如第3圖所示,伺服器S可包括自動球場產生器310、球場編輯器330、以及球場繪圖器340。伺服器S進一步包括球場調節器350,藉以設計高爾夫球場。As shown in FIG. 3, the server S may include an automatic court generator 310, a court editor 330, and a court plotter 340. The server S further includes a court adjuster 350 for designing a golf course.
當使用者設計配置高爾夫球場之球洞時,球場調節器350設定配置球洞之不同單元的多個條件。When the user designs and configures a hole in the golf course, the court adjuster 350 sets a plurality of conditions for configuring different units of the hole.
球場調節器350可使用不同方法以設定條件。較佳的是,使用者使用使用者終端或高爾夫模擬器GS以存取伺服器S,並使用介面裝置以直接選取所需條件,藉以設定用於設計配置使用者定義高爾夫球場之球洞的條件。The course adjuster 350 can use different methods to set conditions. Preferably, the user uses the user terminal or the golf simulator GS to access the server S, and uses the interface device to directly select the required conditions, thereby setting conditions for designing and configuring the hole of the user-defined golf course. .
亦即,當伺服器S是使用使用者終端或高爾夫模擬器GS而被存取時,伺服器S提供介面裝置給連結的使用者終端或高爾夫模擬器GS,讓使用者能選取用於設計配置使用者定義高爾夫球場之球洞的條件。That is, when the server S is accessed using the user terminal or the golf simulator GS, the server S provides the interface device to the connected user terminal or the golf simulator GS, so that the user can select the design configuration. The user defines the conditions of the hole in the golf course.
使用者可使用在使用者終端或高爾夫模擬器GS中執行的介面裝置以選取特定條件。所選取的條件是藉球場調節器350而設定成用於設計配置使用者定義高爾夫球場之一球洞的條件。自動球場產生器310依據所設定的條件而自動產生一球洞。The user can use the interface device executed in the user terminal or golf simulator GS to select specific conditions. The selected condition is set by the court adjuster 350 to be used to design a condition for configuring a hole in one of the user-defined golf courses. The automatic court generator 310 automatically generates a hole in accordance with the set conditions.
雖然伺服器S在此只提供介面裝置給使用者終端或高爾夫模擬器GS,但是伺服器S可提供用於製作使用者定義高爾夫球場的球場製作器,給連結的使用者終端或高爾夫模擬器GS,使得使用者終端或高爾夫模擬器GS執行用於製作使用者定義高爾夫球場的球場製作器,藉以製作使用者定義高爾夫球場。Although the server S only provides the interface device to the user terminal or the golf simulator GS, the server S can provide a course maker for creating a user-defined golf course, for the connected user terminal or the golf simulator GS. The user terminal or golf simulator GS executes a court maker for making a user-defined golf course to create a user-defined golf course.
在此,因對球場調節器350所設定的條件包括如是否將球洞設定至標準桿4桿之球洞(PAR 4 HOLE)或標準桿5桿之球洞(PAR 5 HOLE),是否球洞的形狀為筆直或彎曲,是否球洞具有狗腿球洞形狀,是否果嶺被設定成旗桿定位所在的左邊果嶺及/或右邊果嶺,草皮狀態,或是否插入果嶺週邊。Here, whether the conditions set for the court adjuster 350 include, for example, whether the hole is set to a par 4 hole (PAR 4 HOLE) or a par 5 hole (PAR 5 HOLE), is the hole? The shape is straight or curved, whether the hole has a dog-leg hole shape, whether the green is set to the left green and/or the right green where the flagpole is located, the turf state, or whether it is inserted around the green.
自動球場產生器310載入資料庫200的球場自動產生資料儲存部260中所儲存的資料,並依據球場調節器350所設定的條件以執行預設程式,藉以自動產生一個或多個球洞,以適合所設定的條件。The automatic course generator 310 loads the data stored in the course automatic generation data storage unit 260 of the database 200, and executes a preset program according to the conditions set by the course adjuster 350, thereby automatically generating one or more holes. To suit the conditions set.
