Bluetooth, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), infrared data association (IrDA), Ultra Wideband (UWB), ZigBee, and the like can be used as a short range communication technology.

The network connection unit 160 can detect the connection state of the network and the transmission / reception speed of the network.

Data received via the network connection 160 may be output via the output 140, stored via the memory 180, or transmitted to other electronic devices in the vicinity via the local communication module.

The network connection unit 160 can receive, from the dart game apparatus 100, information for calculating a score using the position of the dart pin. Alternatively, it may receive location information from the dart pins. In addition, the network connection unit 160 transmits the number of throws of the dart pins left to the dart game player 100 to the dart game apparatus 100, the progress of the dart game, the scoring status of the dart game player, A throwing order of the dart game player, information of the dart game player, and information of the opponent player of the dart game player. The above-described information is merely an example, and the dart game server 300 (see FIG. 3) can transmit / receive all kinds of information related to the dart game device 100 and the dart game.

Also, the network connection unit 160 may receive user identification information from the dart game apparatus 100. [

The player recognition unit 170 recognizes the unique information of the user at a remote location by using radio waves (Radio Frequency Identification) technology, which is a type of the local communication technology. For example, a user may have a card containing an RFID module, a mobile terminal, or a unique dart game equipment, e.g., a personal dart equipment that he owns. Information identifying the user (e.g., a personal ID of a user registered in a server DB (see FIG. 3), an identification code, etc.) may be recorded in the RFID module carried by the user.

The memory 180 may store a program for the operation of the controller 190 and temporarily store input / output data (e.g., a phone book, a message, a still image, a moving picture, etc.). The memory 180 may store data on vibration and volume of various patterns outputted when a touch is input on the touch screen.

In addition, the memory 180 may store various data for calculating scores according to the batting area based on the position of the dart pins. For example, various logic for computing the strike area may be stored in the memory 180. For example, algorithms for calculating the area of a figure to obtain the area of the figure formed by connecting the positions of the dart pins may be stored in the memory 180.

Further, in a further aspect of the present invention, predetermined logic may be stored in the memory 180 to calculate a score according to the location and striking area of the dart pins.

The predetermined logic may be characterized by giving a point of addition as the striking area formed by the dart pin is wider. According to another embodiment of the present invention, the predetermined logic may be characterized by giving a point of addition as the strike area formed by the dart pin becomes narrower.

Alternatively, the predetermined logic is characterized in that the batting area formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player is determined as a score area in which a score is given only to the first player within a predetermined period of time. Further, the predetermined logic may be such that the strike area formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player is a predetermined period A score area for giving a weight to the first player is determined.

The predetermined logic according to a further aspect of the present invention is characterized in that a penalty is given to the second player when the dart pin thrown from the second player is plugged into the batting area formed by the dart pin thrown by the first player . In addition, the predetermined logic may be characterized in that a weight is given when a strike area is formed by a dart pin projected at a predetermined position of the dart target.

The memory 180 may be a flash memory type, a hard disk type, a multimedia card micro type, a card type memory (e.g., SD or XD memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), SRAM (Static Random Access Memory), ROM (Read Only Memory), EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory), PROM A disk, and / or an optical disk. The dart game device 100 may operate in association with a web storage that performs the storage function of the memory 180 on the Internet.

The controller 190 typically controls the overall operation of the dart game device 100. For example, in the case of a dart game, the hit position of the dart pin may be detected based at least in part on the signal received from the sensing unit 120, and a score corresponding to the sensed hit position may be calculated for each game participant have. The control unit 190 may proceed to play the darts based on the scores accumulated for each game participant.

The control unit 190 may perform a pattern recognition process for recognizing an operation input, a handwriting input, and the like, which are performed on the touch screen or the camera, as characters or images. In addition, the controller may perform speech recognition using a STT (Speech-to-Text) function that can recognize a voice input through the microphone as a character.

The control unit 190 may include a position coordinate assignment unit 191, an area calculation unit 193, and a score calculation unit 195.

