In general, the golf range finder from the prior art is widely used by the method of simply measuring the distance from the position of the golfer to the green using GPS information and telling the golfer about this.

However, in this method, most of the devices show only the distance between the specific coordinates of the green and the golfer's position in text form, and in this way, the golfer's current position from the current position to the green is not known. Since the game must be operated only with distance values, its utility is extremely limited and is not widely used.

In other words, it is thought that it is difficult to adjust the driving force according to the new text of the distance value, even if the golfer does not get any help in improving his batting ability and knows the distance value.

One example is a system appearance diagram.

1 is a block diagram illustrating a hardware configuration of a distance measuring unit U as a system implemented by applying the distance measuring and displaying method for a golfer of the present invention.

A device embodied as a plurality of elements mounted on a circuit board PB housed in an exemplary casing C having a shape as shown in FIG. 7, the operation control unit 50 being a main controller, the operation control unit 50, and a golfer ( It is an interface with P), and the golfer P can grasp the position and time of the golfer P by inputting the position coordinates from the GPS satellites and the key input unit 10 to allow the golfer P to select according to various operation modes during the golf game. A display unit 30 such as a color LCD for displaying a result according to an operation control signal inputted as a GPS receiver 20 and a display device;

In order to display the GPS information according to the processing signal from the operation control unit 50, the golfer (P) as a GPS reception so that the golfer (P) can always easily recognize the status such as the GPS reception status and location identification. If the position determination is performed, the LED part is operated to blink, otherwise the LED part is operated to be turned off so that the distance measuring unit is always operated regardless of the operation of the various display units 30 such as the sleep mode. P) has a GPS indicator (60) configured as a peripheral device so that it can grasp the GPS reception situation,

As the main data, a specific golf course map image data storage unit 41 which stores GIS data according to the hole course C of the golf course where the golfer P plays the game internally, and records recorded by the golfer P at the golf course Has a personal record data storage unit 42, the system code storage unit 43, which is stored separately by date or by golf course in the memory unit 40 that can be expanded and replaced as an internal or external connection.

The operation control unit 50 reads the information recorded in the memory unit 40 according to the signal output from the key input unit 10, performs calculation using the signal output from the GPS receiver 20, and displays the display unit ( 30) to output the operation control signal.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart for explaining a method for performing auto-expansion according to resizing of a golf course image, which is one of the main functions in the distance measuring unit U of the present invention as the hardware system described above.

When the program logic is performed, the golfer P is in the course of a golf game to determine the position of the golfer P based on the signal from the GPS receiver 20 which receives a signal from the GPS satellite (S200), and the identified position It is determined whether the golf course is in the hole course (C) of the golf course (S201), and if the position of the golfer (P) is in the periphery rather than inside the hole course (C) (NO) the image of the whole hole course ( S205 is shown on the display unit 30 (S206),

Otherwise, if the position of the golfer (P) exists at any point in the golf course hole course (Yes), the calculation control unit 50 calculates the position of the golfer (P) and the distance to the green (G) ( S202).

Based on the calculated distance value, the arithmetic and control unit 50 may determine the size of the screen to be displayed on the display unit 30 from a certain point on the course of the golf course where the golfer P is located to the green G. Will be.

The position of the golfer (P) and the map image up to the green (G) is retrieved from the golf course map image data storage unit 41 to resize the image to fit the screen size of the display unit 30 (S203), and the green ( The map image is rotated (S204) such that the position of G) is positioned at the top of the display unit.

In this way, when the re-sizing operation by resizing the map image is displayed on the display unit 30 (S206), the automatic image expansion routine is terminated.

When the golfer (P) moves while playing a golf shot from the tee box (T) of the golf course hole course (C) toward the green (G), the distance between the green (G) of the golfer (P) keeps narrowing and the distance measuring unit The map image to be displayed in (U) must be continuously enlarged.

To this end, the distance measuring unit U automatically grasps the position of the golfer P based on the GPS receiver 20 and accordingly, the size most optimized for the display unit 30 of the distance measuring unit U accordingly. In other words, it is preferable to view the map image as large as possible on the display unit 30 having a given size, since it is preferable in view of the visibility and readability of the golfer P. The enlarged image is displayed.

In addition, the golfer P moves toward the green G by adopting a method of rotating the image so that the green G is always positioned at the top of the terminal in consideration of the position of the golfer P and the direction of the green G. The image is automatically updated in the same direction as the golf course.

