However, in general sports fields such as badminton and table tennis, it is not easy to have a professional referee or facilitator to conduct the game due to the poor environment or cost problem, so it is common to call and memorize scores between players verbally. However, this often causes problems such as not being able to remember the score between the parties during the game, arguing due to incorrect scoring, or delaying the game.

In particular, in some sports, such as badminton doubles, it is difficult to determine who has the right to serve. In the case of a badminton doubles match, it is decided whether to use the right serving (serve) court or the left service court depending on whether the score of the scoring team is even or odd. If the score is not consecutive, the player who served in the previous scoring situation A player who is not eligible to serve becomes the right player this time, and if the score is consecutive, the person who served before will continue to have the right to serve. Since it is not easy to quickly apply these rules during the game to determine the right person to serve and the court to serve, misunderstandings or disputes between players may occur. There is plenty of room.

In order to solve this problem, a conventional manual or automatic scoreboard is used in the field of physical education, but even when a scoreboard is used, it is inconvenient for a referee or a match assistant to manually turn over the board or input scores one by one.

The menu display area 230 may display various settings or menus, such as termination of an application or device connection.

The player display area 240 displays information such as the player's name and the right to serve. In the illustrated embodiment, the player display area 240 includes player names (241,242, 243,244), position change buttons (245,246,247), and serve right information (248a, 248b, 249). In the case of a doubles game, the player display area 240 arranges and displays the names of the players corresponding to the players' actual positions on the court. For example, in the drawing, the two players of the left team (player 1 and player 2) are located on the left and right sides of their court, respectively.

The first position change button 245 and the second position change button 246 located between the players 241 and 242 and 243 and 244 of the same team among the position change buttons 245, 246 and 247 change the position of the player in the corresponding team, respectively. change and display For example, when the first position change button 245 is pressed, the positions of the player 1 ( 241 ) and the player 2 ( 242 ) are changed and displayed. Therefore, for example, when two players change their positions between the left and right courts depending on whether or not they have the right to serve, the first position change buttons 245 and 246 are used to reflect and display this change on the display screen 210 to change the positions between the two players. It can be displayed on the screen 210 .

The third position change button 257 among the position change buttons 245, 246 and 247 is located between the display areas of the two teams and displays the positions of players between the two teams by changing them. For example, when the third position change button 247 is pressed in the drawing, the positions of player 1 ( 241 ) and player 2 ( 242 ) and the positions of player 3 ( 243 ) and player 4 ( 244 ) are changed and displayed. The score position is also changed from “29:17” to “17” and displayed. Therefore, for example, when a set is changed in a set game and a court is changed between two teams, the change of court may be reflected on the display screen 210 by using the third position change button 247 .

The serving right information 248, 249a, and 249b has a function of indicating which player of which team has the right to serve in, for example, a badminton doubles match. The first serving right information 248 indicates which of the two teams has the right to serve (“sub-rights team”). For example, in the illustrated embodiment, a bar shape of a specific color is displayed below the players of the sub-rights team. can The second right to serve information 249a and 249b indicates a player who has the right to serve ("subscriber") and a player who receives ("receiver"). For example, in the illustrated embodiment, next to Player 1 ( 241 ) and Player 4 ( 244 ), respectively, different colored icons or sub-rights information 249a and 249b of a figure are displayed, which means that Player 1 ( 241 ) It is the serve and indicates that player 4 (244) is the receiver.

As such, the game management application 202 may determine who the sub-rights team, the sub-rights, and the receiver are for every score of the game and display it on the display screen 210 . An exemplary method for judging the sub right holder team, the sub right holder, and the receiver for every score will be described later with reference to FIG. 6 .

(2) Tracking the movement of players

If the wearable device 100 includes, for example, an acceleration sensor, a gyro sensor, a geomagnetic sensor, etc., the game management application 202 determines the movement of the user wearing the wearable device 100 based on the measurement data received from these sensors. can be tracked and analyzed.

For example, the wearable device 100 may transmit measurement values of the acceleration sensor, the gyro sensor, and the geomagnetic sensor to the mobile device 200 in real time. Also, the mobile device 200 may receive data for determining the location of the wearable device 100 in real time based on, for example, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) of Bluetooth.

The game management application 202 calculates the user's direction, location, movement distance, etc. based on the data received from the wearable device 100 in this way and analyzes the movement during the game time accordingly, for example, (i ) positioning analysis according to the movement (analyzes whether the athlete was in the proper position), (ii) the positioning analysis of the athlete and his/her partner (if both players of a team are wearing the wearable device 100, the two players position), (iii) measuring jump height and defensive height using the z-axis value of the sensor, and (iv) total moving distance and calorie consumption analysis (pre-stored average data or the athlete’s analysis such as whether there is more or less movement compared to the past record) can be performed.

