<3. Flow of golf shot analysis process>
A flow of golf shot analysis processing executed by the analysis system 100 will be described with reference to FIG. The golf shot analysis process includes a process of collecting shot data via the mobile terminal 1 during a golf round, and uploading and storing the shot data from the mobile terminal 1 to the server 2. Further, the golf shot analysis process includes a process of analyzing the shot characteristics of the golfer G based on shot data collected during the past round accumulated in the server 2. That is, in the golf shot analysis process, shot analysis is performed based on shot data already collected while collecting shot data. Further, the golf shot analysis process includes a navigation process for navigating the play of the golfer G during the round. In the navigation processing, based on the above shot characteristics, information supporting the play of the golfer G during the round is derived, and the information is provided to the user via the mobile terminal 1 in real time.

  The golf shot analysis process of FIG. 4 is executed during a golf round. First, when starting a round on a golf course, the user operates the portable terminal 1 to activate an application implemented by the program 1A. Thereby, the process shown in FIG. 4 starts.

  When the application is activated, a golf course is selected on the mobile terminal 1 (step S1). Course information relating to various golf courses is stored in the storage unit 23 of the server 2, and in step S1, course information relating to a golf course to be rounded from now is selected. Golf course selection is performed manually or automatically. In the case of manual operation, the user operates the input unit 12 of the portable terminal 1 to input information (such as the name and address of the golf course) for specifying the golf course. Downloaded to the mobile terminal 1. In the case of automatic, the position measurement unit 14A of the portable terminal 1 measures the position information of the portable terminal 1, and the golf course where the user is currently located is specified based on the position information, and the corresponding course information is the same. Downloaded. The course information may be stored in the storage unit 13 of the mobile terminal 1 or may be acquired from a server other than the server 2. The course information of this embodiment includes hall map information. In addition, the map information of the hall includes a plane map 40 of the hall in the form divided into various areas such as tea ground, green, pin, fairway, rough, OB zone, forest, bunker, pond, creek, etc. (FIGS. 5 and 5). 6), and scale information of the map 40 is also included.

  In subsequent step S <b> 2, the analysis unit 14 </ b> E analyzes the shot of the golfer G based on the shot data of the golfer G accumulated so far in the database 3. First, the analysis unit 14E downloads past shot data related to the golfer G from the server 2 together with various related information, and calculates a deviation amount between the target value and the result value of each past shot. The target value and the result value include information on the hit ball direction and the flight distance, and the shift amount of the hit ball direction and the flight distance is calculated as the shift amount. The amount of deviation in the direction of the hitting ball can be expressed as the distance between the straight line connecting the hitting point and the target point and the result point (the length of the perpendicular drawn from the result point to the same line). Can also be distinguished. The deviation amount of the flight distance can be expressed as a value obtained by subtracting the distance from the hitting point to the result point from the distance from the hitting point to the target point. The analysis unit 14E analyzes the deviation amount of each shot as the shot characteristics of the golfer G by analyzing the amount of deviation for each count. As an index representing the variation tendency, for example, an average value and a variance of a deviation amount with respect to a hitting ball direction and a flight distance are calculated.

  The analysis unit 14E also analyzes the shot characteristics of the golfer G by analyzing the actual flight distance for each count. At this time, the analysis unit 14E calculates the average flight distance for each count based on the result value regarding the flight distance included in the downloaded past shot data, and further calculates the flight distance for each count based on the average flight distance. Calculate a guide. At this time, the dispersion of the flight distance may be calculated together with the average flight distance, and the flight distance guide may be calculated based on these.

  The analysis unit 14E also analyzes the shot characteristics of the golfer G by analyzing a situation that is not good. The weak situation is specified based on the downloaded past shot data and various related information. In the database 3, information relating to the hitting point of each shot is stored in association with shot data corresponding to the shot. Therefore, by superimposing the information on the hitting point and the map information of the hole, it can be understood in what kind of situation each shot was performed. The analysis unit 14E counts the number of hits required to escape from a specific situation such as a bunker, rough, or forest, and determines that the specific situation with a large number of hits is a weak situation.

