Aiming device for addressing of golf club {Aiming device for addressing of golf club}

The present invention relates to an aiming device for an address of a golf club, and more specifically, by setting a reference angle and providing information on the address, the user can easily perform an address in a direction in which a golf ball is to be hit. It relates to an aiming device for the address of a golf club to enable.

The address of a golf club is when a golfer takes a stance and touches the club on the ground.

In addition, aiming refers to setting the hitting direction to the target point where the golfer wants to send the ball.

In general, golf games are played from the tee box to the hole cup by hitting the golf ball with a golf club such as a driver, iron, and putter. Apart from a good golf swing, aiming is very important for a good golf round at a golf course. It's important.

In particular, in the case of putting, the likelihood that the ball will be holed into the hole cup is increased when aiming is made taking into account the terrain curvature on the green in order to make the ball hole into the hole cup due to the terrain curvature on the green.

However, in the case of a tee shot, iron shot, or putting, when a golfer actually hits a golf ball, even though the golfer carefully observes the terrain in front of the hitting direction or the curvature of the terrain on the green. Golfers often do not fly in one aiming direction, and especially in the case of putting, even if the angle is slightly different from the one aiming direction, it is often seen that the hitting golf ball moves away from the hole cup.

Therefore, it is a situation in which a device capable of accurately performing an address in one direction of aiming and through which golfers can train their own address is required.

I can.

First, aiming is to aim at a target point by taking an address posture in the direction in which the golf ball is to be sent when the user hits the golf ball.

The main body 100 is a structure that surrounds and protects the inner structure of the aiming device 1. This body 100 includes a first casing 110, a second casing 120 and a coupling means 130.

The first casing 110 and the second casing 120 constitute the front and rear surfaces of the main body 100, and when the first casing 110 forms the front, the second casing 120 automatically Conversely, when the first casing 110 constitutes the back side, the second casing 120 may be automatically configured as the front side.

In the present invention, as an embodiment, the rear surface of the main body 100 will be described as being the second casing 120. The first casing 110 and the second casing 120 may be coupled to each other to form the body 100 having an empty interior.

The coupling means 130 is a component to be attached or coupled to the user's body. This coupling means 130 may be provided in the form of a clip on the first casing 110 or the second casing 120, for example. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the coupling means 130 has a groove formed in the second casing 120, which is the rear surface of the main body 100, and the groove formed in this way is in the vertical direction of the second casing 120. It may be provided to extend along. In addition, the coupling means 130 may be attached to or coupled to the user's body by being provided in a structure having an elastic force such as a torsion spring and being caught on one side of the user's clothing. In the present invention, a position at which the coupling means 130 is attached or coupled to the user's body may be variously implemented, but as an embodiment, it will be described as being coupled forward from the waist circumference of the user.

The first key input unit 200 is provided in the form of a button on the side of the main body 100 and transmits a signal based on a user's command to the control unit 800. That is, the user may transmit a user command by pressing the first key input unit 200, and the first key input unit 200 may transmit a signal for the user command to the control unit 800. For example, in order to select a menu for adjusting the size of sound and vibration in the aiming device 1, the user presses the first key input unit 200 to point to the menu and moves the currently indicated menu up and down. In response to a command, the first key input unit 200 may transmit a signal for a currently indicated menu to the controller 800 based on a user's command. In addition, for example, in order to select a menu for setting a reference direction or a reference angle, the user can move the menu selection up and down by pressing the first key input unit 200.

The sensing unit 300 is a component that detects the current position of the main body 100 and transmits the acquired orientation information to the controller 800. The sensing unit 300 may be composed of a plurality of sensors. For example, the sensing unit 300 may be configured with a gyro sensor, an acceleration sensor, or the like that interlocks with a Global Positioning System (GPS). Further, the orientation information is used to set a reference direction for aiming, to set a reference angle from the set reference direction, and to calculate a current angle for aiming performed by the user in real time from the reference direction. Here, the orientation refers to a position in which a point or direction in space indicates with respect to the direction of a reference. As for the orientation information, a gyro sensor and an acceleration sensor provided in the detection unit 300 are interlocked with GPS to detect the orientation in which the user is currently located.

Here, when the gyro sensor and the acceleration sensor detect the orientation of the user's position, the acceleration sensor corrects the orientation information detected by the gyro sensor.

