In relation to this, a user may create a room for a golf match, or participate in a golf match by participating in an already created room. Users participating in the room can decide victory or defeat or ranking while playing a golf game on the same virtual golf course.

Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, a user who wants to create a room is called a 'host user', and a user who wants to participate in the room is called a 'guest user'.

According to an embodiment, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide an interface for creating a room.

In this case, the shot image processing unit 352 may receive information for defining the characteristics of the room from the host user.

For example, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide an interface for selecting a match type, and may select an individual match or a team match through the interface. Accordingly, the host user who selects the individual match may create a room in which the game will be played as a match between individuals, or the host user who selects the team match may create a room in which the golf game will be played as a match between the teams.

Also, for example, the shot image processing unit 352 may receive a selection of a golf course through an interface, and may also receive an input of environmental settings such as green speed, wind strength, and conceed distance.

Also, for example, the shot image processing unit 352 may receive a participation condition for a room to be created through the interface, and may receive a condition regarding a guest user or a room opening/closing condition as the participation condition.

That is, the host user may set the maximum number of guest users (or the maximum number of teams) or the level of guest users who can participate as a condition for the participation of the guest users. Accordingly, it may be difficult for a guest user to join a room that has reached the maximum number of people, or a guest user whose predetermined handyman or golfing average record does not reach a predetermined value may have difficulty joining the room.

In addition, the host user can set conditions such as whether to input predetermined information when entering the room, when to enter the room, and the like as room opening/closing conditions. Accordingly, if the guest user does not know the password when entering the room that requires input of the password, it may be difficult to enter the room, or if the host user wants to participate after a predetermined time has elapsed since the room was created, or if the host user enters the predetermined hall Access to the room can be difficult.

As described above, when a room for a golf game is created, the host user can start a round, and as the guest user participates in the room, the guest user can start rounding from the first hole regardless of the hole the host user plays.

That is, in a state in which the user creates a room for a golf game as a host user, the shot image processing unit 352 may obtain a request to participate in the other competition device 300 ′, and by accepting the participation request, the other competition device ( 300') can be detected.

Alternatively, in a state in which the user participates in a room for a golf game as a guest user, the shot image processing unit 352 may obtain a request to participate in the other competition apparatus 300', and as the participation request is accepted, the other competition apparatus 300' ) can be detected.

Meanwhile, according to another embodiment, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide an interface for participation in the created room.

In this case, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide a list of created rooms to the guest user, and may also provide conditions set by the host user for each room, for example, a match type, a golf course type, and an environment setting. At least one of content and participation conditions may be displayed.

Also, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide the guest user with a list of rooms having a condition that satisfies the filter value input by the guest user.

In addition, when the shot image processing unit 352 receives a request for room participation from a guest user through the interface, it is determined whether the guest user satisfies the room condition, and only when the room condition is satisfied, the shot image processing unit 352 can process the guest user's room entry, and the room condition If you do not satisfy the requirements, you can refuse to enter the room of the guest user.

For example, if the number of play-ins allocated to the room is exceeded, it may be rejected, or, for example, when a request to join a room with a password is set with an incorrect password, it may be rejected, or the user who created the room If you are playing the next hole after passing through the hole, your request may be denied.

Therefore, when a user requests to participate as a guest user in a room created by another user through the other game device 300 ′ and the request for participation is accepted by satisfying the room conditions, the shot image processing unit 352 performs the other battle device 300 ′. ) can be detected.

Accordingly, the shot image processing unit 352 may detect the connection of the other game device 300 ′ in which the golf game is played in a hole different from the hole being played in the match device 300 . For example, when the host user is playing the 3rd hole, it is possible to detect the connection of the guest user's other game device 300', which starts playing at the 1st hole, or, for example, the guest user joins the room. By doing this, when the first hole is started, the connection of the host user playing in the second hole can be detected by the other game device 300 ′.

When the connection with the other charging device 300 ′ is detected in this way, the shot image processing unit 352 may obtain and provide a shot image from the connected other charging device 300 ′.

Hereinafter, a shot image of another user provided to a user means a shot image of another user in the other game device 300 ′.

Meanwhile, according to another embodiment, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide a shot image of another user in real time.

For example, whenever a shot image is acquired from the other game device 300 ′ by a shot by another user, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide the acquired shot image of the other user.

Also, for example, the shot image processing unit 352 may display a shot image of another user selected by the user from among other users conducting a golf game together with the user, or of another user playing in the other game device 300 ′ selected by the user. may be provided, and whenever a corresponding shot image is acquired, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide an acquired shot image of another user.

On the other hand, according to another embodiment, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide a shot image of another user when the ball according to the user's golf shot moves on the virtual golf course.

