Description

  The present invention relates to a golf equipment and program for improving a golf swing.

  In the golf swing, the timing of the downswing and the positional relationship between the ball and the head before and after impact (at the time of hitting) are important. That is, in order to make a good shot, it is important that the ball is hit at an optimal timing after the start of the downswing and that the head does not move unnecessarily.

  In order to improve the golf swing, an apparatus has been proposed that enables a swing motion to be photographed and compared with an exemplary swing image photographed in advance (see Patent Document 1). In addition, an apparatus has been proposed that detects the movement of the head during a swing and provides the user with improvement information for improving the movement of the head (see Patent Document 2).

[Basic configuration of glasses 100]
FIG. 1 shows an appearance of the glasses 100 according to the first embodiment. FIG. 2 shows a configuration of the glasses 100 according to the first embodiment. The glasses 100 function as a golf equipment.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the spectacles 100 includes a pair of frames 110, a temple 120, a pair of lenses 130, and a bridge 140. Further, the eyeglasses 100 have an output unit 150 inside at least one frame 110. As shown in FIG. 2, a reference timing generation unit 160, a storage unit 170, and a control unit 180 are provided inside the bridge 140. The bridge 140 may include an electric board on which the storage unit 170, the reference timing generation unit 160, and the control unit 180 are mounted. The bridge 140 may include a battery that operates the output unit 150, the reference timing generation unit 160, the storage unit 170, and the control unit 180.

  The output unit 150 is provided inside at least one frame 110 and outputs light at different output timings for each display position. The output unit 150 may output sound. As an example, at least a part of the output unit 150 is provided on the front side of the lens 130, that is, on the side of the person wearing the glasses 100. The output unit 150 may be provided inside the frame along the lower side of the frame 110 of the glasses 100. The output unit 150 may be provided along a plurality of sides of the frame 110 of the glasses 100. The output unit 150 is, for example, a color liquid crystal display or a color LED (light emitting diode), and is connected to the control unit 180.

  The output unit 150 may be provided on the side opposite to the front side of the lens 130. The spectacles 100 may have two lenses 130 inside the frame 110, and the output unit 150 may be provided between the two lenses 130-1 and 130-2. The two lenses 130 are preferably larger than the light transmittance for transmitting the light of the light emitting element 152 and smaller than the light transmittance for allowing the user to visually recognize the shape of the light emitting element 152. Here, the light transmittance is a rate at which light incident on the lens 130 passes through the lens 130. Since the lens 130-2 has the above-described light transmittance, the spectacles 100 function as sunglasses and the light emitting element 152 is not visually recognized from the outside, so that the design can be improved.

  As an example, the output unit 150 displays a first color at a position a in FIG. 1 at a first timing (hereinafter, referred to as a first output timing). Subsequently, the output unit 150 displays the second color at the position b at a second timing after the first output timing (hereinafter referred to as second output timing). Next, the output unit 150 displays the third color at the position a at a third timing (hereinafter, third output timing) after the second output timing. The output unit 150 may further display the fourth color at the position c at a fourth timing after the third output timing (hereinafter, “fourth output timing”).

  The reference timing generation unit 160 generates a reference timing that serves as a reference for a plurality of output timings at which the output unit 150 starts light output. For example, the reference timing generation unit 160 includes a switch that can be operated by the user of the glasses 100, and the timing when the switch is pressed by the user is set as the reference timing. The reference timing generation unit 160 may input a signal indicating the generated reference timing to the control unit 180.

  The storage unit 170 stores a plurality of output timings and a mode of light output by the output unit 150 at a plurality of output timings. The output timing is represented by a delay time with respect to the reference timing. For example, the storage unit 170 stores the display position in association with the output timing. Specifically, the storage unit 170 stores “1.0 seconds” as the first output timing in association with the position a, and stores “2.0 seconds” as the second output timing in association with the position b. Then, “2.3 seconds” is stored as the third output timing in association with the position a. The storage unit 170 may store “2.6 seconds” as the fourth output timing in association with the position c. The storage unit 170 may store the hue, saturation, brightness, or luminance displayed on the output unit 150 in association with the output timing and the display position.