自動球場產生器310可產生球洞設計,其情況是,其中配置高爾夫球場球洞之所有單元的條件係由球場調節器350所設定,或可讓使用者能只設定某些條件並自動設定其餘條件,係使用預設程式依據使用者所設定的條件以產生球洞設計。The automatic court generator 310 can generate a hole design, in which case the conditions in which all of the units of the golf course hole are configured are set by the course adjuster 350, or the user can set only certain conditions and automatically set the rest. Conditions are based on the conditions set by the user to generate a hole design using a preset program.
自動球場產生器310可供應不同的球洞設計,並包括在使用者定義高爾夫球場中的選取球洞設計,如果使用者選取所供應之不同球洞設計的至少其中之一。The automatic court generator 310 can supply different hole designs and includes a selected hole design in the user defined golf course if the user selects at least one of the different hole designs provided.
球場製作器可進一步包括用以載入儲存於高爾夫球場資料儲存部230中關於現有高爾夫球場之資料的單元,用於資料庫200的高爾夫模擬,並包括使用者定義高爾夫球場中的選取球洞,如果使用者選取配置顯有高爾夫球場的數個球洞中的至少其中之一以設計使用者定義高爾夫球場時。The stadium maker may further include means for loading data stored in the golf course data storage unit 230 with respect to the existing golf course, for golf simulation of the database 200, and including a selected hole in the user-defined golf course. If the user selects at least one of a plurality of holes in the golf course to design a user-defined golf course.
球場編輯器330編輯包括自動球場產生器310自動產生之球洞的使用者定義高爾夫球場,而且球場繪圖器340進行繪圖操作,使得包含自動球場產生器310自動產生之球洞的高爾夫球場或球場編輯器330所編輯的高爾夫球場被用於虛擬高爾夫模擬中。The course editor 330 edits the user-defined golf course including the hole automatically generated by the automatic course generator 310, and the course plotter 340 performs a drawing operation such that the golf course or course editing including the hole automatically generated by the automatic course generator 310 The golf course edited by the device 330 is used in the virtual golf simulation.
設計使用者定義高爾夫球場之處理的實例將參考第4圖至第11圖而說明。An example of designing a user-defined golf course processing will be described with reference to Figures 4 through 11.
第4圖至第11圖為顯示當使用者存取伺服器以執行高爾夫球場製作器時介面螢幕實例的示意圖。4 through 11 are schematic diagrams showing an example of an interface screen when a user accesses a server to execute a golf course maker.
如果介面裝置是在使用者終端或高爾夫模擬器GS中執行,則第4圖所示的介面螢幕320可被輸出。If the interface device is executed in the user terminal or golf simulator GS, the interface screen 320 shown in FIG. 4 can be output.
如第4圖至第8圖所示,用於設定給設計使用者定義高爾夫球場用的多個單元之特定條件的條件設定螢幕325,可被輸出到介面螢幕320的一側邊上,而且用於顯示自動球場產生器310所自動產生之球洞的高爾夫產生顯示螢幕321,可依據所設定條件而被輸出到該螢幕的另一側邊。As shown in FIGS. 4 to 8, a condition setting screen 325 for setting a specific condition for the design user to define a plurality of units for the golf course can be outputted to one side of the interface screen 320, and used. The golf display display screen 321 for displaying the hole automatically generated by the automatic course generator 310 can be output to the other side of the screen according to the set conditions.
條件設定螢幕325可顯示單元設定部分325-1至325-3,用於設定配置球洞之不同單元的不同條件。在第4圖至第7圖中,係顯示球洞設定部分325-1、果嶺設定部分325-2以及球道設定部分325-3的實例。The condition setting screen 325 can display the unit setting sections 325-1 to 325-3 for setting different conditions for configuring different units of the hole. In Figs. 4 to 7, an example of the hole setting portion 325-1, the green setting portion 325-2, and the ball path setting portion 325-3 is shown.