  The shot characteristics of the golfer G are uploaded and stored in the database 3 as appropriate. Then, when the same analysis is performed next time, the arithmetic processing can be simplified by appropriately referring to the existing values and updating the same values.

  The database 3 of the server 2 stores the personal information of the golfer G in association with the golfer ID. The personal information includes the age, height, weight and sex of the golfer G and information on the golf club used by the golfer G. The golf club information includes information for identifying the golf club (hereinafter referred to as a club ID, for example, information on the manufacturer name and model number) and information indicating the number of the golf club. Are associated with each other. The analysis unit 14E can analyze shots based not only on shot data but also on such personal information. For example, the database 3 collects shot data and various related information regarding a large number of golf players G from a large number of portable terminals 1. Therefore, the analysis unit 14E uses items such as age included in the personal information and counts included in the golf club information based on the shot data and various related information of the round of golfers G accumulated in the database 3. Separately, shot analysis is performed by calculating a variation tendency. Such analysis results that exceed the golfer G can be utilized for the development, sales, and fitting of golf clubs.

  In subsequent step S3, the screen creation unit 14F creates a capture route screen W1 (see FIGS. 5 and 6) and displays it on the display unit 11. The capture route screen W1 is a screen including a plane map 40 of the hole where the user is currently present and an image in which the capture route 50 is superimposed on the map. The capture route 50 is derived by the analysis unit 14E based on the current hole map information included in the course information acquired in step S1 and the shot characteristics of the golfer G calculated in step S2. Here, the analysis unit 14E determines the capture route 50 of the next shot that matches the golfer G.

  FIG. 5 shows an example of the capture route screen W1 before the first shot is shot in a certain hole. As shown in the flowchart of FIG. 4, steps S2 and S3 are repeatedly executed until the round ends, and are also executed before the second shot and subsequent shots in each hole. FIG. 6 is an example of the capture route screen W1 before the third shot is shot in the same hole as in FIG. On the plane map 40, a current point, a final target point, and a target point recommended for the next shot (hereinafter referred to as a recommended target point) are displayed. The final target point is a pin or green center position, and can be appropriately selected by the user. On the plane map 40, the end route 51 is also displayed in addition to the capture route 50 after the end of the first shot in each hole. The end route 51 includes a result point of each shot that has already ended, and further includes a target point before the shot of each shot that has already ended. In the example of FIGS. 5 and 6, the result point of the Nth hit is displayed as a square mark indicating the value of N, and the target point of the Nth hit is displayed as a circle mark indicating the value of N. . Further, a dotted straight line for representing the capture route 50 is drawn between the current location and the recommended target location. A solid line for representing the end route 51 is drawn between the hitting point and the result point of each shot in the past, and one point for representing the end route 51 between the hitting point and the target point before the shot. A chain line is drawn.

  In step S3, in order to determine the capture route 50, the analysis unit 14E adds a recommended golf club number (hereinafter referred to as recommended number) to be used for the next shot in addition to the recommended target point for the next shot. Decide). The recommended count is displayed as a default value in a count input box B1 (details will be described later) on the capture route screen W1. The recommended target point is not only displayed graphically on the map 40 but also displayed as a default value in a target input box B2 (details will be described later) on the capture route screen W1. In this way, the analysis unit 14E continues to analyze the shot of the golfer G in step S3, and determines a recommended target point and a recommended count that match the golfer G as a result of the analysis.

  The recommended target point and the recommended count are determined as follows. That is, at step S3, at the time of execution of step S3, as a shot characteristic of the golfer G, an index indicating a variation tendency for each count (average and variance of deviation amounts between the target value and the result value for the hitting ball direction and the flight distance) ), An average flight distance, and a guide for the flight distance. Based on this information, the analysis unit 14E, for example, recommends the distance from the current position to the final target position as a recommended number, even if the club is the longest number except the driver after the second shot in each hole. (Same as in this paragraph) Select the driver if it is longer than the target of the flight distance, and select the number corresponding to the remaining distance if it is shorter. For example, if the distance from the current point to the final target point is longer than a certain value (for example, a guideline for the recommended number), Decide to overlap the final target point. The standard capture route is, for example, a route drawn from the current point to the final target point so as to pass through the central point in the direction perpendicular to the traveling direction of the fairway along the traveling direction.