For example, when providing a simulation image in which a ball flies on a virtual golf course as a user plays a golf shot, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide a shot image of another user together with the simulation image, It can be provided by overlapping the shot image.

According to another embodiment, the shot image processing unit 352 may calculate a user's ranking when entering a hole in a virtual golf course, and provide a shot image of another user based on the user's ranking.

For example, the shot image processing unit 352 may calculate the ranking of the user according to the golf score. Therefore, for example, when calculating a user's ranking, if the golf score of the user is +1 and the golf score of the other user is 0, it may be determined that the other user has a higher ranking than the user.

Therefore, for example, the shot image processing unit 352 may calculate a ranking based on the user's score, and select other users having a score within a predetermined range based on the user's score, but select the score closest to the user's score. It is possible to select the users who have it, and accordingly, the top 2 other users and the bottom 2 other users can be selected.

The method of calculating the user's ranking is not limited according to the above-described example, and any method of presenting a criterion for determining victory or defeat in a golf game between users is possible.

When the user's ranking is calculated in this way, the shot image processing unit 352 may select other users within a predetermined range based on the user's ranking and may provide shot images of the selected other users.

In addition, the shot image processing unit 352 may select other users within a predetermined range based on the user's ranking, but if there is a user of the same ranking, at least one of the other users of the same ranking may be selected.

For example, the shot image processing unit 352 selects a user having a score within a predetermined range based on the user's score, but if the score is the same and is in the same rank, all other users having the same score may be selected. .

Accordingly, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide each shot image in the order in which they are stored as there are a plurality of shot images corresponding to other users of the same ranking.

In addition, the shot image processing unit 352 selects other users within a predetermined range based on the user's ranking, but when there is a user of the same ranking, the user with the most current holes may be selected.

For example, the shot image processing unit 352 may calculate a ranking based on the user's score, and thus selects a user having a score within a predetermined range based on the user's score, but has a score closest to the user's score. Users can be selected, and accordingly, the top two other users and the bottom two other users can be selected.

Also, for example, the shot image processing unit 352 selects users having a score within a predetermined range based on the user's score, but when the scores are the same and the same rank, the user with the most currently progressed holes may be selected. Accordingly, if there are three other users who have a lower ranking than the user within a predetermined range but have the same ranking, two other users may be selected in the order of the number of current holes from among the three other users.

In relation to this, FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining a process in which the shot image processing unit 352 selects other users according to the user ranking.

In FIG. 4, the hole number entered by 'User A', the score of 'User A' when entering the hole, and other users ('User B', 'User C', 'User D', 'User E' and ' User F') It indicates the hole that other users are progressing along with each score. At this time, other users can play while being located in a different hole from ‘User A’.

Referring to the table at the top of FIG. 4 , when 'User A' enters the 6th hole, the score of 'User A' is '+4', so the shot image processing unit 352 is based on the score of 'User A'. Two 'User B' and 'User C' having a higher score than 'User A' are selected, and based on the score of 'User A', 'User D' and 'User A' having a lower score than 'User A' are selected. User F' can be selected. At this time, 'User E' is not selected because the score is lower than that of 'User A', but does not fall within a predetermined range (eg, the bottom two) based on the score of 'User A'.

On the other hand, referring to the table at the bottom of FIG. 4 , when 'User A' enters the 7th hole from the 6th hole, the shot image processing unit 352 indicates that the score of 'User A' is '+6', and thus the shot image processing unit 352 can recalculate the ranking based on the score of 'User A'. Accordingly, the shot image processing unit 352 may select two 'User E' and 'User F' having a lower score than 'User A', and also 'User A' based on the score of 'User A'. 'User B' with a higher score may be selected, and 'User D' with more holes in progress may be selected from among 'User C' and 'User D' of the same rank. Accordingly, 'User C' cannot be selected, and 'User C' cannot be selected on the 7th hole compared to 'User E' in the 6th hole.

The shot image of the other user selected as described above, the shot image processing unit 352 may be provided to the user.

Therefore, referring to FIG. 4 , when a golf shot is made on the 6th hole, 'User A' may be provided with a shot image of 'User C'. However, as 'User A' enters the 7th hole, the shot image of 'User C' You can't see the 'User E' shot video instead.

According to another embodiment, the shot image processing unit 352 calculates a user's ranking when entering a hole in a virtual golf course, and provides a shot image of another user based on the user's ranking, but the location where the user's shot is made It is possible to provide a shot image of another user who has made a shot within a predetermined range based on .