亦即,如果顯示球洞設定部分325-1的“球洞條件選取1”是在第4圖所示的螢幕狀態中被選取,則用於設定要設計之球洞的第一條件的選單顯示如第5圖圖所示。如果“標準桿5桿之球洞-500碼(PAR 5 HOLE-500 yards)”被選取當作“球洞條件選取1(hole condition selection 1)”,則要設計的球洞係設定成標準桿5桿之球洞(PAR 5 HOLE),且長度設定成500碼。That is, if the "hole condition selection 1" of the display hole setting portion 325-1 is selected in the screen state shown in Fig. 4, the menu display for setting the first condition of the hole to be designed is displayed. As shown in Figure 5. If "PAR 5 HOLE-500 yards" is selected as "hole condition selection 1", the hole system to be designed is set to par 5-pole hole (PAR 5 HOLE) with a length set to 500 yards.
如第6圖所示,“球洞條件選取2(hole condition selection 2)”被選取時,顯示出用於設定要設計之球洞的第二條件的選單。如果設定“筆直球洞-簡單直線型(straight hole-simple linear type)”,則要設計的球洞形狀被設定成簡單直線。As shown in Fig. 6, when "hole condition selection 2" is selected, a menu for setting the second condition of the hole to be designed is displayed. If the "straight hole-simple linear type" is set, the shape of the hole to be designed is set to a simple straight line.
此時,不需必定要選取特定條件,且可選取“隨機”,以使得條件可被任意設定。At this time, it is not necessary to select a specific condition, and "random" can be selected so that the condition can be arbitrarily set.
如果OK鍵326a是在果嶺設定部分325-2的項目之條件係如第7圖所示而設定之後被選取,則設定部分的項目之條件是以這種方式設定,且沙坑設定部分325-9以及障礙設定部分325-10的項目之條件係如第8圖所示而設定,自動產生球洞設計510以及520係顯示於球場產生顯示螢幕321上。If the OK key 326a is selected after the condition of the item of the green setting portion 325-2 is set as shown in Fig. 7, the condition of the item of the setting portion is set in this manner, and the bunk setting portion 325 The conditions of the items of -9 and the obstacle setting portion 325-10 are set as shown in Fig. 8, and the automatic generated hole design 510 and 520 are displayed on the course display screen 321 .
此時,自動產生的球洞設計是分開顯示。在第8圖的實例中,設計是個別顯示於所建議的視窗322a及322b中。At this point, the automatically created hole design is displayed separately. In the example of Figure 8, the design is shown individually in the suggested windows 322a and 322b.
如果第二建議設計520是從第8圖所示的兩建議設計中選取,如第9圖所示,則顯示出使用者定義高爾夫球場視窗327,以使得所選取的設計定義成使用者定義高爾夫球場的球洞(在第9圖中,使用者定義高爾夫球場的第五球洞)。If the second suggested design 520 is selected from the two suggested designs shown in FIG. 8, as shown in FIG. 9, the user-defined golf course window 327 is displayed such that the selected design is defined as a user-defined golf. The hole in the court (in Figure 9, the user defines the fifth hole in the golf course).
使用者定義高爾夫球場視窗327包括主要螢幕327a以及用於顯示主要螢幕327a上球洞的球洞顯示視窗327c。用於進行編輯高夫球場所必要的不同功能的選單單元327b可顯示在主要螢幕327a的一側邊上。The user defined golf course window 327 includes a primary screen 327a and a hole display window 327c for displaying a hole in the primary screen 327a. A menu unit 327b for performing the different functions necessary for editing the golf ball venue can be displayed on one side of the main screen 327a.
球場產生顯示螢幕321上選單單元327b的球洞設計520係如第8圖所示而選取,且所選取的設計是顯示於使用者定義高爾夫球場視窗327的第五球洞視窗327c中,如第9圖所示的選取球洞605。The ball hole design 520 of the course display menu unit 327b on the screen 321 is selected as shown in FIG. 8, and the selected design is displayed in the fifth hole window 327c of the user-defined golf course window 327, as described in Figure 9 shows the selection of the hole 605.