By correcting the drift error value of the 3-axis gyro sensor according to the user's body rotation with the measured value of the acceleration sensor, the current front direction may be calculated. The drift error of the gyro sensor means that when the user takes the address posture while the main body 100 of the present invention is coupled or attached, when the user's body rotates left and right, the left and right rotation speeds are different. As a result, it refers to a phenomenon in which, as the user's left and right body rotation time continues, a cumulative error occurs in the measured value of the gyro sensor.

By correcting the drift error of the gyro sensor with the measured value of the acceleration sensor, it is possible to calculate an accurate front current orientation of the gyro sensor. This drift error is an inherent characteristic of a gyro sensor.

In the present invention, when the user rotates the body, the gyro sensor measures the rotation angle of the body and the acceleration sensor measures the rotational speed of the golfer's body, and the drift of the gyro sensor accumulated due to the difference in body rotation acceleration of the golfer By correcting the error value with the acceleration measurement value measured by the acceleration sensor, the user's current azimuth value in front of the user can be calculated in conjunction with GPS.

As described above, a technique for calculating a bearing by linking a gyro sensor and an acceleration sensor with GPS is a known technique, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The alarm unit 400 informs the user that the aiming is performed in accordance with the reference angle or the range of the reference angle when the user accurately aims at the reference angle or aims within a predetermined range for the reference angle. This is a known configuration. The alarm unit 400 may include a sound output unit 410 and a vibration generating unit 420.

In addition to the example of the sound source information not described, the aiming device 1 may download a plurality of sound source information from the server 2 and configure various sound patterns.

In addition, the sound output unit 410 may output information on a sound pattern to notify the user when aiming is normally performed at a reference angle. In a state in which aiming is performed at the reference angle, aiming is performed within a predetermined range for the reference angle or the reference angle, and when the golf ball is hit, it may be output as a set sound pattern indicating that the golf ball is hit correctly at the reference angle.

The vibration generating unit 420 is a component that outputs information on a vibration pattern for a corresponding alarm when the alarm unit 400 performs an alarm. The information on the vibration pattern may be composed of information on the vibration pattern set by the user, and the information on the vibration pattern may be composed of a combination of a plurality of vibration information. Here, the vibration information is information including a pattern of vibration and intensity of vibration. Such vibration information, for example, is composed of information for controlling a pulse applied to the vibration generating unit 420 by the controller 800, and as time passes, the vibration pattern becomes faster and the vibration increases repeatedly, or the time passes. The more the vibration pattern becomes slower and the vibration becomes weaker, it can be repeated. According to this vibration information, the controller 800 can adjust the pulse applied to the vibration generating unit 420, and the vibration information is obtained by downloading a plurality of sound patterns from the server 2 by the aiming device 1 By downloading the vibration information, it can be composed of various vibration patterns.

The vibration generating unit 420 may generate vibration to the outside of the main body 100 by providing an eccentric weight motor on one side of the main body 100 and causing the motor to vibrate by additional eccentric movement when a pulse is applied. Therefore, based on the pulse applied to the vibration generating unit 420, an eccentric additional fast movement may be generated to increase the intensity of the vibration, and conversely, the eccentric additional movement may increase the intensity of the vibration.

In addition, the vibration generating unit 420 may output information on the vibration pattern to notify the user when aiming is normally performed at the reference angle. In a state in which aiming is performed at the reference angle, when aiming is performed within a predetermined range for the reference angle or the reference angle, when hitting the golf ball, a set vibration pattern may be generated.

Like the first key input unit 200, the second key input unit 500 transmits a signal based on a user's command to the control unit 800. That is, the user may press the second key input unit 500 to transmit a user command, and the second key input unit 500 may transmit a signal for the user command to the control unit 800. When the user presses the second key input unit 500, the second key input unit 500 can transmit a signal for the user to finally select the menu currently indicated by using the first key input unit 200 to the control unit 800. have. In addition, when a user performs aiming, a reference direction setting signal for setting a reference direction and a reference angle setting signal for setting a reference angle may be transmitted to the controller 800 based on a user command. The second key input unit 500 is provided on the front surface of the main body 100 in the form of a button and can be operated by a user. In addition, although it has been described that the second key input unit 500 is provided on the front surface of the main body 100, the present invention is not limited thereto and may be provided on the side, rear, upper and lower surfaces of the main body 100.