As used herein, the terms "striking area" and "striking area" are often interchangeable. In addition, the term "strike zone" as used herein may refer to an area that allows a player to throw a dart pin by providing a game mode based on strike area. Additionally, the terms "area calculating section" and "striking area calculating section" used herein may often be interchangeable.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the position coordinate assigning unit 191 may assign position coordinates corresponding to the hit position of the dart pin determined by the position determining unit 121. [

The position coordinates according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may include a x-axis (horizontal direction) and a y-axis (vertical direction) orthogonal to each other with the (0,0) Direction). ≪ / RTI > Thus, each of the receiving grooves included in the dart target 110 is designated in the form of (+ x, + y), (+ x, -y), (-x, + y) . When the position determining unit 121 determines the inserted receiving groove and / or the segment of the dart pin, position coordinates corresponding thereto can be given.

 According to one embodiment of the present invention, the position coordinates corresponding to the striking positions of one or more dart pins that are plugged into the same segment may be different. That is, different position coordinates may be given to the receiving grooves included in the dart target 110.

According to a further embodiment of the invention, the positional coordinates corresponding to the striking positions of the one or more dart pins inserted into the same segment may be the same. For example, each of the receiving grooves included in the dart target 110 may be given position coordinates for each segment constituted by the receiving grooves. That is, the positional coordinates corresponding to the hit position of the dart pin may be the predetermined position coordinates given to the segment to which the dart pin is attached. According to a further embodiment of the present invention, the predetermined position coordinate may be the position coordinate of the center point of the segment. Or it may be the lower right vertex of the segment. This will be described later with reference to FIG.

The area calculating unit 193 according to the embodiment of the present invention can calculate the hit area of the dart pin based on the hit position of the dart pin determined by the position determining unit 121. [ For example, the area of the graphic form formed by connecting the impact positions of the dart pins inserted into the dart target 110 can be calculated. To do this, algorithms that calculate the area of the graphic form can be used.

Alternatively, the strike area can be calculated based on the segment of the dart target 110 corresponding to the inserted dart pin. Additionally, the striking area of the dart pin may be calculated according to predetermined logic.

Alternatively, referring to the foregoing description, in more detail, the dart game apparatus 100 may map the position coordinate value (x, y) to each receiving groove of the segments of the dart target 110. When the dart pin reaches a specific receiving groove of the dart target, the sensing portion 120 can sense which dart pin has reached the receiving groove. Further, the sensing unit 120 may transmit the information about the sensed receiving recess to the position determiner 121. The position determination unit 121 may determine the mapped coordinate value corresponding to the sensed accommodation groove. When the projection to three or more dart pins is completed, the area calculating unit 193 can calculate the strike area formed by the dart pins based on the coordinate values determined corresponding to the position where the dart pin reached.

Further, the camera may be installed in association with the dart game device at a position where the dart target 110 can be photographed, so that the camera portion 150 can photograph and / or capture the position reached by the dart pin. When projection onto three or more dart pins is completed, the camera unit 150 can capture the position reached by the dart pins and transmit the captured image to the area calculation unit 193. The area calculating unit 193 can calculate the strike area by the dart pin through image processing of the captured image.

More specifically, the strike area 1001 shown in FIG. 8 may be the strike area formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player. Also, the dart pins 512 may be dart pins that are thrown by the second player.

In the dart game mode according to the embodiment of the present invention, the strike area 1001 formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player may be formed as a striking area where the first player can score points within a predetermined period.

Further, when the strike area 1002 formed by the dart pins 512 thrown by the second player is included in the strike area 1001 formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player, The strike area 1002 formed by one dart pin 512 may be formed as an area where neither the first player nor the second player can score points.

In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, it is assumed that there is a case where the dart pins thrown by the first player are plugged into the strike area 1002 formed by the dart pins 512 thrown by the second player. According to an embodiment of the present invention, even if the strike area 1002 is included in the strike area 1001 formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player, the first player may not obtain a score.

