Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings.

Figure 1 is a schematic diagram showing components for implementing a growth-type character-based screen golf game method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to this drawing, the components for implementing the growth character-based screen golf game method include a user terminal 100, a server 200, and a golf course terminal 300.

An application for implementing a growth-type character-based screen golf game method (hereinafter referred to as 'screen golf game method') is installed in the user terminal 100. This will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 3 to 8.

The server 200 is connected to the user terminal 100 and the golf course terminal 300, respectively. The server 200 stores user and character information and transmits the information to the user terminal 100 and the golf course terminal 300.

The golf course terminal 300 is installed at a screen golf course and is configured to output the information on the screen of the golf course based on information loaded from the server 200.

Hereinafter, the screen golf game method of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 2.

FIG. 2 is a flow chart of the growth-type character-based screen golf game method of FIG. 1.

The screen golf game method of the present invention may be executed in a normal mode that allows the user to enjoy normal screen golf play.

If the user wants to run the normal mode, the user can start the mode by first logging into the application (S01) installed on the user terminal 100 and the golf course terminal 300 (S06). Afterwards, the user can select a field to play on the screen displayed through the golf course terminal 300 (S09), enjoy the screen golf game in a normal way (S11), and then end the game (S14).

Alternatively, the screen golf game method according to the present invention may be executed in a new mode. In this case, the user can start the mode by logging in to the application and creating a new character (S02).

When the user creates a character through the user terminal 100 and transmits the corresponding information to the server 200 (S03), the server 200 assigns a first ability value to the character information and stores it together with the character information (S04, S05). Here, the first ability value is a value for correcting the golf ball hitting ability of the character selected by the user, which will be explained in detail below.

Thereafter, when the user logs in to the golf course terminal 300 (S06), the golf course terminal 300 receives the character information and first ability information from the server 200 (S07). In addition, the golf course terminal 300 also receives mission information for each field from the server 200 (S08). Here, mission information can be said to be a type of quest that allows the user to gain additional experience points. The golf course terminal 300 can output mission information for each field on the screen so that the user can select a field taking this into account (S10).

Thereafter, when the user proceeds with the screen golf game (S11), the golf course terminal 300 corrects the actual trajectory of the golf ball hit by the user according to the first ability value (S12), and displays the corrected movement of the golf ball on the screen. The trajectory is output (S13).

When the game ends (S14), the golf course terminal 300 grants experience points to the character according to the number of game rounds or game performance of the user. When the user passes the field containing the mission, the golf course terminal 300 grants additional experience points to the user's character. Afterwards, the golf course terminal 300 adds up the basic experience points and the additional experience points (S15) and transmits this sum to the server 200 (S16). In addition, if there is an item acquired by the user while playing the game, the golf course terminal 300 also transmits this information.

The server 200 that has received the information stores it and determines whether to update the character's first ability value (S17). Specifically, if the sum of the experience points exceeds the preset range, the server 200 updates the first ability value to the second ability value so that the character can have a golf ball hitting ability that is more improved than when the character has the first ability value.

In this case, the application installed on the user terminal 100 receives the second ability level information from the server 200 (S18), thereby updating the character's golf ball hitting ability to the second ability level (S19). Through this process, users will be able to feel improved hitting ability when playing screen golf games in the future. This process can be repeated up to the nth ability level (1≤n≤30) through the above-described process.

In this way, according to the screen golf game method of the present invention, the user can experience a hitting ability that exceeds his or her own hitting ability or that of a professional player, or even a hitting ability that is only possible in the game, so the field shape can be changed accordingly. You can. Specifically, the field may be a longer, narrower, and steeper golf course, or a building forest, rooftop, road, space, etc.

Below, the process of correcting the golf ball hitting ability of the screen golf game method will be described in detail.

When a user hits a golf ball, the golf ball has motion information resulting from the hit. Such golf ball motion information may include golf ball speed, golf ball side spin, golf ball left and right direction angle, golf ball backspin, and golf ball vertical launch angle. This golf ball motion information is measured by sensors installed on the screen golf course.

This golf ball motion information is determined by the user's hitting pattern. Specifically, factors that determine a user's golf ball hitting ability include driver power, iron power, driver accuracy, iron accuracy, approach accuracy, and putter accuracy. Ultimately, the golf ball's trajectory is determined by the user's hitting ability.

According to the screen golf game method of the present invention, the user's hitting ability is improved according to the ability value assigned to the character, and thus the motion information of the golf ball is corrected.

Specifically, the first ability value and the second ability value have ability item values (stats) for each of the following items: driver power, iron power, driver accuracy, iron accuracy, approach accuracy, and putter accuracy. These item values are used to determine the golf ball's Exercise information is corrected. More specifically, among the exercise information, golf ball speed is corrected to increase proportionally by the item values (stats) of driver power and iron power, and golf ball side spin is corrected to decrease proportionally by the item value of driver accuracy and iron accuracy. , the left and right direction angles of the golf ball can be corrected to get closer to the hole cup in proportion to the item values of approach accuracy and putter accuracy.