  The storage unit 170 is a storage element such as a memory, for example. The storage unit 170 may store the output timing written when the glasses 100 are manufactured, or may store the output timing written after the glasses 100 are manufactured. For example, the storage unit 170 may store output timing input by a user using a computer.

  The storage unit 170 may store a plurality of output timings associated with the types of golf clubs. The storage unit 170 may store a plurality of output timings associated with swing types such as full shot and half shot.

  The control unit 180 controls the output unit 150 based on the reference timing generated by the reference timing generation unit 160 and the output timing stored in the storage unit 170. Specifically, when the control unit 180 acquires the reference timing from the reference timing generation unit 160, the light of the first mode (for example, green) at the position a at the output unit 150 at the first output timing with respect to the reference timing. Is output. At the second output timing, the control unit 180 causes the output unit 150 to output light of a second mode (for example, red) different from the first mode at the position b. At the third output timing, the control unit 180 causes the output unit 150 to output a third mode different from the second mode (for example, red at a higher brightness than at the position b at the position a).

  The control unit 180 may cause the output unit 150 to output the fourth mode (for example, blue) at the position c at the fourth output timing. The control unit 180 may output the light in the same mode as the first mode at the third output timing. The controller 180 may cause the output unit 150 to output light or sound at different output timings depending on the type of golf club or the type of swing.

  As an example, the first output timing indicates a timing at which an addressed golf player starts takeback. The second output timing indicates the timing at which the head of the golf club is set to the highest position by takeback and the downswing should be started. The third output timing indicates the impact timing. The fourth output timing indicates the timing when the follow should be finished and the head should be placed at the highest position.

  The hues of the colors displayed by the output unit 150 at different display positions may be the same or different. As an example, the luminance of the color displayed for the second time at the position where the output unit 150 displays at the first output timing is larger than the luminance of the color displayed at the first output timing. By changing the luminance of the color displayed by the output unit 150 in this way, the user can strongly recognize the moment of impact.

  When the control unit 180 obtains the reference timing from the reference timing generation unit 160, the control unit 180 moves the display position of the light in the first direction by the first distance based on the plurality of output timings, and then exceeds the first distance. The output unit 150 may be controlled so as to move the light display position in a second direction opposite to the first direction by the second distance. As the control unit 180 controls the output unit 150 as described above, the user can visually grasp the timing from the start of the swing to the take-back until the impact.

  In the above description, the position where the output unit 150 displays the color is the position a, the position b, and the position c. However, the output unit 150 includes the first output timing, the second output timing, the third output timing, and You may display a color in positions other than the position a, the position b, and the position c between any of 4th output timings. For example, the output unit 150 increases the luminance of the displayed color as the display position approaches the position a while moving the display position from the position b to the position a, and moves the display position to the position c beyond the position a. In the meantime, the brightness of the displayed color is lowered as the position c is approached.

The output unit 150 changes the hue while moving the display position from position a to position b, while moving the display position from position b to position a, and while moving the display position from position a to position c. You may let them. In this way, the output unit 150 changes at least one of luminance and hue according to the display position, so that the user can grasp important timings in the swing such as takeback speed, impact timing, and follow speed. It becomes easy to do.

  The output unit 150 may include a sound source that outputs a plurality of sounds having different frequencies, and may output different sounds depending on the display position. Specifically, the control unit 180 changes the frequency of the sound output by the sound source between the first output timing and the second output timing, and between the second output timing and the third output timing, You may change the frequency of the sound which outputs from the 1st output timing and the 2nd output timing in a different aspect. For example, the output unit 150 outputs a sound whose frequency changes high while moving the display position in the first direction, and outputs a sound whose frequency changes low while moving the display position in the second direction. . When the output unit 150 outputs a sound, the user can more easily understand the timing of the swing.

[Effect of the first embodiment]
As described above, by using the glasses 100 according to the first embodiment, the user can swing in accordance with the output timing of light or sound in the output unit 150, so that the swing can be improved. In particular, the user can easily grasp the timing of the entire swing by acquiring the timing of starting the swing, the timing of starting the downswing, and the timing of impact.

