Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a large image display device in a stadium such as a baseball field for displaying various data such as scores and player names. .

[Conventional technology]

FIG. 5 is a front view of a large-sized image display device in a conventional stadium, and the drawing shows a baseball field as an example.
In the figure, 1 is a team name display portion, 2 is a defense position display portion, 3 is a player name display portion, 4 is a batted lamp display portion, and black and white of the defense position display portion 2 are reversed. 5 is an inning-related display section, 6 is a team mark display section, 7 is a score and hit / error number display section, 8 is an official record judgment display section, 9 is a referee position display section, 10 is a referee name display section, and 11 is an average. A display unit, 12 is a home run display unit, and 13 is a ball speed display unit using a speed gun.

Of the display units 1 to 13, for example, the inning-related display unit 5,
Referee position display section 9, average display section 11 "A", "V"
, The characters “H” and “R” on the home run display unit 12 are fixed display units, and the others are variable display units. A large image display device is used for the variable display section. As described above, the conventional large-sized image display device is combined with the fixed display unit, and the fixed format is also used as the display format of the variable display unit.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

Since the large-sized image display device in the conventional stadium is configured as described above, the display contents are limited by the fixed format. However, recently, stadiums such as baseball fields have been used for various purposes such as various competitions and events, and therefore large-sized image display devices are not only used for displaying single sports such as baseball but also for various events. The display has become necessary. However, the conventional large-scale image display device created by a fixed format dedicated to a single game such as baseball has a problem that it cannot correspond to a display matched to various events.

This invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems. In addition to displaying various events in a matching manner, the display position and size of the conventional fixed display can be freely selected and displayed. The purpose is to obtain a large-scale image display device in the stadium.

[Means for solving problems]

A large-scale image display device in a stadium according to the present invention inputs display contents corresponding to contents of various competitions, events, etc. through an input section, and creates display data of an arbitrary format according to the input display contents. Then, charactor data is created based on the display data, and the charactor data is added to the video signal.

[Action]

The large image display device in the stadium in this invention is
By inputting various parameters by operating the input unit, the display is performed in free format.

In the video processing device 23, 33 is a central processing unit that controls the interpretation and execution of instructions, 34 is an RS-232C serial interface that sends and receives data to and from the display data processing device 22,
35 is a memory used for storing programs and various data, 36 is a character control boat that performs character display processing to create character data, 37 is an input / output boat that transmits and receives data, 39 is a video signal input Terminal 40 is a color demodulation / synchronization circuit that performs color demodulation and synchronization separation of the video signal, 41 is an A / D converter that converts the video signal output from the color demodulation / synchronization circuit 40 to digital video data, and 42 is an A
Video data from the D / D converter 41 and character control boat
A frame memory for storing character data and mask data from 36, 43 a data latch circuit for latching the data read from the frame memory 42, 44 a color demodulator
A timing control circuit that creates a timing signal based on the synchronization signal from the synchronization circuit 40, and 45 is an address signal or data latch circuit of the frame memory 42 in synchronization with the timing signal.
An address control circuit that generates a latch signal and a row selection signal of 43, 46 is a column selection circuit that selects the columns of the matrix of the display board 24 according to the data from the data latch circuit 43, and 47 is a display board that responds to the row selection signal. A row selection circuit for selecting rows of 24 matrices.

Next, the operation will be described. Explaining a baseball field as an example, the display contents relating to baseball information such as a baseball score input from the keyboard 27 are displayed by a display command of the keyboard 27, and based on the data input from the console 25, a central processing unit.