Figure 3 is a view for helping to understand the enlargement of the map image of the golfer distance measurement and display method of the present invention, the map image of the golf hole course (C) displayed on the display unit 30 in the tee box (T) A map image M2 at the center of M1 and the golf hole course C is illustrated by way of example.

Comparing the actual two map images (M1, M2), the green (G) is always placed in front of the golfer (P) can easily know the movement path, the position of the golfer (P) green (G) side The more the image is directed toward, the larger the image is displayed.

For example, the distance measurement unit U, which is a system given when the actual distance Rl from the tee box T to the green G is 400 m and the golfer P is located in the tee box T before golf starts. If the upper and lower width of the screen window of the display unit 30 at 10) is 10 cm, the operation control unit 50 retrieves the map image M1 from the golf course map image data storage unit 41 and shows it in the display unit 30 window. The upper and lower sizes of the map image M1 of the golf course C are also shown to be limited to within 10 cm.

If the golfer P is in a distance of 100 m from the green G, the size of the map image M2 that can be displayed in the display unit 30 is 8 times even if the area ratio is 8 times. The location and the green (G) can be seen as an enlarged map image (M2), and the golfer (P) and the map image (M2 ') below the green (G) is unnecessary, so a method of providing an enlarged map image is possible. To adopt.

Figure 4 is a flow chart for the golf player distance measurement and display method, the automatic recognition method of the hole course (C) and the start of the golf game.

When the golfer (P) is moved to the hole course (C) of the golf course to start the golf game automatically recognizes the hole course (C) to start the golf game and the position of the golfer (P) Continuously grasping the map image shown on the display unit 30 of the distance measuring unit (U) to the method for automatically changing to match the position of the golfer (P).

First, the arithmetic and control unit 50 determines the current position of the golfer P by the GPS receiver 20 receiving a signal from the GPS satellite (S300).

It is determined whether the identified current position is in the tee box (T) area of the golf course hole course (S301), and if the position of the golfer (P) is in the tee box (T) area of the hole course (C) of the golf course If yes (Yes), the display unit 30 displays the entire map image (M1) of the corresponding hole course (C) (S304),

The distance measuring unit (U) enters the start of the golf game (S308) mode, otherwise (N0), once again determine whether the golfer (P) is located in a particular hole course (C) area of the golf course (S302) You will go through the process.

If the golfer P is not in the tee box T region of the hole course C of the golf course (No), the golfer P exists in the specific hole course C region stored in the golf course map image data storage 41. (Yes), the display unit 30 of the distance measuring unit U displays the entire map image M1 of the specific hole course C (S305).

And while the golfer (P) enters the tee box (T) of the hole course (C) of the golf course, the distance measuring unit (U) is looped back to the logic of S300 to determine the position of the golfer (P) continuously It is determined whether the golfer (P) enters the tee box (T), that is, start the game.

If the golfer (P) is not in a specific golf course hole course (C) area (No) in the determination unit of S302 (Sn), it is determined whether the position of the golfer (P) is in the designated area of the specific golf course (S303) and the display unit At 30, the entire map image of the golf course is displayed.

If it is not even in the designated area of the golf course, the display unit 30 displays the background screen set by the manufacturer or the user setting of the terminal basically, that is, it is absent from the golf course, so the use of the distance measuring unit U is unnecessary. The distance measuring unit (U) will be recognized.

By configuring as described above, when the golfer (P) moves from the golf course to the corresponding hole course (C) for the golf game, the entire image of the golf course is displayed first, and then the hole course (C) of the golf course of his choice ) Area is displayed, and finally the map image M1 of the golf hole course C where the golfer himself wants to start a game is displayed on the display unit 30.

Particularly, when the tee box (T) of the hole course (C) arrives, the distance measuring unit (U) automatically enters the golf game progress mode so that the golfer (P) can use conveniently. It becomes the number.

5 is a diagram illustrating a data structure stored in the golf course map image data storage unit 41 of the map image of the golf course, hole course (C) by way of example.

Map image data is largely the portion showing the map image and coordinates 400 of the entire golf course, the portion showing the map image (M1) and coordinates 401 for each hole course (C) of each golf course, the portion of the hole course (C) Map image and coordinates for each hole, the part showing the coordinates 402 of the inflection point (Dp) according to the characteristics of the hole course (C), and the map image and coordinates of the left and right greens (G) of each hole course (C) It is largely divided into parts representing 403.