  Furthermore, the user not only swings while visually recognizing the output unit 150, but can also grasp the timing by the output from the output unit 150 before swinging. There is also an effect that the timing of the swing can be improved by the user grasping the desired timing immediately before the swing.

<Second Embodiment>
[Configuration using light-emitting diodes]
FIG. 3 shows an appearance of the glasses 100 according to the second embodiment. The eyeglasses 100 shown in FIG. 3 have 14 light emitting elements 152 ranging from the light emitting element 152-1 to the light emitting element 152-14 as the output unit 150 shown in FIG. 1. In the glasses 100 shown in FIG. 3, the shapes of the frame 110, the lens 130, and the bridge 140 may be different from or the same as those of the glasses 100 shown in FIG.

  FIG. 4 shows a configuration of the glasses 100 according to the second embodiment. The output unit 150 illustrated in FIG. 4 includes a plurality of light-emitting elements 152 (light-emitting elements 152-1, light-emitting elements 152-2,..., Light-emitting elements 152-n, where n is an integer of 3 or more). Different from the glasses 100 shown in FIG. The light emitting element 152 is, for example, a light emitting diode. Each of the plurality of light emitting elements 152 may have a different hue, saturation, and luminance.

  As an example, the plurality of light emitting elements 152 are provided inside the frame 110 along the frame 110. Here, the inside of the frame 110 is a side where the lens 130 is provided with respect to the frame 110. The plurality of light emitting elements 152 may be provided on the frame 110.

  The plurality of light emitting elements 152 may be provided on the front side of the lens 130, that is, on the face side of the user of the glasses 100. In FIG. 3, the plurality of light emitting elements 152 are depicted in a visible state. However, the spectacles 100 includes two lenses 130-1 and 130-2 inside the frame 110. May be provided between the two lenses 130. That is, the plurality of light emitting elements 152 may be provided between the plurality of lenses 130.

  The plurality of light emitting elements 152 are mounted on a circuit board and are connected to a control unit 180 included in the bridge 140. As an example, the plurality of light emitting elements 152 are mounted on a donut-shaped transparent substrate provided inside the frame 110 along the frame 110.

  The control unit 180 is connected to the plurality of light emitting elements 152, and switches the light emitting elements 152 to be lit among the plurality of light emitting elements 152 according to the output timing stored in the storage unit 170. The control unit 180 may include a plurality of transistors that control lighting of the plurality of light emitting elements 152.

  Specifically, the control unit 180 acquires the reference timing from the reference timing generation unit 160 in accordance with a user operation. The control unit 180 acquires information indicating the relationship between the output timing and the display position from the storage unit 170, and sequentially turns on and off the plurality of light emitting elements 152 based on the acquired information.

  FIG. 5 shows an example of information indicating the relationship between the output timing and the display position stored in the storage unit 170. In the figure, the vertical direction indicates the output timing based on the reference timing. The horizontal direction indicates the position (display position) of the light emitting element 152 that emits light at each output timing. 5, “1” in the horizontal direction corresponds to the light emitting element 152-1, “2” corresponds to the light emitting element 152-2,..., “14” corresponds to the light emitting element 152-14.

  The number associated with the output timing and the display position indicates the lighting brightness of the light emitting element 152 corresponding to the display position. The control unit 180 lights the light emitting element 152 at the lowest luminance at the output timing and display position where “1” is written, and at the highest luminance at the output timing and display position where “4” is written. The light emitting element 152 is turned on. The control unit 180 does not light the light emitting element 152 at the blank output timing and display position.

  For example, during the period including the first output timing of 1 second from the reference timing, the control unit 180 is the lowest in the vertical direction and is provided at the approximate center of the plurality of light emitting elements 152 in the horizontal direction. 152-8 is lit with the first luminance. Thereafter, the control unit 180 turns on the light emitting element 152-6, the light emitting element 152-5,..., And the light emitting element 152-1 so that the lighting position moves in the first direction as time passes. The light emitting element 152 to be switched is switched.