  In addition, when determining the recommended target point and the recommended number, various conditions such as information on the golfer G's shot variation tendency and unfavorable situations are also considered. For example, there is a creek that crosses the fairway, and a count that is judged to have a high possibility of entering the creek from the tendency of the flight distance can be removed from the recommended count. In addition, for example, golfer G is not good at escaping from a bunker, there is a bunker in front of the right side of the green, and the recommended number determined based on the distance to the final target point is often removed to the right side think of. In such a case, the recommended target point can be shifted from the final target point to the left back, and the count that matches the recommended target point after the shift can be selected as the recommended count.

  As shown in FIG. 7, a plurality of capture routes 50 based on combinations of recommended target points and recommended counts can be displayed. For example, consider a case where the number reaches the final target point on the green, but it is often removed to the left, and there is a pond in front of the green. In this case, the number that reaches the final target point is the recommended number, the recommended target point is shifted to the right from the final target point, the shorter number that does not reach the pond is the recommended number, and the recommended target point is the same number. The plan set according to the flight distance can be displayed. Note that an object for displaying the capture route 50 has been selected, and a value corresponding to the latest selected capture route 50 is input into a count input box B1 and a target input box B2, which will be described later.

  In subsequent step S4, the count acquisition unit 14D receives an input of the count of the golf club used in the next shot from the user. Specifically, a count input box B1 for accepting an input of a count is displayed on the capture route screen W1. As already described, in the count input box B1, the recommended count of the next shot is displayed as a default value to help the user to select the count of the next shot. The golfer G can use the recommended count as it is for the next shot, and in such a case, it is not necessary to input a new count in the count input box B1.

  On the other hand, golfer G may want to use a different count from the recommended count depending on the condition of the day. In such a case, the user inputs the count that he / she intends to use in the next shot in the form of updating the current display in the count input box B1. In accordance with the input, the count acquisition unit 14D acquires the same count information (hereinafter referred to as a selected count) as the count information used in the next shot. In response to this, the screen creation unit 14F creates an analysis result screen W2 that displays the result of the shot analysis in order to assist the final selection of the count by the user. The analysis result screen W2 may be displayed side by side or superimposed on the strategy route screen W1, or may be displayed instead of the strategy route screen W1.

  As shown in FIG. 8, a graph G1 indicating the variation tendency of the selected count is displayed on the analysis result screen W2. The graph G1 is a plane graph in which the horizontal axis indicates the amount of deviation in the hitting direction and the vertical axis indicates the amount of deviation in the flying distance, and the values of the deviation in the hitting direction and the flying distance based on past shot data regarding the selected number are shown. All points shown are plotted. The origin of the graph G1 is a target value. On the graph G1, the average value of the deviation amount of the hitting direction and the flight distance is shown, and further, one or a plurality of circles C1 having the radius as the center of the point indicating the average value and the radius of variation are displayed. The Further, on the analysis result screen W2, a similar graph G1 is displayed for the counts before and after the selected count. The graph G1 before and after the count may be switched from the selected count graph G1 on the screen W2, or may be displayed side by side.