Meanwhile, this analysis operation may be executed in the game management application 202 of the mobile device 200 , but part or all of the analysis may be performed in the server 300 depending on the amount of data or processing speed. For example, the mobile device 200 transmits various kinds of real-time data received from the wearable device 100 to the server 300 , and the server 300 performs the above-described movement line analysis. At this time, the database 400 stores, for example, game records for each player, each game, and each team (eg, each player's game record, scoring record, win/loss record, distance traveled and calories consumed in each game, partners in each doubles game, etc.) and the server 300 may perform an analysis of the player's movement using pre-stored data as needed.

(3) Score analysis

The game management application 202 may analyze the score for each player based on the previously stored data of the above-described database 400 . For example, for any given player, (i) who partnered with has a high win rate, (ii) who partnered with has a low win rate, and (iii) a score analysis for early, mid, and second half of a match, etc. Perform the analysis.

(4) Performance analysis using movement analysis and score analysis

The game management application 202 may analyze the performance of each player from the analysis data according to the above-described movement analysis and score analysis. For example, the game management application 202 may provide (i) attack power analysis (eg, positioning analysis when scoring), (ii) defense analysis (positioning analysis when running), (iii) score/run contribution for a specific player. (Analysis of each player's contribution according to positioning at the time of scoring and/or conceding), (iv) Analysis of movement area of players according to movement analysis by game time progress, etc. can be performed.

In the above-described analysis operation, the mobile device 200 receives data from the database 400 and the game management application 202 can execute it alone, but some or all of the analysis may be performed on the server 300 , In this case, the mobile device 200 may receive the analysis result of the server 300 and display it on the display screen 210 by the operation of the game management application 202 .

5 is an exemplary flowchart for determining a match score and a right to serve according to an embodiment, and assumes a badminton doubles match as an example. The following sub-rights determination method may be executed in the mobile device 200 or the server 300 , or alternatively, may be executed in the wearable device 100 . However, in the embodiment to be described below, it is assumed that the mobile device 200 is executed.

First, in step S11 , the wearable device 100 and the mobile device 200 are connected through wireless communication such as Bluetooth. In this case, the mobile device 200 may also be connected to the server 300 to communicate via wire or wirelessly.

Thereafter, the game management application 202 of the mobile device 200 is executed to input initial data for the game (S12). Here, 'initial data' is data input for game record, and includes player-related data and score-related data. The player-related data includes data on the names of four players and team combinations to be played. In this case, each player's name may be directly input in the mobile device 200 or the player list in the mobile device 200 or the database 400 . You can also select from a list if is saved in advance. The score-related data is for establishing the initial status of the right to serve and the score, for example, at least one of (i) the player's position and the serve, (ii) the player's position and the serving team, and (iii) the serve and the receiver. information about the game and the current score (eg 0:0 when the match is first started). When initial data is input into the mobile device 200 in step S12 , information about the current score, players, serving rights, etc. is displayed on the display surface 210 as shown in FIG. 5 .

After that, the game starts and whenever each team scores a goal, a user of the wearable device 100, such as a player or a referee, presses a button to transmit the score data to the mobile device 200, and the mobile device 200 receives the score data and (S20) based on this, the sub-rights, the sub-rights team, and the receiver are determined by the steps (S21 to S26), and information about this is displayed on the display screen 210 together with the score (S30).

Specifically, when the score data is received in step S20, it is determined whether the score according to the data is the current score of the sub-rights team (S21). If it is the current score of the sub-right team (S21_Yes), one point is added to the score of the sub-right team and the position of the player of the sub-right team is changed (S22). That is, the position of the player on the left court of the team with the right to serve is changed to the right court and the position of the player from the right court is changed to the left court, respectively, and the existing owner of the right to serve is maintained.

In this way, when the score, the player's position, the sub-right team, and the sub-right are updated based on the score data, information such as the score and the sub-right is displayed on the display screen 210 in step S30. At this time, the pop-up window 250 may be displayed for a predetermined time (eg, several seconds) on the display screen 210 as shown in FIG. The pop-up window 250 is overlapped and displayed on the screen 210 so that players in the game can easily and quickly recognize the right to serve, and in the illustrated embodiment, the pop-up window 250 is a sub right holder 251, a receiver 252, It may include a sub-direction arrow 253 , a sub-volume icon 254 , and a receive icon 255 , and it is desirable to show sub-volume information in a simple and simplified manner.

