Hereinafter, a game system using a customized 3D printing robot according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1, a game system using a customized 3D printing robot according to the present invention includes a user terminal 30, a main server (not shown) S, and an offline output unit 50. [

An application including a game function accessible to the main server S is mounted on the user terminal 30. The user can access the image providing unit 20 of the main server S through the user terminal 30, And can receive information on each part of the robot character, and can combine, assemble, and select various robot characters for each part through the application, so that the game provided by the main server S can proceed.

The user can confirm the design information for each part provided through the application and customize the body 110 and the base kit 120 by selecting the parts according to his / her taste (refer to FIG. 2a), and the customized information Is stored in the storage unit 40 of the main server S, which will be described later, and is used as output information for 3D progress of characters and offline real robots for game progress.

At this time, the user can utilize the game system of the present invention so that the user can select the concrete structure (e.g., the shape) of the body 110 and the base kit 120 based on the 3D image information (design information) In addition, design can be selected.

Here, the concept of design information per part means that a plurality of design concepts are adopted for individual parts including various accessories constituting the appearance of the robot (refer to FIG. 5).

That is, when the body 110 is a semi-humanoid robot composed of a head, a torso, and an arm, and the base kit 120 includes driving means having a driving member 121 connected to the caterpillar, ,

The driving member 121, the base frame 122, and the like are all made of separate parts (not shown) as the body 110 by using the base, the accessories, and the base kit 120 that can be attached to each part of the head, the trunk, And these individual parts are stored in advance in the 3D image modeling unit 20 by the seller. At this time, a plurality of (few to many, several dozens of) kinds of designs are designed for each of the individual parts, ).

The user directly selects the parts constituting one robot individually according to his / her taste, and the appearance of the body 110 and the base kit 120 is determined by assembling the selected parts.

Therefore, the customized 3D printing robot according to the present invention can customize the entire design of the robot directly, unlike the conventional robot, so that it is possible to provide a user-specific robot. In other words, for example, when 10 pieces of the robot's entire parts and 10 pieces of each part are adopted, the robot can be assembled into 100 different designs in total, and when the user updates the design information described later There is no practical limit to the number of designs that can be combined.

At this time, the application installed in the user terminal 30 can display design information of each part simply by providing 3D images, display the various assembled parts of the selected parts to the user (refer to FIGS. 4A to 4C) (See Fig. 4D and Fig. 4E), and further, it is possible to simulate the operation for each part in the assembled state.

In addition, the application may support the function of displaying the rotation and movement for each individual part or adjusting the size and color of each individual part.

The application includes a file input / output function for transferring assembly information (or component selection information) customized to the user's taste to the storage unit 40, storing and reloading the information.

When the user finally confirms and saves the appearance design of the robot character through the application, the stored robot design is used as a robot character necessary for the game progress and transmits it to the main server S as a purchase signal (order signal) An offline game and an off-line robot can be utilized at the same time by outputting the components as a three-dimensional image through the offline output unit 50 including the 3D printer and actually assembling and receiving the robot.

In particular, the present invention is a game provided through the user terminal 30, and can be used for coding training using logic, for example, Program.

When a program for coding training using such a logic is utilized, conventionally, memorizing training for computer programming or algorithm understanding is performed by manipulating commands like a Lego block, and the character is logically moved, Can be easily learned step by step.

Coding training programs help students learn the logic of how to implement and operate objects such as puzzles and blocks and assemble robots,

An example of a coding education program is 'Scratch', an educational programming language developed by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

'Scratch' provides step-by-step coding learning for the programming fundamentals by providing coding education effects such as stacking blocks or moving characters to create a new program according to a certain logic or principle.

FIG. 2B is an illustration of a game-based coding training program for moving a robot character between blocks according to a predetermined principle, or for solving a problem by matching blocks (or puzzles), such as 'scratch' Robot characters can be used to play games and watch them as animations, which can improve game accessibility and concentration.

