of the user has entered the dragging process. The appropriateness of the swing posture can be judged.

The data processing unit may be configured to switch to an active mode when the start and end buttons are operated by a user so as to change a state of a user who is confirmed after receiving the hit sound The suitability of the swing posture is determined according to the head movement, and the start and end buttons can be switched to the inactive mode (Slip mode) when the user re-operates the start and end buttons.

The data processing unit may match and store the appropriate number of ratios of the respective rounds of the round and the appropriate swing attitude according to the operation of the score recording button.

According to the above-mentioned solution, the present invention has an advantage that it is possible not only to practice in a limited space, but also to correct a swing posture of the user, particularly a swing posture related to head-up, in real time in the actual rounding process.

In addition, when the swing mechanism most suitable for the user is found, the present invention has the advantage of being able to practice the swing posture optimized for itself by setting the measurement data at the time of the swing as the reference posture information.

In particular, in measuring the swing posture associated with head-up of a user, the swing posture of the user is measured based on the hit sound of the golf ball, rather than measuring the swing posture according to the movement of the arm. There is an advantage to be able to optimize.

Accordingly, the present invention is advantageous in that it is possible to calibrate the head-up without interfering with the swing mechanism of the user, because a sufficient correction effect can be obtained even with only one device worn on the user's head.

In addition, the present invention has an advantage in that it is possible to consistently check and manage the degree of improvement of the swing attitude according to the calibration result as well as the swing attitude correction by accumulating and managing measurement data.

The method for analyzing the head-up posture according to the present invention and the example of the portable golf swing adviser using the method can be applied variously, and the most preferred embodiment will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart showing an embodiment of a head-up attitude analysis method according to the present invention, and FIGS. 2 and 3 are views for explaining a swing mechanism applied to FIG.

Referring to FIG. 1, the head-up posture analysis method includes a sound receiving step S100, a head motion confirmation step S200, a head-up confirmation step S300, and a swing posture determination step S400.

As shown in FIG. 2, the swing posture includes an address S1, a back swing S2, a top of swing S3, a down swing S4, an impact S5, ), Follow through (S6), and Finish (S7).

At this time, since most novice viewers move along the ball after the impact S5, there is a problem that the head-up progresses rapidly.

In other words, as shown in FIG. 3, the preferred head shoe size should not be shifted from the impact S5 to just before the finish S7, and head-up should be performed smoothly as the club moves back and forth during the finishing step S7 .

As a result, it can be said that it is important to prevent head-up from occurring in the step S6 after the impact S5.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the present invention uses an adviser (Adviser) 100 capable of attaching and detaching in the form of a clip on the user's hat to inform the user about the posture of each swing , It is possible to correct the head-up posture.

For this purpose, as shown in FIG. 1, in the impact sound receiving step S100, a hit sound of a golf ball is received in an impact process S5 during a golf swing process. Thus, the present invention can confirm the time when a blow is performed without using a separate sensor or a device.

The head movement confirmation step (S200) confirms the head movement of the user using the adviser (100) after the hit sound is received. For example, the head movement of the user may be identified by receiving and analyzing the sensing signal of a gyroscope sensor configured within the advisor 100. In addition, acceleration sensors and the like can be configured according to the needs of those skilled in the art, and sensors can be added at a level that can ensure portability and miniaturization.

The head-up confirmation step S300 is a step of comparing the reference position information including the allowable angle range with the head movement to check the time at which the head-up is made. The time point when the movement of the head exceeds the allowable angle range is referred to as a head- It can be judged. Here, the allowable angle range may include a range of motion of the natural head due to the swing from the backswing S2 to the follower S6 as shown in Fig. 2, with the user's line of sight facing the ground (golf ball) . In other words, an allowable angular range can be set within a certain range based on the arbitrary position S1 shown in Fig.

As described above, since the physical characteristics that naturally move according to the swing trajectory vary from person to person, it is most important to find a swing mechanism best suited to the swing mechanism and practice on the basis of the swing mechanism, which will be described in more detail below.

In the swing attitude determination step S400, the reference holding time included in the reference attitude information is compared with the head-up time to determine whether the swing attitude has been appropriately made. Lt; / RTI >

For example, it is possible to compare the reference attitude information with measurement data, and to divide the swing attitude of the current user into optimum, normal, good, bad, and worst conditions according to the error, and output a voice message .

