The screen 200 is disposed in front of the player and visually displays a game image by a beam output from the projector 300.

Here, the projector 300 and the screen 200 may be game image display means. In the embodiment of the present invention, although the projector 300 and the screen 200 are applied as the game image display means, any display means capable of visual display may be used. That is, a PDP / LCD displayer, a large CRT using a reflector, and the like may be used, but are not limited to specific display means. However, it would be desirable to use a display of a type that can generate spot light by forming an image of a pointing laser to be described later.

The coordinate recognition unit 100 may generate a coordinate recognition image by photographing spot light by a laser having a specific frequency on the screen 200 on which the game image is displayed. In this case, the laser of the visible frequency that the spot light generated by the progress of light is blocked by the screen 200 is visible to the naked eye of the game player may be applied to the laser, and the wavelength that is not visible to the naked eye is in the range of 600 to 1100 nm. City lasers may be applied. In the embodiment of the present invention, it is preferable to use an invisible laser as a pointing laser in order to impart the same sense of presence as in reality.

In addition, the coordinate recognizing unit 100 must match the pointing position between the captured coordinate recognition image and the shooting image of the shooting game using the drones 410 and 420. To this end, the coordinate recognition unit 100 may photograph a specific reference point for setting a predetermined position of the screen 200 as a reference position. To this end, one side of the screen 200 may be further provided with a reference point display means (not shown) for discharging a laser or the like that is a reference point toward the coordinate recognition unit 100. Alternatively, before the shooting game using the drone, the coordinate recognition unit 100 may be adjusted to a reference position with respect to the game image displayed on the screen 200, and then fixed to a reference position. The pointing positions can be matched.

Meanwhile, the coordinate recognition unit 100 may continuously photograph the screen 200 on which the game image is displayed while continuously shooting a game using the drones 410 and 420 to continuously output the coordinate recognition image.

The above-described coordinate recognition unit 100 may include a camera.
