Embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. In the present embodiment,
A description will be given as an amusement device that realizes a puzzle game in which an image of a predetermined size is divided into a plurality of piece-shaped objects and the original image is restored by combining the piece-shaped objects. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a game device according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, a game device according to the present embodiment is a user (player).
Tiles 10 operated by the user, a recognition video input unit 20 that captures the tiles 10, and a recognition video input unit 2
0, a state recognition unit 30 for recognizing the state of the tile 10 based on the image input, a display image input unit 40 for inputting a display image, and an image and state input by the display image input unit 40. An image construction unit 50 that generates a puzzle game image by associating the state of the tile 10 recognized by the recognition unit 30 with a display unit 60 that displays an image generated by the image construction unit. In FIG. 1, only the characteristic configuration of the present embodiment is described, and the description of other general configurations is omitted. In the amusement device of the present embodiment, a piece-shaped object corresponding to a puzzle piece is displayed on the display unit 60, and the piece-shaped object is associated with the tile 10. The user (player) combines the piece-shaped objects by appropriately arranging the tiles 10 while referring to the display image on the display unit 60, and restores a predetermined image. In the above configuration, the tile 10 is a tool for inputting the position and orientation of the piece-shaped object. Although the size and shape of the tiles 10 can be arbitrarily set to a certain degree, the size is such that the user (player) can easily move and change the direction, and all the tiles 10 are combined to have a fixed shape. (A square, a triangle, a circle, etc.). Each tile 10 is given a unique feature so that the individual tile 10 can be specified. For example, each tile 10 is color-coded, or a different pattern or a unique identification mark is attached to the surface. Also, not all tiles 10 need be the same size and shape. However, if all the tiles 10 have the same size and shape, the user (player) can determine an appropriate arrangement of the tiles 10 for restoring the original image with the piece-shaped object just by looking at the tiles 10. Since the tiles 10 cannot be found and the tiles 10 must be arranged with reference to the image of the piece-shaped object displayed on the display unit 60, the difficulty level as a game can be increased, and high entertainment can be provided. As an example, all tiles 1
0 may be a square of the same size, and the tiles 10 may be arranged in rows and columns to restore a square image. Also, all tiles 10 need to be placed at a fixed position with respect to the recognition video input unit 20 as described later. Specifically, for example, a fixed work area such as a work table is set, and the tiles 10 are arranged in the work area. The recognition video input unit 20 is a video camera that shoots the tile 10. The captured video is sent to the state recognition unit 30. Since the state of the tiles 10 is recognized based on the video captured by the recognition video input unit 20, the relative positional relationship between the recognition video input unit 20 and the tiles 10 is limited. As described above, when arranging the tiles 10 in a predetermined work area, the recognition video input unit 20 is installed at a position where the entire work area can be photographed. For example, the work area can be installed at a position looking down from directly above, or the work surface of the work table can be configured using a transparent member such as glass so that the tile 10 can be installed from below. Further, the recognition video input unit 20 can be constituted by a plurality of video cameras. In this case, the image of the tile 10 can be reliably acquired without a blind spot occurring due to the position or posture of the user (player). Furthermore, the video camera constituting the recognition video input unit 20 may be installed not only fixedly at a predetermined position but also so as to be appropriately moved with respect to the work area. In this case, the state recognition unit 3
In order to recognize the state of the tile 10 based on 0, it is necessary to provide the state recognition unit 30 with the relative positional relationship between the work area and the video camera as information. The state recognition unit 30 processes the video captured by the recognition video input unit 20 and calculates information on the status of each tile 10. As the information on the state of the tile 10, a position, an orientation, front and back, and the like can be defined. Here, a case where the position and the orientation of the tile 10 are calculated as information relating to the state of the tile 10 will be described. The tile 10
Are color-coded in advance so as to be separated from the background color and distinguishable from each other. When calculating the position of the tile 10, the state recognition unit 30 uses the information on the shape and the color of the tile 10 stored in advance to select the tile 1 from the video of the work area received from the recognition video input unit 20.
Identify 0. That is, tile 10
By recognizing the shape of the tile 10, the area occupied by the shape of the tile 10 on the work area can be determined. Further, by identifying the color of each tile 10 in the video, each tile 10 can be distinguished.