More specifically, if the swing posture of the user is determined to be optimal, a voice message such as 'very good shot' or 'bravo' can be outputted by a woman's voice. If the swing posture of the user is determined to be the worst A male voice can output voice messages such as 'Learn from the basics again' and 'hit straight'.

In addition, it is possible to output a voice message such as 'getting better', 'getting better but feel better' and 'ability is better' by comparing the measurement data of the past several times in addition to the standard posture information.

Therefore, the user can calibrate his or her swing posture by simply wearing the adviser 100 on a cap or the like, and interest is generated through various voice messages.

4 is a flowchart showing another embodiment of FIG.

Referring to FIG. 4, the head-up attitude analysis method according to the present invention may further include an analysis result notification step S500 and a reference attitude reset step S600.

According to the determination result of the swing attitude determination step (S400), the analysis result notification step (S500) informs the user of the degree of the adequacy of the user's swing posture. As described above, The degree of suitability can be set by dividing into a plurality of levels.

For example, the degree of appropriateness can be divided into five levels as optimal, normal, good, bad, and worst, as described above, and can be set to 'Bravo', 'Good shot', 'Nice shot' , &Quot; Please repeat from the beginning ", or the like.

These voice messages can be set to voices of men or women of various ages to positively induce the user's interest.

In the reference posture resetting step S600, the posture information including the currently measured head motion and the head-up time corresponding to the user's selection can be updated to the reference posture information.

For example, the user confirms the result of the judgment about the swing just before via the voice message, and if the result of the analysis of the measurement data and the rhythmic sense of the swing actually felt to him is good (for example, Step-optimal or step-two-step error), the measurement data related to the swing can be set as the reference posture information suitable for the swing.

Thus, by practicing based on the standard posture information set suitably for the user, it is possible to learn the swing mechanism optimized for the user.

On the other hand, in the case where two or more golfers perform rounding together, it is necessary to exclude a sound generated when a golfer hits another golfer in order to correct the swing posture of the user.

Hereinafter, a method of determining a swing posture of a user by excluding only a hit sound of another golfer and checking only a user's hit sound will be described.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing another embodiment of FIG. 1, and FIG. 6 is a view for explaining steps 'S20' and step 'S300' shown in FIG.

Referring to FIG. 5, the method for analyzing the head-up posture according to the present invention may include a mode setting step (S10) and an ascertainment step (S20) prior to the sound receiving step (S100).

The mode setting step S10 is a process of setting the operation of the adviser 100 by the user to the practice mode or the rounding mode. In the case of setting the practice mode, all of the generated sounds generated as shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. The head-up posture of the user can be analyzed. In the case of setting the rounding mode, the golf ball can be subjected to the horse check step (S20) to exclude the hit sounds from other golfers.

The arc check step S20 is for judging whether or not the user is in the course of the address S1 shown in Fig.

Accordingly, the advisor 100 of the present invention can determine the hit sound after the address S1 as a hit sound due to the swing of the user.

More specifically, the address checking step S20 receives and analyzes the sensing signal of the gyroscope sensor 120 configured in the advisor 100, When the tilted state [theta] 1 is maintained, it can be determined that the swing of the user has entered the drag S1 process.

At this time, the advisor 100 can be switched from an inactive mode (Slip mode) to an active mode (Active mode) on the basis of a time point at which the user enters the address S1 process. For example, the advisor 100 operates in a normally-inactive mode (Slip mode) to minimize power usage. If the advisor 100 determines that the user has entered the address process by the address checking step S20, mode) so as to be able to receive the hit sound.

6 (b), when the measurement data of the gyroscope sensor 120 deviates from the allowable angle range 2 (? 4) through the steps shown in FIG. 1 or 4, It can be determined that the head-up has occurred.

In FIG. 6B, '? 3' is an allowable angle up to the instant of impact S5 in the course of the backswing S2 shown in FIG. 2, and does not necessarily correspond to half of the allowable angle range? 2, Can be adjusted in response to the physical characteristics of the user.

Therefore, the present invention can confirm and determine the swing posture of the user on the basis of the hit sound, so that the user can learn the optimal swing mechanism for him / herself.

Hereinafter, the advisor 100 shown in Figs. 2 and 3 will be described in detail.