The light output unit 550 is configured to emit light from the main body 100. When the golf ball is hit within the reference angle or the range of the reference angle, the light output unit 550 may display that aiming has been performed in accordance with the reference angle or the range of the reference angle as a light source. The light output unit 550 is provided on the outer surface of the first casing 110 that is the front surface of the main body 100. The light source displayed by the light output unit 550 may emit light in a plurality of patterns set by the user.

In addition, the light output unit 550 can notify the user of information on the amount of battery by emitting light source patterns or colors differently according to the level of the battery remaining due to the exhaustion of the battery of the aiming device 1. have.

The display unit 600 is a component for visually providing information calculated by the control unit 800 to a user. The display unit 600 is provided on the upper portion of the main body 100 so that when the user attaches or couples the main body 100 to the body, it can be visually checked. The display unit 600 includes information on aiming currently performed by the user, a visual display of the amount of battery, a visual display of the volume, and information on a direction in which aiming should be corrected for the currently performed aiming by the user. Etc. are displayed so the user can check. For example, the information on aiming may display a difference value between a reference angle and a current angle, or an angle of currently performed aiming based on the set reference direction and orientation information. In addition, information on the direction in which the aiming should be corrected is guided to rotate the user's body to the right or to the left in order to meet the reference angle based on the current angle or to match the current angle within the range of the reference angle. I can.

The communication unit 700 is a component that enables the aiming device 1 to communicate with the server 2 and the mobile device 3 in order to interlock with each other. The aiming device 1 according to the present invention may communicate with the server 2 and the mobile device 3 through various communication methods including Bluetooth and WI-FI to perform communication.

The controller 800 is provided inside the main body 100 and provided in the form of a printed circuit board (PCB) to control the operation of each component included in the aiming device 1. The controller 800 may set the first direction as a reference direction based on the orientation information of the main body 100 in the user's first posture. Here, the reference direction may mean a direction based on orientation information detected by the sensing unit 300 of the main body 100 when the user is in the first posture (eg, when facing a specific point). For example, when the user's body faces the hole cup in front, it may mean orientation information of the body 100, which becomes a reference direction for measuring an angle. Here, the first posture may mean a posture in which the user is facing a target point for moving the ball.

In addition, the controller 800 may set a reference direction in response to a reference direction setting signal generated based on a user's request. Here, the request may include, for example, a key input or a user's voice. For example, when the user faces the hole cup and presses the second key input unit 500, the control unit 800 refers to the first direction based on the orientation information of the main body 100 detected by the sensing unit at the time of pressing. Can be set in the direction. In addition, the reference direction setting signal refers to a signal generated by pressing the second key input unit 500 to set the reference direction by the user.

In addition, the controller 800 may set a reference angle to be formed between the first direction and the second direction by using the orientation information of the body 100 as the second direction in the user's second posture. Here, the second posture may include, for example, an address posture for the user to hit the ball to the target point. For example, based on the right-handed user, the user may take a second posture in a direction approximately 90 degrees from the reference direction, and when the user presses the second key input unit 500, the controller 800 is based on the user's request. In response to the generated reference angle setting signal, a second direction based on orientation information sensed by the sensing unit 300 when the user presses the second key input unit 500 may be set as the reference angle.

Here, the angle formed by the second direction from the first direction calculated by the control unit 800 may be displayed by the display unit 600 in real time. In addition, the reference angle signal setting signal refers to a signal generated by pressing the second key input unit 500 to set the reference angle from the user. The reference angle may be set in a range of 90 degrees or approximately 90 degrees to +3 degrees, -3 degrees, that is, 87 degrees to 93 degrees with respect to the reference direction.

Meanwhile, the control unit 800 may display a specific user interface for setting a reference angle on the display unit 600. The time point for setting the reference angle may be any time before the golf round, at the time of the first posture, and at the time of the second posture. Alternatively, according to another embodiment, the reference angle may be set in advance when the aiming device 1 is manufactured.