In addition, according to the present invention, the robot character, which is customized by the user in such a manner as described above, is printed in 3D through the offline output unit 50, and the robot can be customized by utilizing the acquired programming knowledge In particular, since the principle of operation of each part of a robot can be learned logically first through game and applied to an actual robot based on this, it is possible to produce a coded education not only as a theoretical learning but also as a natural extension and connection Thus, the effect of coding education can be further enhanced.

In this case, the robot character directly customized by the user is utilized not only for a game for coding education but also for a confrontation mode or a special stage challenge mode with another user through an online connection, and further, And robot fighting using part-by-part operation, thereby providing coding education using both on-line and off-line and providing play using the same.

The user terminal 30 may be a smart device such as a general smart phone or a tablet PC that can download the application through a general market or a general PC that can access the main server S to download the application, Or an electronic device such as a joystick or joypad and a radio controller equipped with the application and the PC function may be utilized.

For the reference, the user terminal 30 provided in the present invention can use a DGPS chip to enable location tracking through a bluetooth module, an infrared communication module, a wired and wireless LAN card, and a GPS (Global Positioning System) And a predetermined communication module such as a built-in wireless communication device,

It is a concept that collectively refers to all kinds of terminals capable of performing a certain calculation operation by mounting a microprocessor.

In addition, the application installed in the user terminal 30 can perform a function of directly controlling the operation of the robot manufactured by data transmission / reception.

Next, the main server S of the present invention basically includes a network unit (not shown) for online game connection and information transmission / reception, etc. so that the user terminal 30 can connect and download and / And an Internet network-based device or web server including the image providing unit 20 and the storing unit 40. [

Hereinafter, a description of a detailed configuration of a known network unit applicable to a general game system, such as providing and playing a game for a coding education via an online connection, will be omitted, and the image providing unit 20, which is one of the core of the present invention, 40 will be described in more detail.

The image providing unit 20 stores different design information for the individual parts of the body 110 and the base kit 120 that constitute a real robot body to be described later, So that the information can be provided to the user terminal 30.

After receiving the unique identification information of the user terminal 30, the image providing unit 20 matches the unique identification information stored therein, and if the same is identical to the unique identification information stored in the user terminal 30, And an IP authentication server for transmitting design information for each part.

The storage unit 40 receives customization information of the selected body 110 and the base kit 120 through the application and stores the received customization information.

Here, the customization information stored in the storage unit 40 may include not only the information (final product) selected by the user by selecting design information of all the components, but also information (intermediate product) ≪ / RTI &

The storage unit 40 stores these results so that the user can retrieve, reload, and change stored information at any time through the application of the user terminal 30.

The image providing unit 20, the storage unit 40, and the network unit may be integrated into one device as a kind of database.

Next, the offline output unit 50 including the 3D printer loads the customizing information of the storage unit 40 when the user completes the order through the user terminal 30, And the base kit 120 are individually output as a 3D image for each component.

The parts that have been output in this way are assembled by using the assembling means 130 described later by the seller according to the delivery request information transmitted by the user through the application and then delivered to the user to the user, To the user so that the user can assemble them directly.

The 3D printer individually outputs the three-dimensional image according to the design information of each part stored in the image providing unit 20, that is, the 3D image information of each part,

The 3D printer may be a multi-layer (rapid prototyping) output device for laminating and outputting a three-dimensional image using various powder materials such as plastic, rubber, metal, ceramic, and nylon, or a cutting type cutter for cutting out the appearance of a solid material block Various known 3D printers are used.

In addition, the 3D printer may be an output device equipped with a customizing tool and a 3D scanner, and the configuration of such a 3D printer is well known in the art and will not be described in detail.

Next, the progress of the game using the game system of the present invention, and the production and provision service of the robot will be described.

First, the user downloads the free application distributed by the seller to the market or the like to the user terminal 30 such as a smart phone (in the case of a separate radio controller, the application is installed in advance) .