Further, even if the strike area is formed by the dart pin thrown by the second player, since the strike area 1002 is included in the strike area 1001 formed by the first player, This may not be possible.

In other words, the second player can reduce the hit area where the first player can acquire the score by risking the player to abandon his / her score acquisition.

In addition, when the strike area formed by the dart pins thrown by the second player includes one or more segments in the strike area formed by the dart pins previously thrown by the first player, the second player is given a weight A penalty may be given to the second player.

Referring to FIG. 9, it can be seen that the strike area 1001 formed on the dart target 110 is the area generated by connecting the strike position of the dart pin thrown by the dart game player.

More specifically, the strike area 1001 shown in FIG. 9 may be the striking area formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player. Also, the dart pin 612 may be a dart pin that is thrown by the first player.

In the dart game mode according to the embodiment of the present invention, the strike area 1001 formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player may be formed as a striking area in which the second player can score points within a predetermined period.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, if the strike area 1001 formed by the dart pins laid by the first player is wide as shown in Fig. 8, the strike area formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player 1102) is narrower, the second player can easily obtain the score. Thus, players can try to form a narrower strike area to hinder each other's score acquisition. Therefore, the interest of the dart game can be improved.

10 exemplarily shows a fourth embodiment of a dart game mode that can be provided to a player.

Referring to FIG. 10, it can be seen that the strike area 710, the strike area 720, and the strike area 730 formed on the dart target 110 are generated by connecting the strike positions of the dart pins thrown by the dart game player.

In detail, it can be seen that the strike area 710 is formed by connecting the strike positions 701, 703 and 705 of the dart pins. Also, it can be seen that the strike area 720 is formed by connecting the strike positions 701, 703 and 707 of the dart pins. It can be seen that the striking area 730 is formed by connecting the striking positions 701, 703 and 709 of the dart pins. That is, it can be confirmed that the strike area 730 has the largest strike area and the strike area 710 has the smallest strike area.

Based on the predetermined logic according to an embodiment of the present invention, the larger the strike area formed by the dart pins, the more points can be added.

That is, the addition point given to the striking area 730 may be given an addition point higher than the addition point given to the striking area 710. Further, the addition point given to the striking area 710 may be given an addition point lower than the addition point given to the striking area 720.

The predetermined logic, as described above, can be characterized in that a larger hit area formed by the dart pins gives a point of addition.

Conversely, the predetermined logic may be characterized by giving a point of addition as the striking area formed by the dart pin becomes narrower. This will be described later with reference to FIG.

FIG. 11 exemplarily shows a fifth embodiment of a dart game mode that can be provided to a player.

Referring to FIG. 11, it can be seen that the strike area 810, strike area 820, strike area 830 formed on the dart target 110 is the area generated by connecting the strike position of the dart pin thrown by the dart game player. In particular, it can be seen that the impact area 810 has the largest impact area and the impact area 830 has the smallest impact area.

Based on the predetermined logic according to an embodiment of the present invention, the smaller the striking area formed by the dart pin, the more points can be added.

That is, the addition point given to the striking area 830 may be given an addition point higher than the addition point given to the striking area 810 and the striking area 820. This reflects the requirement for a high level of training in fine hitting, and a game mode such as increasingly narrow area matching may be provided.

12 exemplarily shows a sixth embodiment of a dart game mode that can be provided to a player.

Referring to FIG. 12, it can be seen that the strike area 910 and the strike area 920 formed on the dart target 110 are the areas generated by connecting the strike positions of the dart pins thrown by the dart game player . Particularly, it can be seen that a blowing area 920 is generated by using the bulls eye 901 as the vertex of the dart target 110 as a vertex.

Based on the predetermined logic according to an embodiment of the present invention, weighting can be given if the strike area is formed by the dart pins projected at predetermined positions of the dart target.

That is, the dart game device 100 (see FIG. 1) may present the dart game player to hit a specific position of the dart target 110 to form a strike area by the thrown dart pin. For example, the bulls eye 901 can be presented as a vertex that forms the strike area.