配置使用者定義高爾夫球場的球洞係使用上述方法最後製作出使用者定義高爾夫球場而設計。The hole in which the user-defined golf course is configured is designed using the above method to create a user-defined golf course.
使用者不一定需要使用用以設定條件之方法以配置使用者定義高爾夫球場的所有球洞。如第10圖及第11圖所示,數個球洞可從配置現有高爾夫球場之球洞中選取,且所選取的球洞可被包含成配置使用者定義高爾夫球場的球洞。The user does not necessarily need to use the method for setting conditions to configure all the holes of the user-defined golf course. As shown in Figures 10 and 11, a plurality of holes can be selected from the holes in the existing golf course, and the selected holes can be included as a hole in the user-defined golf course.
亦即,如第10圖及第11圖所示,如果從位於螢幕側邊上的鄉村俱樂部(CC)選單329中選取特定項目,則顯示球洞選取子選單329a。如果選取球洞選取子選單329a的球洞700的至少中之一,則所選取的球洞可包含作為配置使用者定義高爾夫球場的球洞。That is, as shown in Figs. 10 and 11, if a specific item is selected from the Country Club (CC) menu 329 located on the side of the screen, the hole selection sub-menu 329a is displayed. If at least one of the holes 700 of the hole selection sub-menu 329a is selected, the selected hole may include a hole as a user-defined golf course.
例如,如第10圖及第11圖所示,如果選取“KAYA CC第六球洞”,則球洞606儲存於視窗327c中,用以顯示配置使用者定義高爾夫球場之球洞的影像,藉以製作使用者定義高爾夫球場,係包含藉調節設定而設計的第一至第五球洞以及從現有高爾夫球場中選取之球洞的第六球洞。For example, as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, if "KAYA CC sixth hole" is selected, the hole 606 is stored in the window 327c for displaying an image of a hole in the user-defined golf course. A user-defined golf course is created, which includes first to fifth holes designed by adjustment settings and a sixth hole from the existing golf course.
球洞可用上述方式設定特定條件而設計,藉以製作使用者定義高爾夫球場,或可包括現有高爾夫球場的特定球洞,藉以設計使用者定義高爾夫球場。此時,較佳的是,必需設計包含18球洞的高爾夫球場。然而,並不需要設計所有的18球洞。The hole can be designed in such a way that certain conditions are set in order to create a user-defined golf course, or can include a particular hole in an existing golf course, thereby designing a user-defined golf course. At this time, it is preferable to design a golf course including 18 holes. However, there is no need to design all 18 holes.
18球洞中的某些球洞可藉設定條件而設計,而且其餘球洞可從現有高爾夫球場中隨機選取的球洞而配置,藉以設計使用者定義高爾夫球場。Some of the 18 holes can be designed by setting conditions, and the remaining holes can be configured from randomly selected holes in the existing golf course to design a user-defined golf course.
如上所述而設計的使用者定義高爾夫球場可由球場編輯器330編輯(見第3圖)。The user-defined golf course designed as described above can be edited by the course editor 330 (see Figure 3).
例如,配置使用者定義高爾夫球場之球洞的次序可改變,特定球洞可被另一球洞取代,特定球洞的背景或果嶺狀態、球洞杯的位置、球道的形狀、長草區的草皮狀態或障礙區的種類都可改變,或特定音訊、視訊或影像可插入特定球洞中。For example, the order in which the user defines the hole in the golf course can be changed, the specific hole can be replaced by another hole, the background or green state of the particular hole, the position of the hole cup, the shape of the fairway, and the length of the grass. The type of turf or obstacle can be changed, or specific audio, video or images can be inserted into a particular hole.