For example, the shot image processing unit 352 selects other users who have taken a shot within a predetermined radius based on the location where the user shot from among other users having a ranking within a predetermined range based on the user's ranking, and selects other users. You can provide a shot image of

Or, for example, the shot image processing unit 352 selects other users who played in the same hole as the hole at the location where the user shot from among other users having a ranking within a predetermined range based on the user's ranking, and selects the selected other users. You can provide a shot image.

4, for example, to 'User A' who entered the 6th hole and made a golf shot, shot images of 'User B', 'User C', 'User D' and 'User F' will be provided. However, if only 'User F' is playing the game at the 7th hole and other users play the game at the hole with a number less than 6, the shot image processing unit 352 is a shot image of 'User F' from among the shot images. Only shots played on the 6th hole can be provided.

As such, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide shot images of different users by newly calculating the ranking each time the user enters the hall, and accordingly, the user may view various shot images instead of the same shot image.

Meanwhile, according to another embodiment, the shot image processing unit 352 may calculate a ranking of a user team to which a user belongs when entering a hole in a virtual golf course, and provide shot images of other users based on the ranking of the user team. have.

That is, the user can play a golf game as a team match, and accordingly, the user team to which the user belongs and the opposing team competing as the opponent of the user team can play the golf game together.

In this regard, the same team may play a golf game in the same match-up device or may play a golf game through different match-up devices.

At this time, the shot image processing unit 352 may calculate the team ranking based on the score for each team. For example, the sum or average of all scores of users belonging to the team is calculated as the team score, and according to the team score, User team rankings can be calculated. Therefore, for example, when calculating the ranking of the user team, if the golf score of the user team is '+4' and the golf score of the opposing team is '+5', it is determined that the ranking of the opposing team has a lower ranking than the user. can

In addition, the shot image processing unit 352 may select an opposing team within a predetermined range based on the ranking of the user team.

In addition, the shot image processing unit 352 selects the opposing team within a predetermined range based on the ranking of the user team, but when the rankings are the same, the team with the most currently progressed holes may be selected.

In this case, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide a shot image of at least one other user from among other users belonging to the selected opposing team after the opposing team is selected. Accordingly, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide each shot image in the order in which they are stored as there are a plurality of shot images of other users belonging to the opposing team.

For example, the shot image processing unit 352 may provide shot images of other users in which shot images related to Ozal-Gong are stored among other users belonging to the selected opposing team in the order in which they are stored, and all other users have shot images related to Ozal-Gong. If there is, you can provide shot images of all other users in the opposing team according to the saved order. After providing all the shot images about Ojal-gong, the shot image processing unit 352 provides shot images about the tee shots in Par5 and Par3 from among the shot images of each other user belonging to the opposing team in the stored order, or Advertisement images may be provided.

In addition, the shot image processing unit 352 selects any other user from among other users belonging to the opposing team after selecting the opposing team, or selects another user with the highest score among other users belonging to the opposing team, or selects another user ( 300'), it is possible to select other users who log in first, and provide a shot image of the selected other users.

5 is a diagram for explaining that the shot image processing unit 352 selects other users according to the ranking of the user team to which the user belongs.

In FIG. 5, the hole number entered by 'Team H', which is the team 'User A' belongs to, and the ranking of 'Team H' and the opposing team ('Team I', 'Team J', 'Team K' when entering the hole) , 'Team L' and 'Team M') respectively. In this case, the opposing team may play while being located in a different hole from ‘Team H’.

Referring to the upper table of FIG. 5 , the shot image processing unit 352 may select the top two and the bottom two opposing teams based on 'Team H'. ', 'Team I' and 'Team J', which are 1st and 2nd, can be selected, and 'Team K' and 'Team M', which are 4th and 5th places, can be selected. On the other hand, referring to the table at the bottom of FIG. 5 , when 'Team H' enters from the 11th hole to the 12th hole, the shot image processing unit 352 calculates the ranking of 'Team H' again, and 'Team H' ranked 4th in the 12th hole. 'Team J' and 'Team I', which are 2nd and 3rd places, can be selected based on the , and 'Team M' and 'Team L', which are 5th and 6th places, can be selected.

In addition, the shot image processing unit 352 may identify shot types corresponding to the plurality of shot images and sort the shot images according to the priority set in the identified shot types. At this time, the shot type indicates what kind of shot the shot image was taken. For example, 'Ozal ball', 'Tee shot at Par5, Par3', 'Last shot in case of eagle or birdie chance and the remaining distance is within 5m' etc.

Therefore, for example, when the type of shot corresponding to a plurality of shot images is identified, the shot image processing unit 352 is configured to: 'Ozal ball', 'Tee shot in Par5, Par3', 'Eagle or buddy chance, and the remaining distance is within 5m. You can sort the shot images corresponding to each shot type in the order of 'last shot'.