Also, when the pop-up window 250 is displayed on the display screen 210 as described above, a specific sound or sound may be generated through the speaker of the mobile device 200 to draw attention. In another embodiment, when the wearable device 100 is provided with a speaker, the wearable device 100 may generate a specific sound or sound informing of a score. Or, in a preferred embodiment, for example, when all four players each possess the wearable device 100, all the wearable devices 100 or the wearable device 100 of the scoring team transmit a sound or alarm about the score. The wearable device 100 of the sub-right holder may be configured to additionally transmit a sound or sound indicating that the sub-right holder is the sub-right holder, and in this case, it is possible to more clearly and reliably inform who the sub-right holder is.

Meanwhile, in step S21, if the current score is a score of the other team (ie, the receiver team) other than the serving team (S21_No), one point is added to the score of the receiver team (S23) and it is checked whether the score of the receiver team is even. It is determined (S24). If the score of the receiver team is even, it is judged that the player on the right court has the right to serve (S25), and if the score is odd, it is judged that the player on the left court has the right to serve (S26). It can be displayed on the display screen 210 (S30).

In this system, each of the remaining three wearable devices 510, 520, and 530 is connected to the main wearable device 500 by wireless communication by a communication method such as Bluetooth, as indicated by “connection 1” in the drawing, or is indicated as “connection 2” As described above, it is possible to communicate with the main wearable device 500 and the mobile device 200 at the same time, either by wireless communication with the mobile device 200 , or by “connection 1” and “connection 2” at the same time.

In this case, the operation of FIG. 5 of updating the score and determining the right to serve during the game may be executed in the mobile device 200 or the main wearable device 500, and the remaining three wearable devices 510, 520, and 530 are the two devices. Among 200,500, only a device executing the operation of FIG. 5 may be connected (ie, “connected 1” or “connected 2”).

When a plurality of wearable devices 5005, 510, 520, and 530 are connected through a network as described above, for example, when scoring data is input with the input button of the main wearable device 500 for every score, the wearable device 500 or the mobile device 200 in FIG. 5 , and the updated game information is transmitted to the main wearable device 500 and the remaining wearable devices 510 , 520 , and 530 to display the game information on the display of each wearable device.

Meanwhile, at this time, if a score input is possible with the input button of each wearable device, rather confusion occurs in calculating the score. For example, in the device connection step ( S11 ) of FIG. 5 , two or more wearable devices are networked with each other or the mobile device 200 . It is preferable to further include the step of controlling to select one wearable device as the main wearable device, activate only the input button of the main wearable device, and deactivate the input button of the other wearable device when connected to.

Fig. 9 is a block diagram of a game information display system according to still another alternative embodiment.

The game information display system according to FIG. 9 includes a main wearable device 500 , one or more additional wearable devices 510 , 520 , 530 , a server 300 , and a database 400 . Since each component of the wearable device, the server, and the database has the same or similar configuration and function as those described with reference to FIGS. 1, 7, and 8 , a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

However, the mobile device 200 is omitted in FIG. 9 . That is, in the system of FIG. 9, all players each have one wearable device 500, 510, 520, 530, but each wearable device 500, 510, 520, 530 network with each other in a way such as Bluetooth (“connection 1”) or wirelessly communicate with the server 300 ( "Connection2") is configured. Alternatively, only one wearable device per team may be possessed. In this case, the main wearable device 500 is carried by a player of one team and one additional wearable device 510 is carried by a player of the other team.

In the embodiment of FIG. 9 , the operation of FIG. 5 of updating the score and determining the right to serve may be executed in the main wearable device 500 or the server 300 for every score during the game, and the remaining three wearable devices 510 , 520 , and 530 are two Among the devices 200 and 500, only a device executing the operation of FIG. 5 may be connected (ie, “connected 1” or “connected 2”).

Also, since confusion may occur when entering scores in a plurality of wearable devices, for example, in the device connection step S11 of FIG. 5 , when two or more wearable devices are networked with each other or connected to the mobile device 200, one wearable device By selecting the device as the main wearable device, it is possible to control to activate only the input button of the main wearable device and deactivate the input button of the other wearable device.

In this way, when a plurality of wearable devices 5005, 510, 520, and 530 are connected through a network, when scoring data is input with the input button of the main wearable device 500 for every score, the score shown in FIG. 5 in the wearable device 500 or the server 300 and a sub right update operation, and transmits the updated game information to the main wearable device 500 and the remaining wearable devices 510 , 520 , and 530 to display the game information on the display of each wearable device.

On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 , when each player or each team owns a wearable device, the method of FIG. 5 may further include an operation ( S30 ) of notifying the right to serve through a speaker of the wearable device.

For example, if each team owns one wearable device, only the wearable device of the team that has the right to serve sends a sub right alarm of a specific sound or sound, and if all four players possess one wearable device, only the wearable device of the sub right holder sends a sub right alarm can inform the person who has the right to serve, so it can help the smooth progress of the game by notifying the players who have the right to serve more quickly and clearly who has the right to serve.