  Subsequently, at the second output timing, the control unit 180 switches the light emitting element 152-1 provided at the uppermost position in the vertical direction from any lighting time of the light emitting element 152-2 to the light emitting element 152-6. Also light up for a long time. After the light emitting element 152-1 is turned on, the control unit 180 turns the light emitting element 152-1, the light emitting element 152-2,..., And the light emitting element 152-8 in the second direction opposite to the first direction. The light emitting element 152 to be lit is switched so that the lighting position moves. In order to match that the speed of the takeback is slower than the speed of the down swing that swings the golf club down toward the impact position, the control unit 180 is faster than the speed at which the lighting position is moved in the first direction. The lighting position may be moved in the second direction at a high speed.

  The controller 180 may increase the lighting brightness as the lighting position is moved from the light emitting element 152-1 toward the light emitting element 152-8. By changing the lighting brightness as the control unit 180 moves the lighting position, the user can accurately grasp the impact timing.

  After turning on the light emitting element 152-8 at the third output timing, the control unit 180 sequentially moves the lighting position to the light emitting element 152-9, the light emitting element 152-10, ..., the light emitting element 152-14. May be. The controller 180 may decrease the lighting brightness as the lighting position is moved after the light emitting element 152-8 is turned on. The controller 180 may slow down the speed at which the lighting position is moved after the light emitting element 152-8 is turned on.

  The controller 180 may change the hue of the light emitting element 152 to be lit as the lighting position is moved. For example, the light emitting element 152 includes light emitting diodes of three colors of red, green, and blue, and the control unit 180 turns on among the plurality of light emitting diodes included in each light emitting element 152 according to the output timing. By switching the light emitting diode, the hue at the time of lighting is changed.

  As an example, the control unit 180 lights the light emitting element 152-8 in green when the output timing is 1.0 second, indicating that the takeback may be started, and the display position is the light emitting element 152- As the value approaches 1, the hue at lighting is gradually changed from green to blue. Subsequently, the control unit 180 gradually changes the hue at the time of lighting from blue to red while moving the display position from the light emitting element 152-1 to the light emitting element 152-8.

  Further, the control unit 180 turns on the light emitting element 152-8 with a brightness higher than the lighting brightness of the other light emitting elements 152, thereby indicating to the user that the moment of impact. Lastly, the control unit 180 gradually changes the hue at the time of lighting from red to blue and lowers the luminance while moving the display position from the light emitting element 152-8 to the light emitting element 152-14.

  The control unit 180 may switch the direction in which the lighting position is moved in accordance with an instruction acquired from the user. For example, when the control unit 180 acquires information indicating that the user is right-handed, the control unit 180 moves the display position from the light emitting element 152-8 to the light emitting element 152-1, and then the light emitting element 152-1 to the light emitting element 152. The display position is moved to the light emitting element 152-14 via −8. When the control unit 180 acquires information indicating that the user is left-handed, the control unit 180 moves the display position from the light emitting element 152-8 to the light emitting element 152-14, and then changes the light emitting element 152-8 from the light emitting element 152-14. The display position is moved to the light emitting element 152-1.

[Effects of Second Embodiment]
As described above, the eyeglasses 100 according to the second embodiment sequentially switch the light emitting elements 152 to be lit among the plurality of light emitting elements 152 provided inside the frame 110 according to the output timing, and the hue at the time of lighting. Alternatively, the luminance is changed sequentially. As a result, there is an effect that the user can easily grasp the desired timing at the time of swing. In particular, in the example shown in FIG. 3, since the plurality of light emitting elements 152 are provided in an elliptical shape inside the frame 110, the user can swing while imagining the movement trajectory of the golf club head. There is also an effect that can be done.

<Third Embodiment>
[The light emitting element 152 is provided inside the binocular frame 110]
FIG. 6 shows the appearance of the glasses 100 of the third embodiment. The eyeglasses 100 in the figure are different from the eyeglasses 100 shown in FIG. 3 in that a plurality of light emitting elements 152 are provided inside the respective frames 110 corresponding to the right eye and the left eye.