The user confirms design information of each part of the body 110 and the base kit 120 of the robot stored in advance by the seller using the application, checks the entire design of the assembled robot by designing the individual parts using the application, And sets and completes the robot character necessary for the game progress.

At this time, the part design information that has been selected by the user during customization is stored in the storage unit 40 in real time, or is stored in the storage unit 40 when the user makes a separate storage request.

The user saves the intermediate result information of the customization in the storage unit 40 and then reloads it so that the entire exterior design of the robot is determined in various angles with sufficient time to select the design of the part, .

When the user selects and saves all the design information for each part of the robot, the robot character is generated based on the selected design information, and the game can be utilized as the character of the main character of the coding education program provided by the main server. The robot character information can be changed and the parts can be changed or upgraded. The robot character information thus changed can be stored in the storage unit 40 and reloaded by the user whenever necessary.

When the user makes a purchase request to the main server S for a robot character whose design has been changed by using the application, the main server S loads customization information finally stored in the storage unit 40 and transmits the customized information to the offline output unit 50 send.

The 3D printer of the offline output unit 50 outputs a three-dimensional image for each part on the basis of the loaded customizing information,

Manufactured parts are shipped before they are assembled, or the finished robot is delivered after the seller assembles them.

At this time, the user can order additional components or specifications such as the driving member 121 by using the application.

When a general PC is used as the user terminal 30, the user downloads design information for each part from the image providing unit 20, and the user directly changes the external design of the part using the 3D modeling program, (40).

In this case, when the user directly changes the design of the part and stores it in the storage unit 40, the storage unit 40 collates the updated design information with the design information previously stored in the image providing unit 20 The updated design information is transmitted to the image providing unit 20 and stored so that an open game system capable of expanding the design selection width of the robot to the user using the present invention can be constructed have.

Hereinafter, the configuration of a customized 3D printing robot actually manufactured through the above-described game system will be described in detail.

The main body that is output and assembled for each part through the offline output unit 50 of the present invention realizes the 3D characterization of the robot character customized through the application as described above, As shown in Figs. 4E, 5, and 6, the robot main body 100 is mainly composed of a body 110 forming the overall appearance of the robot and a base kit 120 serving as a base of the robot.

The fact that the body 110 forms the overall appearance of the robot means that the base kit 120 functions as a main factor in determining the appearance design relative to the base kit 120, And the width of the design decision merely means that the body 110 is larger than the base kit 120. [

First, the body 110 is assembled by assembling various components. For example, in the case of a semi-humanoid robot as shown in the drawing, basically, the head, the trunk, and the arm are assembled through respective joints And the base kit 120 can function as a member for erecting and moving the robot in place of the legs.

Of course, unlike the drawings, all the components of the complete humanoid robot including the body 110, the head, the trunk, the arms, and the legs can be assembled and manufactured for each part. At this time, It is assembled on the sole of the foot and will be used as a member for standing up and moving the robot.

In addition, the body 110 may be manufactured in various designs such as the appearance of the animal-type robot and the appearance of the vehicle-type robot, and the base kit 120 is shown in the same design, The detailed configuration of the body 11 and the base kit 120 is the same as described above.

In this way, the body 110 and the base kit 120, which are customized by the user individually selecting the parts of the robot character, are assembled with each other, and the body 110 is coupled to the upper part of the base kit 120, Is completed.

The body 110 may be individually operated for each part (here, the operation includes not only an automatic operation through the driving means described later, but also a manual operation in which the user manually adjusts the shape, position, etc. of each part) The main components constituting the body 110 can be assembled into an articulated structure (for example, a joint structure of a spherical joint doll).

The base kit 120 includes driving means and can be automatically driven by using a user terminal or various consoles or pre-stored programming or various sensors.

3A and 3B, the base kit 120 includes a base frame 122 to which the body 110 is coupled,

And driving means composed of a driving member 121 including one or more motors, various gears and / or shafts, and wheels or joints that are operated to receive the driving force of the motor.
