A portable golf environment measuring system and method for guiding a putting distance or putting direction according to a slope.

Recently, due to the expansion of leisure life and the increase in national income, the general public's perception of golf is changing. Golf, which was considered exclusive to the rich in the past, has become a popular sport that can be enjoyed by anyone regardless of gender or age due to the increase in golf infrastructure and the spread of screen golf.

The golf game is played on a course consisting of 9 or 18 holes, and when you start hitting the first stroke from the tee shot position of each hole and insert a golf ball into the hole cup installed in the green, the game at the current hole ends with a hole out. .

In the process of playing such a golf game, it is very important to determine the remaining distance from the current position of the golf ball to the hole cup. That is, a player in a golf game can select a golf club suitable for the golf game by knowing exactly the remaining distance from the current position of the golf ball to the hole cup. To this end, in the prior art, the remaining distance from the current position of the golf ball to the hole cup is measured by rough sighting based on the experience of a caddy (game helper) or a fixed structure for distance display, or by the user's own sighting. The remaining distance is measured, and a golf club is selected according to the measured remaining distance to hit the golf ball.

For example, putting (putting) is to put a ball lying on the green into a hole cup where a flag stands, and in golf, a game of one hole is finished by putting a ball into a hole cup. When putting, a golfer must accurately grasp the state of the green, such as the slope and curvature, and must hit the ball accurately and sensitively according to the intended plan to put the ball into the hole cup. Putting is one of the most difficult processes in golf because it does not allow any mistakes. In fact, during putting, a golf club specially designed for putting, called a putter, is used.

Therefore, in order to putt accurately, golfers must accurately grasp the condition of the green from multiple angles. In general, a golfer determines a hitting point, a hitting direction, and a hitting strength by comprehensively integrating the wind direction, the inclination angle of the green, the direction of the slope, the distance between the hole cup and the ball, and the texture of the green grass.

Recently, various measuring devices have been proposed that automatically measure the remaining distance from the current position of the golf ball to the hole cup and inform the player of the game. Most of these measuring devices use GPS (Global Positioning System) information, and mobile devices carried by gamers receive the GPS information to determine the player's current location, and the determined current location information and the pre-stored position of the hole cup. The remaining distance from the current position to the hole cup is calculated using information, etc., and the calculated remaining distance is displayed on the display unit to notify the user.

In addition, step-by-step input and algorithm correction are executed for the green speed of the golf course to be used by the user, for example, fast, normal, or slow (S50). Such correction can be executed through the user terminal 20, and the corrected information is stored in the storage unit 12 through the receiver 11 of the portable golf environment measuring device 10.

Through the above process, user personalization of the portable golf environment measuring device 10 is completed for the golf course to be used by the user (S60).

When the data collection and learning process in the portable golf environment measuring device 10 as described above is completed, the golf environment measurement for actual putting from the green to the hole cup is executed as shown in FIG. 10 .

For example, when the operation button 120 is clicked for about 3 seconds in the power off state (S100), the power is turned on (S110). Meanwhile, when the power is turned off, the charging mode may be performed through the USB connector 220, and the remaining capacity of the battery 210 may be displayed. In the above description, the operation of the portable golf environment measuring device 10 has been described as a structure in which the operation is executed by the operation button 120, but is not limited thereto and may be executed by a structure in which the display unit 110 is touched. Also, in the following description, a structure of clicking the operation button 120 is described, but is not limited thereto and may be realized by a structure of touching the screen of the display unit 110.

If the operation button 120 is clicked for about 3 seconds in the step S110, the current mode state is saved, and the state returns to the step S100 state and is maintained in an OFF state.

Meanwhile, after the power is turned on in step S110, a previously stored mode screen is displayed on the display unit 110 (S130), and then a mode change may be displayed (S140). The above-described process may be executed on the user's hand. Next, when the operation button 120 is double-clicked in step S140, the wind direction and speed sensed in real time by the wind direction and wind speed sensor 13 in the wind direction mode are displayed on the display unit 110 as shown in FIG. (S150).

Subsequently, it proceeds to the angle mode (S160), and when the user places the portable golf environment measuring device 10 on the green, as shown in FIG. 8 in real time, the slope and slope direction at the current location are displayed in the normal mode ( S170). That is, the inclination detected by the inclination sensor 14 is displayed as an angle in the central portion, and the inclination direction is displayed in a golf ball shape.

Next, in step S170, the user may click the operation button 120 or touch the screen of the display unit 110, put it down on the ground, and execute the measurement mode (S180).

In the measurement mode, for example, the actual putting distance from the green to the hole cup can be executed while the user is walking. That is, clicking the operation button 120 or touching the screen of the display unit 110, walking one step, putting the portable golf environment measuring device 10 down on the ground (S190), and then again the portable golf environment measuring device 10 Holding up, clicking the operation button 120 or touching the screen of the display unit 110, walking one more step, and putting the portable golf environment measuring device 10 down on the ground corresponds to the actual putting distance from the green to the hole cup Repeat as many times as desired (S190). Next, as shown in FIG. 11 by shaking the portable golf environment measuring device 10 for algorithm calculation in the control unit 15, the final calculated value is displayed on the display unit 110 (S200).

11 is a diagram showing a state in which the putting distance according to the slope and the putting direction according to the slope are displayed on the display unit by the portable golf environment measuring device according to the present invention.

In FIG. 11, for example, the corrected putting distance according to the slope for the actual putting distance (user's 3 steps) from the green to the hole cup according to the slope and slope direction shown in FIG. As the putting direction, hole cup right indicates 5.5.

As shown in FIG. 11 , after the putting distance according to the corrected slope and the putting direction according to the slope are displayed on the display unit 110, the process proceeds to the normal mode of step S170. In addition, after a certain period of time, the power of the portable golf environment measuring device is turned off and the step S100 is performed.

As described above, by using the portable golf environment measuring system and measuring method according to the present invention, the user can accurately putt from the green to the hole cup.

Although the invention made by the present inventors has been specifically described according to the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments and can be changed in various ways without departing from the gist of the invention.

By using the portable golf environment measurement system and measurement method according to the present invention, the user can execute accurate putting by guiding the compensated putting distance and the compensated putting direction according to the slope according to the slope.