An example of this correction process is described below.

division Increase per ability level Applicable club driver power 0.1 to 3% driver driver accuracy -5 to -1% driver iron power 0.1 to 3% Iron (3~9) iron accuracy -5 to -1% Iron (3~9) Approach accuracy -5 to -0.5% S, A, P irons putter accuracy -5 to -0.5% putter magic ability 0.1 to 3% entire

The table above is an example showing the amount by which the item value of the ability level increases when the ability point increases by 1, such as when updating from the first ability point to the second ability point.

division sportsman designer YouTuber chef Wizard driver power 2 One One One One driver accuracy One One One One One iron power One 2 One One One iron accuracy One One One One One Approach accuracy One One 2 One One putter accuracy One One One 2 One magic ability One One One One 2

The table above is an example of the initial ability item values given when a user creates a new character. In this way, the screen golf game method can be configured to have different item values depending on the character's occupation.

Job example weight weight value sportsman driver power Twice designer iron power Twice YouTuber Approach accuracy Twice chef putter accuracy Twice Wizard magic ability Twice

In addition, as shown in the table above, when the ability level increases, the item value may be configured to improve differently for each character's occupation. For example, if the item value increases by 2 when the ability level increases by 1, in the case of a sportsman, when the driver power item value in the first ability score is 2, the driver power item value in the second ability score is 2 (the first ability item value) + It can be 2 (increase when leveling up) X 2 (weight) = 6.

The process of correcting the user's actual hitting ability based on Tables 1 to 3 above is as follows.

1) driver direction angle 3.5 R (degree) A launch angle 10.3 (do) B side spin 600 L(rpm) C backspin 3000 (rpm) D ball speed 56 m/s E 2) iron direction angle 5 R (degree) F launch angle 21 (do) G side spin 600 L(rpm) H backspin 7000 (rpm) I ball speed 51 m/s J 3) Approach direction angle 5 R (degree) K launch angle 30 (do) L side spin 600 L(rpm) M backspin 9000 (rpm) N ball speed 25 m/s O 4) putter direction angle 5 R (degree) P ball speed 25 m/s Q

The table above is an example of golf ball motion information based on the user's actual hitting.

Strike ability items sign weight item

The above table is an example of assuming the item value of the first ability level based on the contents of Tables 1 to 3 in order to correct the golf ball motion information in Table 4. Here, the correction value may be composed of 100+(item value

The results of correcting the golf ball's motion information using these correction values are shown in the table below.

1) driver direction angle R (degree) launch angle (do) side spin 240 L(rpm) CxS backspin (rpm) ball speed 86.80 m/s E x R 2) iron direction angle R (degree) launch angle (do) side spin 240 L(rpm) HxU backspin (rpm) ball speed 51.05 m/s J x T 3) Approach direction angle 4.98 R (degree) Calculate back as dY x V launch angle (do) side spin L(rpm) backspin (rpm) ball speed m/s 4) putter direction angle 5 R (degree) Calculate back as dY x W ball speed m/s

Here, dY is the distance between the expected arrival point of the actual golf ball and the hole cup.

Referring to Tables 4 and 6, the corrected motion information of the golf ball showed that in the case of the driver, the side spin was reduced from 600 rpm to 240 rpm, and the golf ball speed (ball speed) increased from 56 m/s to 86.80 m/s. In this way, as the user improves the level of ability, he or she can virtually experience a skill that is much higher than his or her own.

In addition, the above-described motion information of the golf ball may also include information about the golf ball flight distance or the golf ball arrival point. In this case, the corrected motion trajectory of the golf ball can be obtained by directly considering correction values such as golf ball flight distance, etc., rather than taking correction values such as golf ball speed into consideration as above.

In addition to correcting the golf ball motion information through the above-mentioned values, the screen golf game method of the present invention can further arouse the user's interest through a separate skill item. Examples of these skills are as follows.

The level improvement of the above-mentioned abilities can be achieved through the accumulation of experience points, and these experience points can be divided into basic experience points granted to users who complete 18 holes in the field and additional experience points granted to users who clear missions for each field. Basic experience may be granted differently depending on the difficulty of each field. In addition, additional experience points can be granted upon successful field-specific missions. Increasing ability levels through the accumulation of experience points can be achieved as shown in the example below.

ability level Experience required ability level Experience required ability level Experience required One 120 11 2300 21 4300 2 300 12 2500 22 4500 3 500 13 2700 23 4700 4 800 14 2900 24 4900 5 1100 15 3100 25 5100 6 1400 16 3300 26 5300 7 1600 17 3500 27 5500 8 1800 18 3700 28 5700 9 1900 19 3900 29 5900 10 2100 20 4100 30 6100

As shown in the table above, when the sum of experience points exceeds the range set above, the server 200 updates the nth ability value to the n+1th ability value so that the character can have an improved golf ball hitting ability.

Below, an application installed on the user terminal 100 to implement the screen golf game method of the present invention will be described in detail.