  The control unit 180 emits light that is provided at the uppermost position among the plurality of light emitting elements 152 provided on the inner side of the frame 110 of the right eye from the light emitting element 152-7 closest to the center in the left-right direction of the glasses 100. The lighting position is moved toward the element 152-1. Thereafter, the control unit 180 moves the lighting position from the light emitting element 152-1 to the light emitting element 152-14 provided inside the left eye frame 110 via the light emitting element 152-7. As in the second embodiment, the control unit 180 may change at least one of the hue and the luminance of the light emitting element 152 to be lit according to the output timing.

  The control unit 180 may switch the direction in which the lighting position is moved in accordance with an instruction acquired from the user. For example, when the control unit 180 acquires information indicating that the user is right-handed, the control unit 180 moves the display position to the right from the vicinity of the center of the glasses 100 to turn on the light-emitting element 152-1, and then the light-emitting element 152-. The display position is moved leftward toward 14. When acquiring information indicating that the user is left-handed, the control unit 180 moves the display position to the left from the vicinity of the center of the glasses 100 to turn on the light emitting element 152-14, and then directs the light emitting element 152-1. To move the display position to the right.

[Effect of the third embodiment]
As described above, the glasses 100 according to the third embodiment can display the swing timing using the left and right frames. As a result, since the light emitting element 152 emits light at the front position at the time of addressing and impact timing, there is an effect that it is easy to take the swing timing.

<Fourth Embodiment>
[Detect the timing of hitting the ball]
FIG. 7 shows the configuration of the glasses 100 of the fourth embodiment. The bridge 140 illustrated in FIG. 7 is different from the configuration of the glasses 100 illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 4 in that the bridge 140 further includes a sound detection unit 190.

  The sound detection unit 190 detects a hitting sound at the moment when the user of the glasses 100 hits the ball. The sound detection unit 190 includes, for example, a sound sensor. The sound detection unit 190 stores the hitting sound information including the frequency of the sound that characterizes the hitting sound, the sound change mode, and the intensity of the sound, and the similarity between the sound acquired after the reference timing and the hitting sound information The hitting sound is detected based on the degree. The sound detection unit 190 may include a memory that stores hitting sound information in association with the type of golf club. For example, the sound detector 190 stores the hitting sound information of each of the driver and the iron.

  When the sound detection unit 190 detects a hitting sound, the sound detection unit 190 generates a sound detection signal indicating a sound detection timing when the sound detection unit 190 detects the hitting sound and inputs the sound detection signal to the control unit 180. The control unit 180 causes the output unit to display a warning in a different manner based on the relationship between the sound detection timing and the third output timing corresponding to the target timing for hitting the ball.

  Specifically, when the sound detection timing is earlier than the third output timing by a time larger than a predetermined time, the control unit 180 causes the output unit 150 to output information indicating that the hitting timing is too early. When the sound detection timing is later than the third output timing by a time longer than a predetermined time, the output unit 150 is caused to output information indicating that the hitting timing is too late. For example, the control unit 180 turns on the different light emitting elements 152 when the hitting timing is too early and too late. The controller 180 may turn on the light emitting element 152 in a different manner depending on whether the hitting timing is too early or too late.

  The control unit 180 acquires the type of the golf club to be used from the user, reads out the third output timing associated with the type of the golf club selected by the user from the storage unit 170, and outputs the third output timing corresponding to the type of the golf club. You may compare 3 output timing with a hit ball timing. For example, the control unit 180 compares the hitting timing with the third output timing corresponding to the wood count and the iron count. The control unit 180 may use the third output timing corresponding to each of the driver (1W), the brushy (2W), the spoon (3W), the buffy (4W), and the creek (5W), and corresponds to a plurality of counts. The third output timing may be used.

  The control unit 180 reads out the third output timing associated with the type of swing such as full shot or half shot from the storage unit 170, and compares the third output timing according to the type of swing with the hit ball timing. Also good. As described above, by changing the third output timing to be compared with the hitting timing according to the type of golf club and the type of swing, it is possible to learn the optimum timing for each shot.