Referring to FIG. 12, it can be seen that the strike area 910 did not hit the bulls eye 901, and the strike area 920 hit the bulls eye 901. Therefore, even if the area of the strike area 910 and the area of the strike area 920 are the same, different points can be calculated because the added points are different from each other. That is, in this case, a score higher than the strike area 910 may be assigned to the strike area 920.

Additionally, a weight may be given if the strike area formed by the thrown dart pins comprises a predetermined position of the dart target. For example, since the striking area 910 includes the bulls eye 901 within the formed striking area 910, the striking area 910 may be weighted.

FIG. 13 exemplarily shows a seventh embodiment of a dart game mode that can be provided to a player.

Referring to FIG. 13, it can be seen that the strike area 1001 formed on the dart target 110 is the area generated by connecting the strike position of the dart pin thrown by the dart game player.

More specifically, the strike area 1001 shown in FIG. 13 may be the striking area formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player. Also, the dart pins 512 may be dart pins that are thrown by the second player.

Based on the predetermined logic according to the embodiment of the present invention, the strike area formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player can be determined to be a score area giving a score to only the first player within a predetermined period.

13, when a dart pin 512 struck by a second player is stuck in a target area included in a strike area 1001 formed by a dart pin cast by a first player, Score may not be provided to the player. Therefore, although the second player hits the dart pin in the single 7 area, seven points may not be added to the dart score of the second player.

Furthermore, the above-described predetermined logic may remain in effect only within a predetermined period of time. For example, throwing a dart pin 3 times may be set to a predetermined period. Alternatively, it may be set to a predetermined period that the dart striking opportunity of throwing the dart pin three times is performed three times. Alternatively, the period from the time of the game to the end of the game may be set to a predetermined period.

Therefore, when the chance of dart hitting three times of throwing dart pins is set to a predetermined period, if the chance of dart hitting throwing dart pins is performed for the fourth time, the previously formed score area may lose its effect have.

That is, when the dart batting chance of throwing the dart pin 3 times is performed four times, the batting area 1001 formed by the dart pin thrown by the first player is no longer determined as the area for acquiring the unique score of the first player . Accordingly, when the dart batting opportunity for throwing the dart pins 3 times is performed for the fourth time, the second player places the batting area 1001 formed by the dart pins fired by the existing first player as dart pins .

Based on predetermined logic according to a further embodiment of the present invention, a score that penalizes the second player when the dart pin thrown from the second player is plugged into the strike area formed by the dart pin thrown by the first player Area. ≪ / RTI >

That is, when the dart pin 512 hit by the second player hits the target area included in the strike area 1001 formed by the dart pin thrown by the first player, a penalty may be given to the second player have. That is, although the second player hits the dart pin in the single 7 area, seven points are not added to the dart score of the second player, and -7 points may be awarded as a penalty. The above-described penalty is only an example according to an embodiment of the present invention, and various methods of penalty can be given.

Further, in accordance with a further embodiment of the present invention, the strike area formed by the three dart pins fired by the first player may be determined as a target area in which the second player can throw and score points within a predetermined period of time . For example, a dart pin thrown by the second player may be awarded only when the dart pin is placed within the area set by the first player. That is, referring to FIG. 10, scores can be given only when the dart pins 512 thrown by the second player are inserted into the strike area 1001 formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player. Also, after a predetermined period of time, the second player may be allowed to cause the first player to generate a scoreable target area, which may cause the dart game player to be interested.

More specifically, the strike area for the second player can be formed through the projection of the dart pin by the first player three or more times. Then, the second player must throw a dart pin within the area formed by the first player, and a score corresponding to the segment may be provided to the second player. After one turn, the second player projects three or more dart pins to form a strike area for the first player. Then, the first player must throw a dart pin within the area formed by the second player, and the score corresponding to that segment may be provided to the first player.

Therefore, in view of the player forming the strike area of the dart pin, the area is reduced to a minimum so that the subsequent player can not acquire the score, and the subsequent player must throw the dart pin in the formed area. The game mode can further enhance the fun of the dart game.