The image data of the golf course map classified as described above is located in the internal or external memory of the memory unit 40 of the distance measuring unit (U) constituting the system of the present invention and is based on the coordinates mapped with all the map images. ,

Based on the value of the GPS receiver 20, the position of the golfer P can be accurately displayed on the map image by comparing the position of the golfer P with the value determined, and the position of the golfer P is treated as a specific icon. By doing so, the current position of the golfer P can be easily recognized on the map image of the display unit 30.

In addition, in the case of hazards and bunkers located in each hole, the coordinates are accurate so that the direction and the degree of adjacency, as well as the distance from the position of the golfer P, can be clearly understood.

In the case of the golf hole course (C), the distance from the tee box (T) to the green (G) generally represents the total length of the hole with respect to the straight line distance, but it is too far for the golfer (P) to golf in the straight direction. It is often the case that the actual golfer (P) is a golf ball to the fairway portion of the hole, in this case, considering the so-called 'dog leg' which is the actual distance is bent the description of Figure 7 It will be longer as shown.

Accordingly, the linear distance SL of the hole course C that the golfer P knows has a large difference from the moving distance ML to which the golfer P should actually attack, and the golfer P determines the value of the distorted distance. I had to run a game based on that.

In order to compensate for this problem, the corresponding hole course (C) is bent in the map image and coordinate data of each hole course (C) of each hole course (C) of the golf course, so that the linear distance (SL) and the moving distance (ML) If a difference occurs, the coordinates of a separate inflection point Dp are provided in the map image data, and a distance is calculated and displayed to the golfer P based on the inflection point Dp.

By doing this, the golfer P can help to secure his golf approach based on two distances: the actual unavoidable travel distance ML and the actual straight distance SL.

Figure 7 shows an exemplary appearance of the distance measuring unit (U) that can be implemented as a single unit by applying the distance measuring and display method for golfers of the present invention.

The distance measuring unit U, which can be designed in various shapes, incorporates the hardware configuration of the present invention in the casing C on the circuit board PB to implement the display unit 30 as a color LCD.

The golf course map image data storage unit 41 can be replaced when the golf course is changed by embedding the key input unit 10, the GPS receiver 20, the GPS indicator 60, and the various hole courses C as various input means. And a memory slot 70 that can be attached and detached using an external memory such as a CF memory, a personal record data storing unit 42 storing and storing the records played by the golfer P on a golf course by date or golf course, or Data retrieval connector 80 for transferring personal record data storage unit 42 to a personal computer (PC) and inserting an external connector such as a USB to enable management of individual grades with a separate management program (CD) Of course, such a configuration can be changed configuration according to the model or the price of the applied product, of course.

The usefulness of the golfer distance measuring and display method of the present invention and the application of the distance measuring unit to which the method is applied is not the distance measuring unit U as a separately manufactured unit. The present invention is also applicable to portable communication devices such as terminals (PDAs).

Depending on the golfer P, there are people who do not like to carry additional units, and such people can implement and use the mobile phone or PDA which always carries the present invention.

For example, in the case of the mobile phone H, most mobile communication companies provide various contents, and the mobile communication company provides the contents as a packaged area of the area mainly performed by the operation control unit 50 according to the present invention. The golf course map image data storage unit 41, which is downloaded as (H) and contains a relatively large map image, is an external memory (M) for storing a mobile phone and is configured for each golf course in the country and inserted into the slot ST. In some cases, such as a large-capacity memory or a built-in hard disk, the external memory (M) is, of course, unnecessary.

The map image data of the golf course of the country can also be provided by the mobile communication company as a separate content for each national golf course, the user can download and provide to the internal or external memory of the mobile phone (H).

In this way, the user can download and use the map image of the golf course he / she is traveling on his mobile phone H for a fee. In this way, as the golf population increases day by day, the mobile communication service provider or mobile phone maker can be provided as a standard program in various configurations.

Therefore, the key input unit 10, which is a control operation of the user who controls the arithmetic and control unit 50, is programmatically assigned to the keypad K of a conventional mobile phone and programmed.

In order to transmit a GPS signal to the operation control unit 50 using a blank signal line such as a earphone 9 pin connector (CT), the GPS receiver 20 which receives the GPS signal is configured and provided as a separate GPS receiver unit (GU). By inserting the same as the above-described distance measuring unit (U) of the present invention can be configured in the same manner, or in the case of a mobile phone with a built-in GPS receiving unit (GU) can be configured without additional installation.

In addition, it can of course be provided in the same concept to the various types of PDA.

Golf distance measuring and display method of the present invention and the distance measuring unit to which the method is applied provides a current device of the golfer on the map image and can be configured as a variety of devices to provide a measuring device with a sense of reality and presence Has the utility of
