Description

The present invention relates to a live system that can grasp a game situation of a game using a polyhedral ball such as soccer.

Conventionally, in a sports scene on a wide competition field such as soccer,
A system has been proposed in which a moving object such as a ball or a player is identified and the positional relationship is detected, and the progress of the game is recorded and determined.

JP 7-56990 A JP, 2006-40052, A As such a system, there is a technique indicated by patent documents 1, for example. In this technique, while attaching a tag which transmits ID data to objects, such as a player and a ball, ground ( A number of reader / writers that receive and recognize ID data are arranged and embedded in the competition field), the ID data is detected by these reader / writers, and the ID data is collected to determine the position of each player and ball. judge.

In addition, for example, in the technique disclosed in Patent Document 2, the number of ID identification means such as a leader writer is used when detecting the identification and positional relationship of a moving object such as a ball or a player in a sports scene on a wide competition field. In order to reduce the system construction cost, the object ID signal specific to the object 51- is transmitted from the wireless IC tag of the object, and a large number of antennas arranged in the soccer competition field An arbitrary antenna is selectively connected to the reader / writer, and in the position information determination device, the object ID signal read from the antenna is acquired,
It describes that the antenna that has received the object ID signal is identified and the position of the object is determined.

However, there is a problem that it is difficult to determine at which timing the ball is kicked and goal is achieved only by using the position information detection system disclosed in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 described above. In addition, if the player simply adds a point based on whether or not the ball has been scored, there is a fear that the player or the spectator will not be able to watch the game with interest and will be bored.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and not only detects the positional relationship of balls in a sports scene on a wide playing field,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a system capable of detecting exciting game development and keeping the audience bored by performing other detections together.

Therefore, in the present invention, a radio transmitter is provided inside a polyhedral ball used for soccer or the like, and a sensor for detecting the pressure applied to the ball is provided near the surface of the ball.
Further, the wireless transmitter transmits a three-dimensional coordinate indicating where the ball is positioned, and determines that a point has been added when it is determined that the position is within the goal. Further, it is configured to determine which surface of the polyhedral ball has been kicked, and to add points according to the surface when adding points.

First of all, a radio transmitter is provided on the inner surface of the polyhedral ball, and a sensor for detecting the impact applied to the ball is provided, so that the three-dimensional coordinates of the ball can be always grasped and the ball is kicked, etc. And can accurately detect the impact.
Second, when it is detected whether or not the ball is positioned in the goal (goaled), points are added according to which surface of the ball is kicked, so that it is possible to enjoy an exciting game.

These are the transmission perspective views of the polyhedron ball in the present invention. These are the control flowcharts in this invention.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a soccer ball as an example of a polyhedral ball. This polyhedron is a 32-hedron, and is constituted by a combination of a regular hexagonal surface and a regular pentagonal surface.
In the above description, the ball is a 32-hedron, but is not limited to a 32-hedron, and may be another polyhedron as long as it is a polyhedron and has a shape suitable for ball games.

Inside the ball, a coordinate sensor and radio transmitter 2 is provided for transmitting a polyhedral ball position and specifying the position of the polyhedral ball.
At least four or more antennas are arranged in a game (for example, soccer) field (ground). Since the distance from each antenna (receiver) is known,
The position (vertical / horizontal / height) of the polyhedral ball can be obtained.
A pressure sensitive sensor 1 is provided near the surface of the ball. In this embodiment, the piezoelectric sensor is used. However, any sensor having a function of detecting which of the polyhedrons of the ball has been hit is sufficient. For example, not only a piezoelectric sensor but also an electrostatic sensor or an acoustic sensor may be used.
Reference numeral 3 denotes a spring or rubber-like sensor support member that elastically supports the pressure-sensitive sensor.

The control flow of the present invention will be described as follows based on FIG. In step S1, the position of the ball (three-dimensional position information xyz) is acquired by the position sensor.
This information is transmitted using a wireless transmitter function provided inside the ball.
In step S2, check whether any of the pressure sensors (C1, C2, C3, C4, C5 ...) provided near the surface of the polyhedron such as a soccer ball senses a pressure above the threshold. And branch control.
If not detected, the process proceeds to step S3, where the position information is transmitted using the wireless transmitter, and the process proceeds to the position information acquisition sub-process R.
If the pressure sensor detects in step S3, the number of the detected piezoelectric sensor is transmitted in step S4. Further, the process proceeds to step S5, and the transmission of the position information is transmitted using the wireless transmitter, and the process proceeds to the position information acquisition subprocess R.
In step S6, it is checked whether or not the game time has elapsed. If the game time has not elapsed, the control described above is executed again from step 1. If it has elapsed, the control is stopped.

The position information acquisition subprocess R will be described below.
In step R1, the coordinates of XYZ transmitted from the wireless transmitter are received.
In step R2, it is determined whether the coordinates obtained in step R1 are located within the goal of the soccer ball. If not, the position information of the ball is displayed at step R3.
When the ball is located in the goal, in step R4, the score corresponding to the surface obtained by the pressure sensor is displayed as a score.
In this way, it is possible to make a fun game rich in game characteristics by changing the score obtained depending on where the ball which is a polyhedron has been kicked and scored.