After setting the reference angle, the controller 800 may calculate the current angle formed by the first direction and the third direction by using the orientation information of the main body 100 as the third direction in the third position taken by the user. Here, the third direction refers to the aiming direction taken by the current user from the reference direction. The third posture may include, for example, a current address posture that the user takes toward the third direction before hitting the ball. Therefore, the controller 800 calculates a difference value between the set reference angle and the current angle formed by the user's third posture, and determines whether the user's third posture based on the current angle matches the reference direction or the range of the reference direction. can do. In addition, the controller 800 calculates the difference between the reference angle and the current angle and calculates the angle value and the rotation direction at which the user's body should be rotated in order to correct the aiming from the current angle to the reference direction. You can guide by

For example, when the user takes the address posture from the first direction to the third direction, the current angle may be smaller or larger than the reference angle. Accordingly, the controller 800 may calculate a difference value between the reference angle and the current angle, and display the angle value and the rotation direction to be rotated by the difference value from the reference angle on the display unit 600. If the current angle is smaller than the reference angle based on the right-handed person, the controller to display on the display 600 the angle value to be rotated and the user's body to the right based on the difference value between the reference angle and the current angle ( 800) can be controlled, and if the current angle is greater than the reference angle, the display unit 600 displays the angle value to be rotated and the user's body to the left based on the difference value between the reference angle and the current angle. The control unit 800 can control it.

In addition, the control unit 800 controls the alarm unit 400 when the current angle meets the reference angle or the range of the reference angle according to the determination based on the reference angle and the current angle, so that the sound output unit 410 determines the reference angle. The sound pattern may be controlled to be output according to the user's aiming, and the vibration generator 420 may control the vibration pattern to be generated.

The charging unit 900 is a component capable of charging the battery of the aiming device 1. The charging unit 900 may be variously provided, such as a lower surface, a side surface, or a front surface of the main body 100.

The memory 1000 is a component in which information of the aiming device 1 is stored. For example, the memory 1000 may store the history of the controller 800 determining the current angle with respect to the reference angle, or interlock with the server 2 to download the sound source information and vibration information stored in the server 2 Can also be saved.

Hereinafter, the operation of the aiming device 1 according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

4 is a diagram schematically illustrating setting a reference angle in the aiming apparatus 1 for addressing a golf club according to an embodiment of the present invention and aiming a golf club based on the reference angle.

As shown in Fig. 4, the aiming device 1 according to the present invention initially sets a reference direction toward a target point for the direction in which the golf ball is hit. For example, in a state in which the body 100 is coupled to the front and stomach portions of the user's waist circumference, the first posture may be taken so that the front of the user's body faces the hole cup. In addition, the sensing unit 300 detects the orientation information in the first posture and transmits it to the control unit 800, so that the control unit 800 may set the orientation information of the first posture as a reference direction.

Specifically, if the user wants to set the reference direction for aiming, the user presses the second key input unit 500 provided in the main body 100 to send a signal to set the reference direction to wait for the control unit 800. You can enter the mode. Accordingly, the control unit 800 may enter the standby mode and complete preparation for setting the reference direction. Here, the control unit 800 may notify the user that preparation for setting the reference direction is complete.

For example, the control unit 800 may control the sound output unit 410 to output a sound “Ready” to notify the user that preparation for setting the reference direction is completed. In addition, the controller 800 may control the vibration generating unit 420 to generate vibration to notify the user that preparations for setting the reference direction are completed. As a method of notifying the user that preparations have been completed to set the reference direction in this way, only sound or vibration may be applied, or sound and vibration may be mixed and applied.

Thereafter, in order to set the reference direction, the user may take the first posture so that the front of the body faces the hole cup while the body 100 is coupled. In this way, when the user assumes the first posture, the sensing unit 300 senses the orientation information of the main body 100 coupled or attached to the user's body. Therefore, when the user presses the second key input unit 500 in the first posture to transmit the reference direction setting signal to the control unit 800, the control unit 800 transmits the reference direction setting signal to the sensing unit 300 at the time the user takes the first posture. By recognizing that the orientation information of the main body 100 sensed by this is the reference direction, the orientation information of the main body 100 may be set as the reference direction at the time when the user takes the first posture.

On the other hand, in the process of setting the reference direction, after the user presses the second key input unit 500 and enters the standby mode, the reference direction is detected by detecting the direction information of the main body 100 while in the first position. It has been described as setting, but according to implementation, the user first takes a first posture toward the hole cup and then presses the second key input unit 500 to transmit a reference direction setting signal to the control unit 800. It may be transmitted, and the controller 800 may receive the orientation information of the main body 100 detected by the sensing unit 300 in the first posture and set it as a reference direction.

Next, the controller 800 may set a reference angle based on the orientation information of the main body 100 sensed by the sensing unit 300 at a time when the user takes a second posture toward the second direction and takes the second posture. have.