By these processes, each tile 10 on the work area is
Can be calculated individually. In addition, as a method of image processing for recognizing a predetermined shape or color in a video,
Conventionally, a method generally used in image processing technology can be appropriately used. Further, when a plurality of video cameras constituting the recognition video input unit 20 are installed, or when the video cameras are dynamically installed with respect to the work area,
It goes without saying that the relative positional relationship between the work area and the video camera also needs to be considered. When calculating the orientation of the tile 10, the state recognition unit 30 specifies the orientation of the tile 10 using the shape of the tile 10 and an identification mark provided on the surface. For example, when the shape of the tile 10 is a square, the orientation cannot be specified from the shape,
As shown in FIG. 2, a mark for identifying the direction is attached to the surface of the tile 10, and the direction of the tile 10 is specified according to the shape and position of the mark in the image of the tile 10. In the example of FIG. 2, since the mark 11 is attached to a position biased to one side of the square tile 10, the mark 11
Is detected, and furthermore, the relative position of the mark 11 on the tile 10 (which side is close) is obtained, whereby the orientation of the tile 10 can be specified. In addition, if an arrow or other graphic that can specify the direction is attached as a pattern on the surface of the tile 10, the orientation of the tile 10 can be specified by identifying the direction by performing image processing on the graphic. Furthermore, tile 10
A pattern capable of describing predetermined information, such as a two-dimensional barcode, may be attached to the surface of the image, and the direction of the tile 10 may be specified by decoding the information from the pattern. in this case,
The information described in the pattern can be used for identifying each tile 10. Needless to say, the identification mark or pattern is attached to the surface of the tile 10 on the side where the recognition video input unit 20 shoots. When the shape of the tile 10 is such that the orientation can be specified (for example, an isosceles triangle), it is not necessary to attach the above-described identification mark or pattern to the tile 10 and image processing is performed on the shape of the tile 10 itself. By doing so, the orientation can be specified. By providing the same pattern on both sides of the tile 10, the front and back sides of the tile 10 can be prevented from affecting the game. That is, even if the tile 10 is accidentally turned over while being moved, the game can be continued without turning the tile 10 upside down. On the contrary, as shown in FIG.
If the state recognition unit 30 acquires the information on the front and back of the tile 10 as the state information, the image to be restored differs depending on which of the front and back of the tile 10 is selected. , A complicated game can be realized. The display image generation unit 40 is a device that generates a display image used for an original image of a puzzle, that is, an image to be restored by combining piece-shaped objects. As the display image, an image obtained by reproducing predetermined image data (one frame of a still image or a moving image) prepared for a puzzle, or an arbitrary mechanically generated pattern can be used. If the display image generation unit 40 is configured to include a camera, and the face (or body) of the user (player) is photographed and used as a display image, the user (player)
Can enjoy the puzzle created from the image of himself / herself, which can enhance the interest of the user (player). The image construction unit 50 generates a piece-shaped object, and controls the position and the direction of the piece-shaped object. The control of the piece-shaped object will be described in detail. First, pieces of the same number of pieces are generated as the number of tiles 10. Then, the display image generated by the display image generation unit 40 is divided according to the number of tiles 10 and attached to each piece-shaped object. Next, the generated piece-shaped objects are associated with the tiles 10 on a one-to-one basis. Further, a correspondence between the direction of the associated tile 10 and the direction of the piece-shaped object is determined. Next, the position and orientation of each piece-shaped object are determined based on the state of the tile 10 calculated by the state recognition unit 30. After this,
When the user (player) moves or changes the direction of the tile 10, the position and the direction of the corresponding piece-shaped object are changed according to the change in the state of the tile 10 calculated by the state recognition unit 30. To control. In addition,
The shape of the piece-shaped object is, in principle, tile 10
And the same shape. However, if the piece-shaped objects and the tiles 10 have different shapes, the tiles 10 must be arranged in a state where the pieces 10 are out of order in order to correctly arrange the piece-shaped objects, thereby increasing the difficulty of the game. , Can give high entertainment. The display unit 60 is a CRT display device or a projector device, and displays the piece-shaped object generated by the image construction unit 50. The user (player) enjoys the puzzle game by referring to the video displayed on the display unit 60 and moving the tiles 10 so that the piece-shaped objects are appropriately arranged and the desired image is displayed. Can be. Therefore, the display unit 60 needs to be installed at a position where it is easy for the user (player) to visually recognize the work of arranging the tiles 10 and does not hinder the work. Next, a typical operation procedure of a game realized by the present embodiment will be described. The game described in this operation example is a puzzle game in which four square piece-shaped objects are arranged in two columns and two columns to restore a square image. Tile 1
0 is the same square as the piece-shaped object, and four pieces are prepared. In this operation example, the tile 10
It is assumed that an operation of turning over the tile 10 is not required by using only one side. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of a display image, that is, an image to be restored in the puzzle game of this operation example. As shown, image 400 is 4
Is divided into four partial images, and each partial image is attached to four piece-shaped objects 401, 402, 403, and 404. Also, four piece-shaped objects 401,
402, 403, and 404 are associated with the four tiles 10. Specifically, four tiles 10 are
a, tile 10b, tile 10c, tile 10d,
Piece-shaped object 401 is associated with tile 10a, piece-shaped object 402 is associated with tile 10b, piece-shaped object 403 is associated with tile 10c, and piece-shaped object 404 is associated with tile 10a.