下文中,依據本發明實施例用於製作使用者定義高爾夫球場的方法以及使用該方法的虛擬高爾夫模擬方法將參考第12圖至第15圖而說明。Hereinafter, a method for creating a user-defined golf course and a virtual golf simulation method using the same according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 12 to 15.
如第12圖及第13圖所示,使用者存取並登入伺服器(S10)。As shown in Figures 12 and 13, the user accesses and logs in to the server (S10).
此時,CPU 100(見第3圖)從使用者資訊儲存部220中抽取並確認與使用者有關的資訊。At this time, the CPU 100 (see FIG. 3) extracts and confirms information related to the user from the user information storage unit 220.
決定登入的使用者是否執行球場製作器(S20)。如果執行球場製作器,則該方法進入下一步驟,而如果未執行,則進行另一操作(S30)。It is determined whether the user who logged in executes the course maker (S20). If the course maker is executed, the method proceeds to the next step, and if not, another operation is performed (S30).
如果執行球場製作器,則執行球場設計用的介面裝置(S40),且抽取出球場製作資料,並從資料庫載入(S50)。If the course maker is executed, the interface device for the course design is executed (S40), and the course production material is extracted and loaded from the database (S50).
使用者設定用以設定球場的特定條件,亦即配置使用者定義高爾夫球場之球洞的不同單元之條件(S60)。The user sets a specific condition for setting the course, that is, a condition for the user to define a different unit of the hole of the golf course (S60).
如果條件設定完成(S70),則球場自動產生資料是從資料庫中依據設定條而抽取出,且球洞設計係自動產生(S80)。If the condition setting is completed (S70), the automatically generated data of the course is extracted from the database according to the setting bar, and the hole design is automatically generated (S80).
球洞設計的數目可為一個或多個(第8圖所示的實例中)。CPU決定自動產生設計的數目是否為多個(S90)。如果產生設計的數目為一個,則決定產生設計是否被選取(S100)。如果如果產生設計的數目為多個,則決定該等設計的一個或更多個是否被選取(S110)。The number of hole designs can be one or more (in the example shown in Figure 8). The CPU decides whether or not the number of automatically generated designs is plural (S90). If the number of generated designs is one, it is decided whether or not the design is selected (S100). If the number of generated designs is plural, it is determined whether one or more of the designs are selected (S110).
當球洞設計如上述而產生時,使用者不一定必需使用所產生的設計。如果所產生的設計未被使用,則多個條件可重新設定,藉以產生多個設計。When the hole design is generated as described above, the user does not necessarily have to use the resulting design. If the resulting design is not used, multiple conditions can be reset to generate multiple designs.
如果完成選取所產生的設計(S120),則決定使用者定義高爾夫球場的設計是否完成(S130),然後進行後續處理。第13圖顯示出表示後續處理的流程圖。If the generated design is completed (S120), it is determined whether the user-defined golf course design is completed (S130), and then subsequent processing is performed. Figure 13 shows a flow chart showing the subsequent processing.
在球場設計完成後,使用者可編輯球場。球場編輯處理完成,則所設計的高爾夫球場最後被儲存起來(S140)。After the course design is completed, the user can edit the course. When the course editing process is completed, the designed golf course is finally stored (S140).
CPU決定所設計之高爾夫球場的球場繪圖處理是否必需進行(S150)。如果決定球場繪圖處理必需進行,則用於高爾夫模擬的高爾夫球場之影像資料依據所設計的高爾夫球場產生(S160),並進行如高爾夫球場之實體處理的操作(170),藉以完成用於虛擬高爾夫模擬的使用者定義高爾夫球場。The CPU determines whether or not the course drawing processing of the designed golf course is necessary (S150). If it is determined that the course drawing process is necessary, the image data of the golf course for golf simulation is generated according to the designed golf course (S160), and an operation such as physical processing of the golf course (170) is performed, thereby completing the use for the virtual golf. The simulated user defines the golf course.