Specifically, the user can transmit a signal for setting the reference angle to the controller 800 by pressing the second key input unit 500 again after setting the reference direction by taking the first posture. Accordingly, the controller 800 receiving the signal may enter the standby mode for setting the reference angle. When the preparation of the control unit 800 is completed, the control unit 800 controls the sound output unit 410 to output the sound “Ready”, as in the case of setting the reference direction, and indicates that the preparation for setting the reference angle is completed. Can be notified to. In addition, the controller 800 may control the vibration generating unit 420 to generate vibration to notify the user that preparations for setting the reference angle are completed. In addition, as a method of notifying the user that preparations have been completed to set the reference angle, only sound or vibration may be applied, or sound and vibration may be mixed and applied.

In addition, in order to distinguish between "Ready", the sound output when setting the reference direction, and "Ready," the sound output when setting the reference angle, when setting the reference direction, a sound "First Ready" may be output. When setting the angle, a sound "Second Ready" may be output.

Thereafter, when the user rotates the user's body in the first posture and takes a second posture toward the second direction, the orientation information of the main body 100 coupled or attached to the user's body is changed, and the sensing unit 300 ) Can detect the orientation information of the main body 100. Accordingly, the controller 800 can control the display unit 600 to display the orientation information of the body 100 in real time by receiving the orientation information of the body 100 that changes while the user takes the second posture. . Accordingly, the user may take the second posture to set the reference angle while checking the current orientation information of the main body 100 with the naked eye through the display unit 600.

For example, in golf theory, the address posture guides the user's body to make approximately 90 degrees to the target point. Therefore, when the user takes the second posture toward the second direction, the user checks the current orientation information of the main body 100 and completes the second posture so that it corresponds to approximately 90 degrees, and presses the second key input unit 500. The reference angle setting signal may be transmitted to the controller 800. Accordingly, the control unit 800 may set the reference angle based on the orientation information of the body 100 sensed by the sensing unit 300 at the time when the user takes the second posture.

More specifically, when the user takes a second posture toward the second direction, the sensor 300 continues to detect the direction information of the main body 100, and the direction information of the main body 100 is approximately 90 degrees. Upon reaching, when the orientation information of the body 100 becomes 90 degrees, the user presses the second key input unit 500 to transmit a reference angle setting signal to the control unit 800. Accordingly, the controller 800 may set the reference angle based on the current orientation information of the main body 100 detected by the sensing unit 300 by the user. Although it has been described that the reference angle is set to approximately 90 degrees, it may be set in a range of approximately 90 degrees to +3 degrees, -3 degrees, that is, 87 degrees to 93 degrees according to implementation.

As a result, the user takes the second posture toward the second direction in the state of the first posture toward the first direction, thereby forming a second direction from the reference direction, and an angle formed between the reference direction and the second direction. It is to form a reference angle based on it.

Here, if the reference angle is in a predetermined state, the process of setting the reference angle may be omitted. Therefore, after the user sets the reference direction, aiming is performed by taking a second posture toward the second direction, and in the process of taking the second posture, the controller 800 is the main body 100 detected by the sensing unit 300. By allowing the display unit 600 to display the orientation information of, in real time, the user can check the current angle.

In addition, the light output unit 550 may notify the user that the setting of the reference angle is completed by continuously emitting the light source while blinking the light source or changing the color alternately.

In addition, when the user maintains the first or second posture toward the first or second direction for a certain period of time, the control unit 800 determines the reference direction or the second position based on the direction information currently detected by the user. It is determined that it is desired to set the reference angle, and the reference direction or the reference angle may be set based on the orientation information detected by the current sensing unit 300.

For example, when the user sets the reference direction by taking a first posture toward the first direction, while the control unit 800 enters the standby mode, the user presses the second key input unit 500 If the orientation information of the main body 100 is maintained for a predetermined time by maintaining the posture, the control unit 800 sets the reference direction based on the current orientation information of the main body 100 detected by the sensing unit 300 by the user. The reference direction may be set based on the current orientation information of the main body 100 detected by the sensing unit 300 as deemed desired.

In addition, as the user takes a second posture toward the second direction, when the control unit 800 enters the standby mode when setting the reference angle, the user has a second posture instead of pressing the second key input unit 500. To maintain the orientation information of the main body 100 for a predetermined period of time by maintaining the control unit 800, the controller 800 asks the user to set a reference angle based on the current orientation information of the main body 100 detected by the sensing unit 300. The reference angle may be set based on the current orientation information of the main body 100 detected by the sensing unit 300 as deemed desired.