  In addition, on the analysis result screen W2, a graph G2 indicating a variation tendency for each count is also displayed. The graph G2 is also a plane graph in which the horizontal axis indicates the amount of deviation in the hitting direction and the vertical axis indicates the amount of deviation in the flying distance, and a value indicating the average value of the amount of deviation in the hitting direction of each count and the flying distance is plotted. The

  In addition, when the count acquisition unit 14D acquires the information of the selection number of the next shot, the analysis unit 14E has a case where the selection number is used in the next shot based on the shot characteristics of the golfer G regarding the selection number. A predicted value of the result of the next shot is calculated. In addition, the analysis unit 14E similarly calculates the predicted value of the result of the next shot when the counts before and after the selected count are used in the next shot. The predicted value includes a value indicating a flight distance and a hitting ball direction. The screen creation unit 14F displays a capture route 52 indicating target points based on these predicted values (hereinafter referred to as predicted target points) on the planar map 40 of the capture route screen W1 (see FIG. 9). FIG. 9 shows an example in which the 6th iron is newly selected. The user can select the display or non-display of the capture route 52 relating to the front and rear counts as appropriate. It should be noted that an object for displaying the capture route 52 has been selected, and a value corresponding to the latest selected capture route 50 or 52 is displayed in a count input box B1 and a target input box B2, which will be described later.

  The count used in the next shot can be manually input into the count input box B1 via a keyboard, mouse, operation buttons, etc., but the club information held in the golf club can be input via the reader of the portable terminal 1 Simple input is also possible by reading. The club information is information that can identify the golf club count, and may be information indicating the count itself or a club ID. In the latter case, the count acquisition unit 14D can acquire count information by comparing the club ID with the information on the golf club in the database 3. The reader of the mobile terminal 1 can be realized in various forms. For example, club information is stored in a chip embedded in a golf club, and the communication unit 15 as a leader performs non-contact communication or short-range wireless communication with the chip, whereby the count acquisition unit 14D acquires the club information. You may make it acquire. Alternatively, the club information may be held in the golf club in the form of a bar code or the like, and the camera included in the input unit 12 may be operated as a reader to read it.

  In subsequent step S5, the target setting unit 14B receives an input of the target point of the next shot from the user. Specifically, a target input box B2 that accepts an input of a target point is displayed on the capture route screen W1. In the target input box B2, a direction from the current point to the target point (hereinafter referred to as a target direction) and a distance from the current point to the target point (hereinafter referred to as a target distance) can be input. The target direction is specified with reference to the direction from the current position toward the final target point. As already described, a value indicating the recommended target point or predicted target point of the next shot is displayed in the target input box B2. The golfer G can adopt the recommended target point or the predicted target point as it is as the target point of the next shot, and in such a case, it is not necessary to input a new target point in the target input box B2.

  On the other hand, the golfer G may want to set a target point different from the recommended target point depending on the condition of the day. In such a case, the user inputs the target point of the next shot in a form that updates the current display in the target input box B2. The target setting unit 14B sets a target value for the next shot according to the input. The screen creation unit 14F displays the capture route 53 corresponding to the set target point on the plane map 40 of the capture route screen W1 (see FIG. 10).

  The target point of the next shot can be manually input into the target input box B2 via a keyboard, a mouse, an operation button, or the like, but by selecting a specific point on the plane map 40 of the capture route screen W1, Simple input is also possible. At this time, a specific point on the plane map 40 may be selected by operating the touch panel. The touch panel operation may be performed with a finger or a touch pen, but it is preferable to use a touch pen with a thin tip. When a target point is input on the plane map 40, the target value of the next shot is set in the same manner, and the capture route 53 is displayed on the plane map 40. Further, when the target point is input on the plane map 40, the screen creation unit 14F updates the display in the target input box B2 to a value corresponding to the input target point.

  As shown below, the user knows the predicted result of the next shot when using various counts along with the recommended target point and recommended count while sequentially inputting various count information as necessary. The final number and target point can be determined. The user finally determines the count and target point of the next shot, and then uses the actually determined count and performs a shot aiming at the final determined target point.

  In subsequent step S6, the result acquisition unit 14C receives an input of the result point of the finished shot from the user. Specifically, the user moves to the reaching point of the ball while holding the mobile terminal 1 on the golf course, and makes a predetermined input to the mobile terminal 1 there. In response to this, the result acquisition unit 14C measures position information via the position measurement unit 14A and acquires the position information as a result point.