and d. Also, each tile 10a, 10b, 1
0c, 10d directions and piece-shaped objects 401, 4
The correspondence with the directions of 02, 403, and 404 is also determined individually. Note that the piece-shaped object 401,
The directions of 402, 403, and 404 follow the directions of the partial images attached to the piece-shaped objects 401, 402, 403, and 404, respectively. FIG. 5 shows four tiles 10
It is a figure showing the example of the state where a, 10b, 10c, and 10d were arranged randomly. FIG. 6 shows the image construction unit 50
Piece-shaped objects 401, 402, 403, 40 associated with the tiles 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a state in which No. 4 is displayed on a display unit 60. The piece-shaped objects 401, 402, 403,
The position and orientation of 404 correspond to the tiles 10a, 1a shown in FIG.
0b, 10c, and 10d.
The tiles 10a, 10b, 10c, and 10d are randomly arranged as shown in FIG.
Display units 402, 403, and 404 are displayed as shown in FIG.
Is the initial state. The game is started from this state, and the user (player) freely moves the tiles 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d while referring to the display unit 60, and
403 and 404 are arranged in a desired arrangement. If the piece-shaped objects 401, 402, 403, and 404 are appropriately arranged and the image 400 shown in FIG.
The game ends. In the case of the examples shown in FIGS.
The image 400 is restored by arranging the tiles 10a, 10b, 10c, and 10d as shown in FIG. In addition,
Correspondence relationship between tiles 10a, 10b, 10c, and 10d and piece-shaped objects 401, 402, 403, and 404, and correspondence between the orientation of tiles 10a, 10b, 10c, and 10d and the orientation of piece-shaped objects 401, 402, 403, and 404 The relationship can be determined anew and irregularly each time the game is played. As a result, the user (player) cannot get used to the proper arrangement of the tiles 10a, 10b, 10c, and 10d, and must perform trial and error every time the game is played, so that the entertainment as a game is enhanced. It will be. Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 8 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the game device according to the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, a cubic block 70 is used instead of a tile as a tool for inputting the position and orientation of a piece-shaped object.