  The controller 180 may correct the sound detection timing based on the distance between the position where the golf head hits the golf ball and the position of the sound detector 190. For example, if the position where the golf ball is hit and the position of the sound detection unit 190 are 2 m apart, it takes about 5.9 milliseconds for the hitting sound to reach the sound detection unit 190. Assuming that the speed of the golf head at the moment of impact is 45 m / s, an error of 5.9 milliseconds corresponds to about 26 cm. Therefore, the control unit 180 calculates a timing of 5.9 milliseconds corresponding to the propagation delay time of the hitting sound from the sound detection timing, and compares the calculated timing with the third timing to thereby determine the ball. You may display to warn of the timing shift.

  The control unit 180 may cause the storage unit 170 to store sound detection timing based on the reference timing. The control unit 180 may output a plurality of sound detection timing histories stored in the storage unit 170 to an information terminal connected to the glasses 100. The control unit may output a history of differences between the sound detection timing and the target timing to the information terminal. By checking these histories, the user can grasp whether the timing should be advanced or delayed.

  The control unit 180 may cause the storage unit 170 to store the sound detection timing as the impact target timing in accordance with a user operation. For example, by storing the sound detection timing at the time of hitting a good shot in the storage unit 170 as the target timing, the user can swing at the timing at the time of hitting a good shot the next time.

[Effect of the fourth embodiment]
As described above, according to the fourth embodiment, it is possible to acquire the timing at which the user hits the ball with a simple configuration of detecting sound. According to the configuration of the present embodiment, since the timing of hitting the ball can be detected with high accuracy, there is a remarkable effect that the user can recognize how to improve the swing.

<Fifth Embodiment>
[Detect the timing of swing by head movement]
FIG. 8 shows the configuration of the eyeglasses 100 of the fifth embodiment. The bridge 140 illustrated in FIG. 8 is different from the configuration of the glasses 100 illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 4 in that the bridge 140 further includes a position detection unit 210 and an output timing generation unit 220.

  The user of the glasses 100 slightly changes his head direction while swinging. Specifically, the head moves to the right during the takeback after the right-handed person starts swinging. During the downswing, the user's head moves to the left. Therefore, the spectacles 100 can acquire the swing timing based on a change in the position of the spectacles 100 with the following configuration.

  The position detection unit 210 detects the position of the glasses 100. As an example, the position detection unit 210 includes an acceleration sensor and a gyro sensor. The position detection unit 210 may calculate a position based on the position of the eyeglasses 100 at the reference timing based on a change in the direction in which the eyeglasses 100 are moved and a change in speed or acceleration at which the eyeglasses 100 are moved.

  The output timing generation unit 220 may generate a plurality of output timings based on the change in the position of the glasses 100 detected by the position detection unit 210. The output timing generation unit 220 may generate the output timing based on the position of the glasses 100 calculated based on a change in the direction, speed, or acceleration of the movement of the glasses 100 detected by the position detection unit 210.

  For example, the output timing generation unit 220 sets the timing at which the eyeglasses 100 start moving from a stationary state as the first output timing. The output timing generation unit 220 sets the timing at which the moving direction of the glasses 100 is reversed as the second output timing at which the golf club head is at the highest position. The output timing generation unit 220 may set the timing at which the moving speed of the glasses 100 becomes 0 or the timing at which the acceleration changes from a positive value to a negative value as the second output timing at which the head is at the highest position. .

  The output timing generation unit 220 swings down the golf club for the first time from the start of the swing until the golf club moves to the highest position, the second time when the golf club is stationary at the highest position. You may calculate the 3rd time until a follow is complete | finished after starting being done. The output timing generation unit 220 generates an output timing based on the first time and the second time. For example, when the first time is 0.7 seconds, the second time is 0.2 seconds, and the third time is 0.6 seconds, the output timing shown in FIG. 5 is generated.

  The spectacles 100 further includes the sound detection unit 190 described with reference to FIG. 7, and the output timing generation unit 220 generates the third output timing based on the sound detection timing acquired from the sound detection unit 190. Good. The output timing generation unit 220 can generate the first output timing, the second output timing, and the third output timing with high accuracy by using the position detection unit 210 and the sound detection unit 190.

  The control unit 180 may acquire the output timing generated by the output timing generation unit 220 and store the output timing in the storage unit 170 in association with the display position. After writing the output timing in the volatile memory, the control unit 180 may store the output timing written in the volatile memory in the nonvolatile memory included in the storage unit 170 in accordance with an instruction from the user.