14 exemplarily shows an eighth embodiment of a dart game mode that can be provided to a player.

Referring to FIG. 14, it can be seen that the strike area 1101 formed on the dart target 110 is the area generated by connecting the strike position of the dart pin thrown by the dart game player.

Based on the predetermined logic according to a further embodiment of the present invention, the strike area formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player may be determined as a score area that weights the first player within a predetermined period of time.

That is, when the first player hits the dart pin 612 in the target area included in the batting area 1101 formed by the dart pin fired by the first player, the first player can be weighted have. That is, although the first player hits the dart pin in the single 7 area, seven or more points may be added to the dart score of the first player.

As described above, according to the present invention, various dart game methods are proposed in a more entertaining manner, and the enjoyment of the dart game player can be improved.

Although not shown, there may be a ninth embodiment of a dart game mode that may be provided to a player.

For example, the dart game may present a glass math symbol and allow the dart game player to form a strike area appropriate to the math symbol.

Referring to FIG. 11, the player can perform various games within the batting area after forming a batting area capable of acquiring a score through throwing of a dart pin. For example, assume that the batting area formed by the player is 810. The player may throw a dart pin based on the glass calculation presented by the dart game device within the batting area 810 where he can obtain a score. For example, if a keyword indicating arithmetic subtraction such as 'subtraction' and '-' is presented, the player can form the narrowest strike area that he can form. At this time, when the batting area formed by the player is 820, a lower score may be provided than when the batting area formed by the player is 830.

Further, there may be a tenth embodiment of the dart game mode that may be provided to the player.

A player having a small difference between the predetermined batting area and the batting area formed by the dart pins thrown by the player, or a player having a large difference between the predetermined batting area and the batting area formed by the dart pins thrown by the player, A game mode may be provided.

11, it is assumed that a predetermined striking area 810 exists. It is assumed that the strike area formed by the dart pins thrown by the first player is 830 and the strike area formed by the dart pins thrown by the second player is 820. [

Based on the predetermined logic, a player having a large difference between the predetermined batting area 810 and the batting area formed by the player's dart pins can win. That is, the first player can win.

Alternatively, based on the predetermined logic, a player having a small difference in the batting area formed by the predetermined hit area 810 and the dart pin cast by the player can win. That is, the second player may win.

Additionally, there may be an eleventh embodiment of a dart game mode that may be provided to the player.

The dart game mode according to an embodiment of the present invention is a mode in which a player can throw a dart pin at a chance of throwing a next dart pin on the basis of the strike area formed by the dart pin thrown by the player, And the like.

For example, the narrower strike area formed by the dart pin thrown by the player can provide a longer time to throw the dart pin to the player at the next dart pin throw opportunity. Alternatively, a time limit for throwing a dart pin to the opponent player of the player may be given.

Conversely, the wider the strike area created by the dart pin thrown by the player, the shorter the dart pin throw time allowed for the player in the next dart pin throw opportunity.

According to a further aspect of the present invention, there may be a twelfth embodiment of a dart game mode that may be provided to the player.

In the dart game mode according to a further aspect of the present invention, when a figure drawn by connecting position coordinates corresponding to a hit position of a dart pin is a line segment, weighting or penalty is given based on the length of the line segment It can also be a feature.

For example, if a total of three dart pins can be thrown during a single dart pin throw opportunity, a weight can be given if at least two hit positions are equal. Alternatively, a penalty may be given when two or more hit positions are the same.

Further, if the position coordinates of at least two of the position coordinates corresponding to the hit position of the dart pin are the same, the hit area may be determined as zero.

Further, according to a further embodiment of the present invention, a game may be provided based on the hit area, such as 'land hitting', 'chin checker', 'chess', 'go', 'long' and 'monopoly'.

For example, provision may be made to provide the widest area to the person forming the narrowest strike area and to take one of the areas occupied by the other player. Or the opportunity to throw one more dart pin to the person who formed the strike area based on the presented conditions.