  The result point can also be automatically input by reading from the ball via the reader of the mobile terminal 1. In this case, a position measurement function similar to that of the position measurement unit 14A is mounted on the chip embedded in the ball. Then, the communication unit 15 as a leader performs non-contact communication or short-range wireless communication with the chip, so that the result acquisition unit 14C may acquire position information as a result point from the ball. Alternatively, information capable of identifying the ball is stored in a chip embedded in the ball, and when the communication between the communication unit 15 and the ball is successful, the result acquisition unit 14C receives the result point via the position measurement unit 14A. The position information may be acquired.

  Further, the result point can be simply input by selecting a specific point on the plane map 40 of the capture route screen W1. At this time, a specific point on the plane map 40 may be selected by operating the touch panel. The touch panel operation may be performed with a finger or a touch pen, but it is preferable to use a touch pen with a thin tip. This method is useful when the ball is OB (out of bounds) and the user does not move to the arrival point of the ball.

  In the subsequent step S7, the count, target value, and result value of the shot that has just ended are uploaded from the portable terminal 1 to the server 2. Note that the count and target value information transmitted to the database 3 correspond to the values input in the input boxes B1 and B2 respectively when the result point is input. These pieces of information are stored in the database 3 in association with the golfer ID.

  The above steps S2 to S7 are repeated until it is determined in step S8 that the round has ended. That is, steps S2 to S7 are executed for each shot in the round. The end of the round is determined based on the fact that the user has made an input to that effect, the result of the final hole being entered, and so on.

  If it is determined that the round has ended, a round result screen W3 (see FIG. 11) is displayed on the display unit 11 for reviewing the round (step S9). The round result screen W3 is a screen for displaying a round result, and is created by the screen creation unit 14F. On the round result screen W3, the number of each shot of each hole (including the number actually used and the recommended number), the target point, and the result point are displayed. The target point and the result point are plotted on the plane map 40 displayed on the round result screen W3 together with the start point and the final target point. In the example of FIG. 11, the result point of the Nth hit is displayed as a square mark showing a numerical value of N, and the target point of the Nth hit is displayed as a round mark showing a numerical value of N. Further, a dotted straight line is drawn between the hitting point and the target point, and a solid line is drawn between the hitting point and the result point. Such a screen W3 can be confirmed at an arbitrary timing so that it can be used for future play. For example, the screen W3 can be confirmed after returning home or at a golf driving range. Similarly, an analysis result screen as shown in FIG. 8 can be created and displayed on the portable terminal 1 at an arbitrary timing for each golf club number possessed by the golfer G.

In the above embodiment, the server 2 functions as an online storage for storing various data acquired from the mobile terminal 1, and the golf shot analysis process is executed by the mobile terminal 1 downloading and analyzing the data appropriately. . However, among the functions implemented in the program 1A of the portable terminal 1, all or a part of the functions suitable for being executed by the server 2 are implemented in the program 2A of the server 2 and, consequently, in the control unit 24. The processing performed by 1 may be distributed to the server 2. For example, the program 1A of the mobile terminal 1 may be a simple browser. In this case, all the special functions for executing the golf shot analysis process are implemented in principle on the server 2 side, and the mobile terminal 1 mainly receives an operation input from the user and displays various screens provided from the server 2. It is also possible to execute only general-purpose processing. That is, a service related to golf shot analysis processing may be provided from the server 2 to a user operating the mobile terminal 1 in a form called ASP (Application Service Provider), SaaS (Software as a Service), or the like.

<4-2>
The amount of deviation between the target value and the result value is not calculated when the shot is analyzed, but is calculated when the target value and the result value are acquired, and instead of or in addition to the target value and the result value, Data may be stored in the database 3 as data.

<4-3>
In the above embodiment, values indicating the hitting direction and flight distance can be manually set as target values for shots, but only values indicating the hitting direction may be set manually. In this case, the target value related to the flight distance can be automatically set based on the average flight distance of the count used for the shot, the standard of the flight distance, and the like.