插入特定實體的處理,比如特定視訊、影像或音訊,可相對於使用者定義高爾夫球場而進行(S180)。The process of inserting a particular entity, such as a particular video, image or audio, can be done with respect to the user defining the golf course (S180).
如果所有步驟完成,則使用者定義高爾夫球場儲存於資料庫中(S190)。If all the steps are completed, the user-defined golf course is stored in the database (S190).
使用者可執行虛擬高爾夫模擬裝置中的使用者定義高爾夫球場(UDC),並使用UDC以進行虛擬高爾夫模擬。The user can execute a user defined golf course (UDC) in the virtual golf simulation device and use the UDC for virtual golf simulation.
第14圖顯示依據本發明實施例執行虛擬高爾夫模擬中使用者定義高球場的方法。如第14圖所示,首先,進行使用者登入步驟,以進行虛擬高爾夫模擬(S100)。Figure 14 shows a method of performing a user-defined high pitch in a virtual golf simulation in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Fig. 14, first, a user login step is performed to perform virtual golf simulation (S100).
如果登入的使用者希望確認其UDC列表(S200),則讀取UDC列表。此時,模擬器從伺服器接收與使用者之UDC列表有關的資訊,並顯示使用者之UDC列表(S210)。If the logged in user wishes to confirm his UDC list (S200), the UDC list is read. At this time, the simulator receives information related to the user's UDC list from the server, and displays the user's UDC list (S210).
如果從UDC列表中選取特定UDC(S220),則從伺服器接收關於UDC列表的資料(S230),而且載入所接收到關於UDC的資料(S240)。If a specific UDC is selected from the UDC list (S220), the material about the UDC list is received from the server (S230), and the information about the UDC is received (S240).
然後,在使用者所選取之UDC中進行虛擬高爾夫模擬(S280)。Then, virtual golf simulation is performed in the UDC selected by the user (S280).
如上所述,在第14圖所示的虛擬高爾夫模擬方法中,使用者的UDC,亦即關於使用者定義高爾夫球場的資料,並非儲存於模擬裝置的儲存單元中,而是儲存在伺服器中。因此,使用者的UDC是接收來自伺服器,然後執行。As described above, in the virtual golf simulation method shown in FIG. 14, the user's UDC, that is, the information about the user-defined golf course, is not stored in the storage unit of the simulation device, but is stored in the server. . Therefore, the user's UDC is received from the server and then executed.
第15圖顯示依據本發明另一實施例的虛擬高爾夫模擬方法。既然第15圖的步驟S100至S220是等於第14圖的步驟S100至S220,所以將只說明後續步驟。Figure 15 shows a virtual golf simulation method in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention. Since steps S100 to S220 of Fig. 15 are equal to steps S100 to S220 of Fig. 14, only the subsequent steps will be explained.
如第15圖所示,虛擬高爾夫模擬裝置接收使用者所選取之UDC的設計資訊(S250),亦即表示那些條件是包含於UDC、要自動產生之球洞的配置資訊是如何依據使用者所選取的條件而配置、或那些現有高爾夫球場的球洞是被包含的設計資訊。As shown in FIG. 15, the virtual golf simulation device receives the design information of the UDC selected by the user (S250), that is, those conditions are included in the UDC, and the configuration information of the hole to be automatically generated is based on the user. The selected conditions, or those existing golf course holes, are included in the design information.
亦即,虛擬高爾夫模擬裝置不接收所有關於UDC的資料,而是只接收UDC的條件設定資訊以及關於依據設定條件而自動產生的簡要資訊,藉以依據所接收的資訊直接產生所有關於UDC的資料(S260)。That is, the virtual golf simulation device does not receive all the information about the UDC, but only receives the condition setting information of the UDC and the brief information automatically generated according to the setting conditions, thereby directly generating all the information about the UDC according to the received information ( S260).
載入所產生關於UDC的資料(S270),並在UDC中進行虛擬高爾夫模擬(S280)。The generated information about the UDC is loaded (S270), and the virtual golf simulation is performed in the UDC (S280).