  As described above, the control unit 180 stores the output timing in the storage unit 170 according to the user's operation, so that the user can leave the swing timing of the shot in the storage unit 170 after a good shot is made. it can. The control unit 180 may display a color on the output unit 150 based on the output timing selected by the user among the output timings stored in the storage unit 170. As a result, the user can swing at the timing when a good shot is made.

  FIG. 9A shows an example of a change in the position of the glasses 100 detected by the position detection unit 210. FIG. 9B shows a plurality of light emitting elements 152 of the glasses 100 shown in FIG. 8A indicates the position where the position detection unit 210 has detected the position, and the position of the glasses 100 is p8 at the reference timing. When the user starts swinging, the position of the glasses 100 sequentially moves from p8 to p1. The glasses 100 stop moving at p1, and then move in the opposite direction.

  9A, among the plurality of positions detected by the position detection unit 210, the distances between p8, p7, p6, p5, p4, p3, p2, and p1 are substantially equal. Therefore, the output timing generation unit 220 may set the timing at which the glasses 100 reach the respective positions from p8 to p1 as the timing to turn on the respective light emitting elements 152 from the light emitting elements 152-8 to 152-1.

  The storage unit 170 stores the output timing generated by the output timing generation unit 220 in association with the display position. Specifically, the storage unit 170 associates the light emitting element 152-8 to the light emitting element 152-1 shown in FIG. 9B with the timing when the glasses 100 move to the positions from p8 to p1 shown in FIG. 9A. Remember.

  The storage unit 170 may acquire information indicating a swing condition from the user and store the output timing in association with each condition. For example, the storage unit 170 stores different output timings for each condition that may affect the swing, such as the type of golf club, the type of shot, and the temperature. The control unit 180 reads out the output timing corresponding to the condition specified by the user from the storage unit 170 and causes the output unit 150 to display the output timing at the output timing. As a result, the user can swing at an optimal timing according to the swing condition.

  The position detection unit 210 may detect a change in the position of the glasses 100 at a time interval smaller than a minimum value of a plurality of output timing differences corresponding to adjacent display positions. For example, when the output unit 150 changes the display position at an output timing determined at intervals of 0.1 seconds, the position detection unit 210 detects a change in position at intervals of less than 0.1 seconds. When the position detection unit 210 detects a change in the position of the glasses 100 at an interval shorter than the output timing interval, the output timing generation unit 220 can generate the output timing with higher accuracy.

  The control unit 180 may cause the output unit 150 to display a warning when the difference between the output timing generated by the output timing generation unit 220 and the output timing stored in the storage unit 170 is greater than a predetermined value. Specifically, the storage unit 170 stores output timing acquired when the user of the glasses 100 makes a good shot, or output timing generated based on a swing by a professional golfer. The control unit 180 warns when the difference between the user's swing timing and the preferred timing stored in the storage unit 170 is large, so that the user can recognize whether or not the preferred swing has been made. .

  For example, the control unit 180 stores the first time from the start of the swing stored in the storage unit 170 until the golf club moves to the highest position for 0.9 seconds, and the golf club is at the highest position. The second time that is stationary is 0.3 seconds, the third time from when the golf club starts to be swung down until the follow is finished is 0.6 seconds, and the second time acquired based on the position detection unit 210 is When the time 1 is 0.7 seconds, the second time is 0.2 seconds, and the third time is 0.6 seconds, the difference between the first time and the first time is 0.1 seconds or more. Judge that time 2 is too short. Therefore, after the swing is finished, the control unit 180 displays a warning on the output unit 150 that the first time and the second time are insufficient.

  The output unit 150 may display a warning at a position where the difference between the output timing generated by the output timing generation unit 220 and the output timing stored in the storage unit 170 is larger than a predetermined value. For example, when the first time is too short, the output unit 150 blinks, for example, between the position a and the position b in FIG. If the second time is too short, the position b is displayed blinking. The output unit 150 may change the display mode according to whether the change speed acquired based on the position detection unit 210 is larger or smaller than a predetermined value with respect to the change speed based on the norm information.