The main functions of the recognition video input unit 20, the state recognition unit 30, the display image generation unit 40, the image construction unit 50, and the display unit 60 are the same as those of the respective components in the first embodiment shown in FIG. Same as function. Therefore, the description of the main functions and operations will be omitted by assigning the same reference numerals, and only the additional yesterday and operations associated with setting the input tool to the block 70 will be described. The size of the block 70 can be arbitrarily set to some extent, but is set to such a size that the user (player) can easily move or change the direction. In addition, the blocks 70 have the same size and can be stacked not only in a plane but also in the height direction. Each block 70 is provided with a unique feature so that the individual block 70 can be specified. For example, each block 70 is color-coded, or a different pattern or a unique identification mark is added to the surface. Further, each block 70
Each surface is given a unique feature so that the six surfaces can be identified. For example, each surface is color-coded, or a different pattern or a unique identification mark is attached to each surface. Thus, each state of the block 70 can be specified in the state recognition unit 30. As described above in the first embodiment, when the tile 10 is used as the input tool, the front and back of the tile 10 can be identified so that the tile 10 can be restored according to which of the front and back is selected and arranged. A complex game with different images to be achieved could be realized. In the present embodiment, the block 70 is used instead of the tile as an input tool, and each surface of the block 70 can be specified as described above. Can be identified. Therefore, by associating different images with each surface of the cubic block 70, it is possible to restore six types of images depending on which surface of the block 70 is selected and arranged. It is possible to realize a complicated game that is much more difficult than when a tile is used as an input tool. Furthermore, since the blocks 70 can be stacked, for example, a puzzle game that restores two types of images simultaneously on the upper and lower surfaces of a cube or a rectangular parallelepiped formed by stacking the blocks 70 in two stages, It is also possible to realize a complicated puzzle game in which different images are made to correspond to respective surfaces of a cube or a rectangular parallelepiped formed by stacking, and six types of images are simultaneously restored. In addition, all the blocks 70 need to be located at fixed positions with respect to the recognition video input unit 20. Specifically, for example, a three-dimensional work space is set, and the blocks 70 are arranged in the space. The recognition video input unit 20 is a video camera that shoots a block 70, similar to the recognition video input unit 20 according to the first embodiment illustrated in FIG. As described above, when a puzzle game in which a plurality of types of images are simultaneously restored on a plurality of surfaces formed by stacking the blocks 70 is realized, an image of the block 70 on each surface on which an image is to be restored can be acquired. Thus, it is necessary to install a plurality of video cameras. For example, when implementing a puzzle game in which two types of images are simultaneously restored on the upper surface and the lower surface of a cube or a rectangular parallelepiped formed by stacking the blocks 70 in two stages, a video camera that captures the upper surface and the lower surface It is necessary to install a video camera to shoot the side.
The image construction unit 50 generates a three-dimensional piece-shaped object corresponding to the block 70 (hereinafter, referred to as a three-dimensional piece-shaped object), and controls the position and the direction. The shape of each three-dimensional piece-shaped object is a cube. Further, the image construction unit 50 divides the display image generated by the display image generation unit 40 according to the number of the blocks 70 and pastes the display image on a predetermined surface of each three-dimensional piece object. Therefore, a maximum of six types of display images are attached to each surface of each three-dimensional piece-shaped object. When displaying the three-dimensional piece-shaped object on the display unit 60, for example, a divided image obtained by dividing the image to be restored is projected onto each surface of each three-dimensional piece-shaped object using a technique such as texture mapping. Can be displayed. Block 7
Assuming each surface of a cube or a rectangular parallelepiped formed by combining 0, images taken of the above-described work space from the side of the surface can be displayed side by side. In this case, the overall orientation of the cube or the rectangular parallelepiped formed by combining the blocks 70 is restricted according to the installation position of the video camera constituting the recognition video input unit 20. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a state in which two blocks 70 are arranged, and FIG. 10 is a perspective view showing a cube formed by combining eight blocks 70. FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating a state in which an image obtained by dividing the display image is pasted on a predetermined surface of the three-dimensional piece-shaped object corresponding to the block 70 in FIG. 9 by texture mapping.
FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a state in which a display image is pasted on a predetermined surface of a three-dimensional piece-shaped object corresponding to the block 70 arranged as shown in FIG. 10 by texture mapping. Although FIGS. 11 and 12 show an example in which an image is displayed only on one surface of the cube for simplicity, it is needless to say that the image can be similarly displayed on other surfaces by using a technique such as texture mapping. No. Although the present invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments, the present invention is not necessarily limited to the above embodiments. For example, in the above-described embodiment, an example has been described in which a puzzle game for restoring a predetermined image by combining piece-shaped objects is realized. The present invention can be applied to various games in which an answer is obtained by appropriately controlling the position and orientation of a piece-shaped object, such as a game such as matching.

As described above, according to the amusement device of the present invention, as a tool for inputting the positions and orientations of a plurality of piece-shaped objects displayed on the display device,
Since tiles and blocks provided corresponding to the piece-shaped objects are used, and changes in the positions and orientations of the tiles and blocks are reflected in the positions and orientations in the piece-shaped objects, the piece-shaped objects are intuitively operated. And inputting the position and orientation of the game device, which has the effect of realizing an interesting and entertaining game device.