Also, the shot image processing unit 352 may identify other users corresponding to the plurality of shot images and sort the plurality of shot images according to the identified other users.

Accordingly, for example, each of the other users corresponding to the plurality of shot images may be sorted based on the ranking, and the shot images corresponding to each of the other users may be sorted by aligning the other users. Alternatively, for example, when exposing a shot image to a user is selected from among other users corresponding to a plurality of shot images, the shot images corresponding to each of the other users may be sorted by preferentially aligning the selected other users.

In addition, the shot image processing unit 352 identifies other users corresponding to the plurality of shot images and aligns the plurality of shot images according to the identified other users. You can sort the shot images according to the shot.

Therefore, for example, referring to the upper part of FIG. 4 , the shot images of 'User B', 'User C', 'User D' and 'User F' are displayed to 'User A' who entered the 6th hole and made a golf shot. It can be provided, and when it is sorted according to the ranking, it is sorted in the order of 'User C', 'User B', 'User D', and 'User F', so that the shot images corresponding to each other user can be sorted, and the first If there are more than one shot video of 'User C' provided, shots of 'User C' in the following order: 'Ozal ball', 'Tee shot at Par5, Par3,' 'Eagle or birdie chance, and the last shot if the remaining distance is within 5m' Images can be sorted.

When the opposing team is selected, the matchmaking device 300 may select other users belonging to the selected opposing team (S940).

In this case, for example, the matchmaking device 300 may select at least one of the other users belonging to the selected opposing team. Accordingly, the matchmaking device 300 may select all other users belonging to the selected opposing team.

Alternatively, for example, the matchmaking device 300 may select other users having the best score for each opposing team, and when a total of 4 opposing teams are selected, other users are selected from each team and finally 4 other users are selected. can be selected.

When other users are selected as described above, the charging device 300 may acquire a shot image of the selected other users.

For example, the charging device 300 may download and store a shot image of another user to be provided to the user from the other charging device 300 ′ that is different from the charging device.

If there are a plurality of downloaded shot images of other users (S850), the plurality of shot images may be sorted according to exposure priority (S860).

That is, a plurality of other users are selected and there are a plurality of shot images corresponding to each other user, or a plurality of shot images corresponding to one other user are provided. There is a need to determine the order, and the charging device 300 may determine the order in which the plurality of shot images are to be exposed, that is, the priority, and may sort them according to the priority.

In this case, the charging device 300 may sort the shot images based on at least one of a shot type corresponding to the plurality of shot images and other users corresponding to the plurality of shot images.

For example, sort the shot images according to the shot type in the order of 'Ozal ball', 'Tee shot at Par5, Par3', 'Last shot in case of eagle or birdie chance and the remaining distance is within 5m' of multiple shot images. Alternatively, by preferentially sorting other users who have selected to be exposed to the user from among other users corresponding to the plurality of shot images, the shot images corresponding to each of the other users may be sorted.

In addition, the charging device 300 provides shot images corresponding to each of the sorted other users by arranging other users corresponding to the shot images. The shot images can be arranged and provided according to the type.

Meanwhile, the charging device 300 may sort the shot images according to the order in which the shot images are stored.

Therefore, for example, when providing shot images of all other users in the opposing team, the shot images of each of the other users may be provided according to the stored order. And after providing all the shot images about Ojal-gong, the fighting device 300 provides shot images about the tee shots in Par5 and Par3 from among the shot images of each other user belonging to the opposing team according to the stored order, or Advertisement images may be provided.

As described above, if there are a plurality of shot images, the shot images may be provided according to the sorted order, and if there is one shot image, the charging device 300 may provide the shot images (S870).

Therefore, the charging device 300 may provide a shot image of another user when the movement of the ball starts in the simulation image, and end the provision of the shot image when the movement of the corresponding ball ends.

In relation to this, according to an embodiment, the charging device 300 may perform a step S870 when the ball moves according to the shot when the user's shot is sensed after performing the steps S810 to S860, and according to another embodiment After the user makes a shot, steps S810 to S870 may be performed.

These steps S810 to S870 may be repeated until the game is finished.

Therefore, for example, if the charging device 300 determines that the user has entered a new hole (S820), steps S830 to S870 may be repeated. Shot images that were not exposed among the images can be provided sequentially according to priority, and if there is no more shot images to provide because there is one shot image or a plurality of shot images have already been provided, advertisement images, etc. can be provided. .

As described above, as shown in FIG. 10 , the charging device 300 displays a simulation image showing the movement trajectory 1010 of the ball on a virtual golf course according to the user's golf shot through the screen 30 together with other users. A shot image 1000 of may also be provided.
