Abstract

The invention relates to an apparatus physically having the appearance of a calculator provided with a small printer and comprising nine keys. The apparatus is therefore portable; it is intended to follow the golf player around the course, so as to record, after each stroke, the characteristics of this stroke and, at the end of the game, by virtue of the technical possibilities offered by the electronics, to enable the performance achieved in the course of the preceding game to be shown and thus analysed.

Description

CALCULATEUR D'ANALYSE STATISTIQUE DES COUPS DU JEU DE GOLF
Depuis plusieurs années se sont développées les calculatrices portables puis les appareils permettant de procéder à des saises de données sur le terrain, éléments qui sont ensuite transmis à un ordinateur en vue de leur traitement. Cette souplesse extrême est en effet requise dans certaines applications tout à fait particu lières. (Chantiers, aéroports, triages ferroviaires par exemple).
GOLF GAME STATISTICAL ANALYSIS CALCULATOR
For several years, portable calculators have been developed, followed by devices allowing data to be entered in the field, elements which are then transmitted to a computer for processing. This extreme flexibility is indeed required in certain very particular applications. (Construction sites, airports, rail yards for example).

Le jeu de golf, s'il répond à des considérations sportives, fait aussi largement appel à des notions techniques, ainsi le joueur dispose d'un certain nombre de clubs, chacun répondant le mieux au lcoup à frapper. Sur le terrain, le joueur utilise celui qui lui parait le plus adapté. Le joueur peut, en compétition ou à titre individuel procéder à un relevé de ses performances en fonction du club utilisé, dans l'état actuel de la technique, aucun procédé mécanisé n'est à sa disposition.The game of golf, if it responds to sporting considerations, also draws heavily on technical notions, so the player has a certain number of clubs, each one responding best to the stroke to hit. On the field, the player uses the one that seems most suitable to him. The player can, in competition or individually carry out a statement of his performances according to the club used, in the current state of the technique, no mechanized process is at his disposal.

L'invention permet de manière beaucoup plus pratique (plus de crayon, plus de papier sensible aux intempéries) le joueur emporte simplement un clavier à touches sur lequel il va entrer les caractéristiques des différents coups et pourra établir plus tard un bilan de son parcours.The invention makes it much more practical (more pencil, more weather-sensitive paper) the player simply takes a keyboard with keys on which he will enter the characteristics of the different strokes and can later establish a balance sheet of his course.

La machine golf se compose de deux parties qui sont destinées à être désolidarisées lors de l'utilisation, - d'une part un boitier comprenant un écran de 2x40 caractères: écran LCD à cristaux liquides, et sur le même module, un clavier à neuf touches; - une imprimante thermique d'une largeur de 40 caractères.The golf machine consists of two parts which are intended to be separated during use, - on the one hand a box comprising a 2x40 character screen: LCD liquid crystal screen, and on the same module, a new keyboard keys; - a thermal printer with a width of 40 characters.

Le boitier s'emporte sur le terrain, imprimante; au moins dans l'état actuel de la technique n'étant pas portable. Il faut donc ajouter que le premier boitier est alimenté de façon autonome (piles)
La machine est constituée d'une carte électronique sur mesure comprenant un microprocesseur 280 et un certain nombre de composants électroniques intégrés dont la liste limitative est donnée ci-après - un 8255 - 4 X 74 LS - une capacité de 100 microfarads - une série de résistances et de capacités - un cristal de 3,57 Mghz
Le tout étant placé sur un circuit imprimé, alimenté par batterie fonctionnant avec une imprimante thermique de 32 caractères de largeur, comme il a été dit plus haut, cette imprimante étant non graphique.
The box is carried on the ground, printer; at least in the current state of the art not being portable. It must therefore be added that the first box is powered independently (batteries)
The machine consists of a tailor-made electronic card comprising a microprocessor 280 and a number of integrated electronic components, the exhaustive list of which is given below - an 8255 - 4 X 74 LS - a capacity of 100 microfarads - a series of resistances and capacities - a crystal of 3.57 Mghz
The whole being placed on a printed circuit, powered by battery operating with a thermal printer of 32 characters in width, as was said above, this printer being non-graphic.

L'intelligence de la machine est constituée par un EPROM de 128
Kbits dans lequel on enregistre tout le programme appelé " programme machine.
The intelligence of the machine is constituted by an EPROM of 128
Kbits in which the whole program called "machine program is saved.

Le programme servant à l'analyse du jeu par le golfeur étant qualifié de programme d'application.The program used to analyze the game by the golfer being qualified as an application program.

Avant le début du jeu, l'utilisateur introduit trois données: - la nature de la surface utilisée: parcours ou practice, - l'état climatique "l'atmosphère", - le club (bois ou fer) et dans ce dernier cas le numéro utilisé.Before the start of the game, the user enters three data: - the nature of the surface used: course or practice, - the climatic condition "the atmosphere", - the club (wood or iron) and in the latter case the number used.

Après chaque coup, le joueur introduit le résultat dudit coup au moyen des trois indications suivantes: - les caractéristiques de l'impact, - la direction de frappe, - la longueur du coup.After each stroke, the player enters the result of said stroke by means of the following three indications: - the characteristics of the impact, - the strike direction, - the length of the stroke.

a la demande, ou en fin de parcours, la machine permet d'obtenir l'analyse statistique du jeu en fonction des paramètres fournis. on request, or at the end of the course, the machine provides statistical analysis of the game according to the parameters provided.

Pour la réalisation, il faut, outre les éléments indiqués plus haut disposer à la fois: d'une imprimante thermique de quarante colonnes, d'un boitier comprenant un écran 2x40 colonnes LCD à cristaux liquides et d'un clavier à neuf boutons ainsi que d'une alimentation qui se fera au moyen de piles.For the realization, it is necessary, in addition to the elements indicated above, to have at the same time: a thermal printer of forty columns, a box comprising a 2x40 column LCD liquid crystal screen and a keyboard with nine buttons as well as a supply which will be done by batteries.

La partie électronique comprenant un microprocesseur 280 et une interface imprimante.The electronic part comprising a microprocessor 280 and a printer interface.

La partie électronique comprenant aussi une RAM et un EPROM dans lequel se trouve le programme.The electronic part also includes a RAM and an EPROM in which the program is located.

Par nature, l'invention ne semble pas susceptible d'application industrielle, son domaine est celui du jeu, même si ses développements sont susceptibles d'être d'être importants compte tenu de l'importance prise par ce jeu. By nature, the invention does not seem susceptible of industrial application, its field is that of the game, even if its developments are likely to be significant taking into account the importance assumed by this game.