Here, the time for maintaining the first posture or the second posture toward the first direction or the second direction for a predetermined time may take about 2 seconds to 3 seconds.

On the other hand, the reference angle may be set to be approximately 90 degrees in size even though the position at which the body 100 is coupled to the user's body is different. That is, in the present invention, as an embodiment, the body 100 is coupled to the user's abdomen, but the body 100 is coupled to the user's waist, chest or other body position according to implementation. Can be.

For example, if the user couples the body 100 to the right waist, if the orientation information of the body 100 is 90 degrees when the user sets the reference direction while looking at the hole cup When taking the second posture toward the two directions, the orientation information of the body 100 sensed by the sensing unit 300 is 180 degrees. Accordingly, the reference direction is 90 degrees and the second direction is 180 degrees, but the size of the reference angle is not changed by 90 degrees. As a result, the control unit 800 may equally determine whether aiming is normally performed no matter where the main body 100 is coupled or attached to the user's body.

Such aiming can be applied to all fields in which a user can take a golf shot. In other words, it turns out that it can be applied to various hitting situations such as putting, iron shot, and driver.

FIG. 5 is an exemplary diagram showing that the angle of aiming currently performed by the user is 25 degrees and should be corrected to the right based on the information on which the reference angle shown in FIG. 4 is set, and FIG. 6 is It is a diagram exemplarily showing that the angle of aiming currently performed by the user is 104 degrees based on the information for which the reference angle is set, and that it should be corrected to the left.

5 and 6, the aiming device 1 according to the present invention notifies whether the aiming currently performed by the user matches the reference angle based on a reference angle set by the user or a predetermined reference angle. can do.

Specifically, after the user sets the reference angle, aiming is performed by taking an addressing posture to substantially hit the golf ball toward the hole cup. Therefore, when the user takes a third posture toward the third direction, the controller 800 can set the current direction information of the main body 100 based on the third direction detected by the detection unit 300 as the current angle. have. The controller 800 may determine whether the current angle corresponds to a reference angle or within a range of a reference angle, and calculate a difference value between the reference angle and the current angle.

If the current angle by the user's third posture does not match the reference angle, the controller 800 may notify or guide the angle to be adjusted by the user through the display unit 600.

In FIG. 5, it can be seen that the angle to be adjusted by the user is notifying the user of a right direction and a value of 25 by an arrow through the display unit 600. In this way, when the control unit 800 determines the user's current angle by comparing it with the reference angle, it is rotated to the left of the reference angle, so that the user's aiming is performed so that the user matches the reference angle. It announces that aiming must be performed by rotating the body to the right.

In addition, the angle to be aimed to the right is 25 degrees, and the user must be notified that the aiming is performed by rotating to the right by 25 degrees from the current angle to conform to the reference angle or the range of the reference angle.

Accordingly, the user may rotate his/her body by 25 degrees to the right based on the notice displayed by the display unit 600 to correct the third posture at approximately 90 degrees, which is a reference angle.

As another example, referring to FIG. 6, in FIG. 6, a left direction and a value of 104 are shown to the user as arrows through the display unit 600 to the user. In this way, indicating the left direction with an arrow is rotated to the right of the reference angle when the user's current angle is compared with the reference angle, so the user's body is rotated to the left in order for the user to aim at the reference angle. It is announcing the need to rotate to perform aiming.

In addition, the angle to be aimed to the left is 104 degrees, and the user can be notified that the reference angle or the reference angle is within the range of the reference angle only when aiming is performed by rotating to the left by 104 degrees from the current angle.

Accordingly, the user may rotate his or her body by 104 degrees to the left based on the notice displayed by the display unit 600 to correct the third posture by approximately 90 degrees, which is a reference angle.

In addition, the angle displayed by the display unit 600 may be an angle with respect to aiming performed by the user by taking the third posture. Accordingly, in FIG. 5, the controller 800 can guide the user to meet the reference angle by rotating to the right and performing aiming because the current aiming angle is 25 degrees. In FIG. 6, the current aiming angle is 104 Since it is a degree, it is possible to guide it to meet the reference angle by rotating it to the left and performing aiming.