[Effect of Fifth Embodiment]
As described above, according to the fifth embodiment, since the swing timing can be calculated based on the head movement, the user is made to recognize the difference between the ideal swing timing and the user swing timing. There is an effect that can be.

<Sixth Embodiment>
[Judge the quality of head movement]
FIG. 10 shows the configuration of the eyeglasses 100 of the sixth embodiment. 10 differs from FIGS. 2 and 4 in that it includes a position detection unit 210 and a sound detection unit 190.

  The storage unit 170 stores a target value of the difference between the position of the glasses 100 at the timing when the user starts swinging and the position of the glasses 100 at the timing when the user hits the ball. The control unit 180 determines that the difference between the position of the glasses 100 detected by the position detection unit 210 at the timing when the user starts swinging and the position of the glasses 100 detected by the position detection unit 210 at the sound detection timing is relative to the target value. If the value is larger than the predetermined value, a warning is displayed on the output unit 150.

  As an example, the control unit 180 detects the timing at which the user starts swinging according to the following procedure. The control unit 180 causes the output unit 150 to output light or sound at a first output timing, a second output timing, and a third output timing over a plurality of times. The control unit 180 may determine that the timing at which the user starts swinging at the first output timing immediately before the sound detection timing.

  For example, in the glasses 100 shown in FIG. 1, the control unit 180 lights the light emitting element 152-8 at the first output timing, lights the light emitting element 152-1 at the second output timing, and emits light at the third output timing. The element 152-8 is turned on after being turned on. The controller 180 turns on the light emitting element 152-8 after turning on the light emitting element 152-8, the light emitting element 152-1, and the light emitting element 152-8 at the first output timing, the second output timing, and the third output timing, respectively. Repeat the operation to turn off.

  In the addressed state, the user takes the timing while watching the repeated display, starts swinging at the first output timing, and hits the golf ball near the third output timing. The control unit 180 acquires the sound detection timing from the sound detection unit 190 near the third output timing. When the third output timing closest to the acquired sound detection timing is the nth (n is a natural number) third output timing, the control unit 180 determines that the user has started swinging at the nth first output timing. to decide.

  FIG. 11 is a conceptual diagram of a method for determining the quality of head movement. In the figure, the horizontal axis indicates the position of the glasses 100 in the horizontal direction, and the vertical axis indicates the position of the glasses 100 in the vertical direction. ● indicates the position of the glasses 100 at the first output timing at which the user should start swinging. ○ indicates the target position of the glasses 100 at the third output timing at which the user should hit the ball. The vector of the difference between the position at the first output timing at which the swing should be started and the target position at the third output timing at which the ball should be hit is (x0, y0).

  The control unit 180 acquires the position of the glasses 100 at the timing when the user starts swinging and the position of the glasses 100 at the sound detection timing, and calculates a difference vector indicating a difference between these positions. For example, it is assumed that the difference vector is (x1, y1) as indicated by □ shown in FIG. When the difference between (x1, y1) and (x0, y0) is larger than a predetermined value, the control unit 180 informs the user that the head position at the moment of hitting the ball is shifted to the upper right. A warning display is output to the output unit 150. When the difference vector is (x2, y2) as Δ shown in FIG. 11, the control unit 180 warns that the head position is shifted to the lower left. The control unit 180 may display information indicating the position of the head on the information terminal connected to the glasses 100.

  The control unit 180 may display a warning on the output unit 150 in a manner corresponding to the amount of deviation. Further, the control unit 180 may display the warning display based on the amount of deviation in the horizontal direction and the warning display based on the amount of deviation in the vertical direction in different modes. For example, when the horizontal deviation is large, the control unit 180 displays a warning using the light emitting element 152 of the right lens shown in FIG. 6, and when the vertical deviation is large, the control unit 180 A warning is displayed using the light emitting element 152.

[Effect of the sixth embodiment]
According to the sixth embodiment, by using the sound detection unit 190 and the position detection unit 210, the movement of the user's head during a swing can be calculated with high accuracy. As a result, by comparing the ideal head movement and the head movement during the swing, there is an effect that the user can grasp the problem related to the head movement.