In addition, after the current angle of the third posture taken by the user toward the third direction matches the reference angle or the range of the reference angle and aiming is completed, the control unit 800 controls the alarm unit 400 to It can be noted that the current angle of the three-position has been matched to the reference angle or within the range of the reference angle. That is, the sound output unit 410 and the vibration generator 420 provided in the alarm unit 400 may output a sound pattern or generate a vibration pattern according to an alarm function set by a user.

Specifically, in the present invention, the sound source information or vibration information stored in the server 2 may be downloaded and output or generated by the aiming device 1. Such sound source information may be output from the sound output unit 410, and vibration information may be generated from the vibration generator 420.

Here, a plurality of sound source information may be downloaded and stored in the memory 1000 of the aiming device 1, and a plurality of vibration information may be downloaded and stored in the memory 1000 of the aiming device 1 in the same manner.

Accordingly, sound source information and vibration information stored in the memory 1000 may be set according to a user's preference, and thus may be used for an alarm. That is, when the user receives an alarm, the user may set and receive the alarm as a sound pattern or a vibration pattern.

Such sound patterns may be outputted with only single sound source information, or a plurality of sound sources may be edited for each section and combined with each other to create and use a new sound pattern desired by the user.

For example, a plurality of sound source information may be provided that a sound pattern in a high sound range lasts for a short time and a sound pattern in a low sound range with a low sound lasts for a short time, and the user can provide these two sound source information. It is possible to create and use a new sound pattern by applying a part of each time-series section. This is only an example, and a sound pattern may be generated using at least one sound source information.

In addition, vibration information may be generated based on one vibration information, or a plurality of vibration information may be applied and combined differently for each section, thereby using the new vibration information desired by the user.

For example, a plurality of vibration information may be provided with vibration information of a vibration pattern having a weak vibration intensity and a constant vibration pattern, and vibration information of a vibration pattern having a strong and rapidly changing vibration intensity, and a user may use these two types of vibration information in time series. Vibration can be generated by applying a part for each section. This is only an example, and a vibration pattern may be applied using at least one vibration information.

In addition, it is possible to set an alarm by applying both sound source information and vibration information. The output of the sound source information and the output of the vibration information described above were to apply only one of the two separately, but depending on the implementation, both the sound source information and the vibration information may be applied.

Specifically, the user may edit and combine the sound source information for each section according to the sound source information by using a plurality of sound sources and a plurality of vibration information stored in the memory 1000 of the aiming device 1, and the vibration information is the vibration information. Each section is applied and combined differently for each section so that sound source information and vibration information are output and generated for each time zone.

In addition, the sound source information and the vibration information may be applied so that the intensity of the vibration is determined according to the sound source in correspondence with each other.

For example, if one sound source information is matched with the vibration information and then a sound in the high sound range is output, in the vibration information, the vibration information can be strongly generated according to the sound in the high sound range, and the corresponding sound source information is low. If the sound in the pitch range is output, vibration is generated weakly according to the sound in the low range. This may be generated by using at least one or more sound source information and vibration information as described above.

In addition, the sound source information and the vibration information may correspond to each other in the opposite case.

For example, if one sound source information is matched with the vibration information and then a sound in the high sound range is output, in the vibration information, the vibration information can be made to generate weakly according to the sound in the high sound range, and the corresponding sound source information is low. If the sound in the pitch range is output, it vibrates strongly according to the sound in the low range. This may be generated by using at least one or more sound source information and vibration information as described above.

Such an embodiment is only an example, and various sound source information and vibration information are combined with each other to notify a user of an alarm that the reference angle is aligned.

In addition, in the present invention, when the user hits the golf ball at the reference angle after aligning aiming at the reference angle, an alarm notifying the user that the golf ball hit at the reference angle may be performed.

For example, in the present invention, a shock sensor (not shown) may be provided on one side of the head of the user's golf club to detect the angle of the head of the golf club and the impact of the head of the golf club and the golf ball. Such an impact detection sensor may interwork with the controller 800 of the aiming device 1. Accordingly, in order to set the reference direction and the reference angle, when the user takes the first posture and the second posture, the controller 800 senses the head angle of the golf club and stores it as the head angle of the reference golf club. Based on the head angle, when an impact is detected from the head of the golf club, it is determined whether the head of the golf club matches the head angle of the reference golf club.

As a result, when the user hits the golf ball to match the reference angle or within the range of the reference angle, the controller 800 notifies that the user hits the golf ball to match the reference angle or within the range of the reference angle, and the sound output unit ( The 410 may output sound source information, the vibration generator 420 may generate vibration based on the vibration information, or the light output unit 550 may blink the light source or output it for a predetermined time. In addition, it is possible to control to output by combining at least one or more sound source information, vibration information, and light source.

7 is a diagram schematically showing that an aiming device 1 for an address of a golf club according to an embodiment of the present invention is interlocked by communicating with the server 2 and the mobile device 3.

As shown in FIG. 7, the aiming device 1 according to the present invention can be interlocked with the server 2 and the mobile device 3. Such interworking may be achieved by performing communication based on various communication methods such as Bluetooth and WI-FI. As such communication is possible, the aiming device 1 can be used by downloading and storing sound source information and vibration information stored in the server 2.

In addition, the information on which the user sets the reference direction and the reference angle and aiming based on the current angle so as to match the reference angle or the range of the reference angle is stored in the memory 1000 of the aiming device 1. All can be transmitted to the server 2 through synchronization. Accordingly, the user's mobile device 3 may provide a history of an address provided by the server 2 through an application and an address when the server 2 is performing the aiming. This will be described with reference to FIGS. 8 and 9.

FIG. 8 is a screen provided by downloading the history of the aiming device 1 stored in the server 2 from the mobile, and showing the history of the aiming and addressing at the time of the aiming by date. It is a figure shown.

As shown in Fig. 8, the mobile device 3 can show my address history. The aiming apparatus 1 according to the present invention may measure the angle of the address after performing aiming and taking the address posture so that the user matches the reference angle or the range of the reference angle.

Specifically, the angle of the address may include an angle of a waist or an angle of a leg. Here, the angle of the waist or legs is the most important factor in determining whether the address posture is properly performed. Accordingly, in the present invention, when the user takes the address posture, the aiming device 1 coupled to the body may measure the angle at which the waist is bent through the gyro sensor provided in the sensing unit 300.

For example, if the aiming device 1 is located on the stomach, the detection unit 300 may bend at the address when the user takes an address while the angle of the waist or leg is set for the state in which the user is standing straight. The angle of the waist or leg can be detected, and accordingly, the angle of the user's bent waist or leg can be calculated at the address. In this way, the angle information may be stored in the memory 1000 of the aiming device 1 and transmitted to the server 2 through communication with the server 2. Accordingly, the server 2 may provide the user's mobile device 3 to identify the address history by year as shown in FIG. 8.

For example, the user may store address histories for 2016, 2017, and 2018 in the server 2 and provide it to the mobile device 3. In the mobile device (3), the address history for 2016, 2017, and 2018 provided by the server (2) is interlocked with the server (2) through an application, and the address history for 2016, 2017, and 2018 is expanded by year to perform "See more" on a specific date. I can.

In "Show more", the user's address is schematically displayed to show the angle of the waist or leg relative to the address of the user at the time, and the flight result of the golf ball may be displayed when the golf ball is hit by the address.

In addition, the server 2 may be interlocked with an expert group server (not shown) so that a golf advisor registered in the expert group server may present improvement points for the corresponding address. The golf advisor can determine the improvement points for the address based on the information in which the user's address is diagrammed and register it on the server 2 for each user, and the user can receive and understand such improvements.

In addition, the server 2 may register its usual correct address in the server 2, and the server 2 may provide differences and improvements in the current address based on the previously registered address.

FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating a graph showing yearly aiming accuracy on the screen of the mobile device 3 shown in FIG. 8.

As shown in FIG. 9, in the mobile device 3, the trend of the accuracy of the address for each year may be expressed as a graph. This accuracy can be measured by comparing the angle of the waist or leg in the user's address posture with the correct posture previously registered by the user.

Since it is very difficult to accurately take the address posture every time, the server determines how accurate the angle of the waist or leg is by comparing the address posture for each swing with the address posture previously registered by the user after registering the address posture of the user correctly. In (2), the trend of accuracy can be expressed as a graph.

As such, the aiming device 1 according to the present invention helps the user to perform aiming for a preset hitting direction when hitting a golf ball, and interlocks with the server 2 and the mobile device 3. Through this, it is possible to provide the user with a history and improvement points on the user's address posture.

Preferred embodiments of the present invention described above are disclosed for the purpose of illustration, and those skilled in the art with ordinary knowledge of the present invention will be able to make various modifications, changes and additions within the spirit and scope of the present invention. And additions will be seen as falling within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
