1 is a conceptual diagram showing a sensor disposed on a golf course according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 is a block diagram of a golf course safety management system according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 is an embodiment of the present invention Is a conceptual diagram of a display unit according to the present invention.

1 and 2, the golf course safety management system includes a first sensor 10 disposed in a tee shot area and detecting a second player entering a tee box 1, and a display unit 60 disposed in a tee shot area. ), A third sensor 30 disposed in the arm region 4 between the tee shot region and the green 5 region to sense a first player located in the arm region 4, and the first sensor 10. And a controller 50 for receiving a signal from the third sensor 30.

The first sensor 10 is disposed near the tee box 1 of the golf course. The first sensor 10 recognizes the movement of the first player entering for the tee shot and transmits it to the controller 50. When there are a plurality of tee boxes 1 in one hole (male only, female only), a plurality of first sensors 10 may also be arranged. The display unit 60 is disposed near the tee box 1.

The first sensor 10 may be a plurality of vibration sensors or infrared sensors. That is, the first sensor 10 may be applied without limitation as long as the first sensor 10 is configured to output a signal capable of detecting a player entering the tee shot region.

The second sensor 20 is disposed between the tee shot region and the arm region 4. The second sensor 20 detects the first player and the cart moving for the next shot after finishing the tee shot. Therefore, it is preferable that the second sensor 20 senses not only the fairway 3 region but also the cart load 2 to which the cart moves.

The second sensor 20 may be arranged to extend a plurality of vibration sensors in a row, may be arranged as two infrared sensors facing each other. That is, the second sensor 20 can be applied without any limitation as long as it can easily sense the first player and the cart to move after finishing the tee shot.

The third sensor 30 is arranged in plural in the arm region 4. The dark area 4 is defined as an area that cannot be observed at the tee shot position. Generally, the golf course is not arranged in a straight line from the tee box 1 to the green 5 region as shown in FIG. 1, and a lot of trees are arranged for landscaping. Therefore, when the first player moves after finishing the tee shot, a portion in which the second player of the next sequence cannot observe the first player occurs. In the present invention, such a region is defined as the dark region 4.

However, in the case of a hole without the dark area 4 (for example, a hole formed in a substantially straight line, etc.), a point generally located for the next stroke may be defined as the dark area 4. The dark area 4 may be determined in consideration of the distance of a general player or the environment of a golf course.

The third sensor 30 may be a vibration sensor for detecting the movement of the player. The third sensor 30 may be disposed in the plural arm regions 4 to easily detect the player being rounded.

When the signal is received from the first sensor 10, the controller 50 determines that the first player is in the tee shot, and outputs information such as a distance to the hall cup, a wind direction, and weather through the display 60. Referring to FIG. 3, the display unit 60 may include a speaker 62 and an image panel 61 to output information necessary for a player.

Subsequently, when a signal is sequentially received from the second sensor 20 and the third sensor 30 after a predetermined time elapses, it is determined that the first player moves to the dark area 4 for the next shot.

In this case, when the second player enters the tee box 1 and receives a signal from the first sensor 10 again, the controller 50 determines that the second player is preparing for the tee shot. If the continuous signal is received from the third sensor 30, the controller 50 outputs a tee shot wait signal to the display unit 60. Thus, the second player can recognize that the first player is still play in the dark area 4.

Thereafter, when a signal is received from the fourth sensor 40 disposed between the dark region 4 and the green 5, the controller 50 determines that the first player is out of the dark region 4 and displays the display unit ( 60, a tee shot possible signal is output. In this case, the fourth sensor 40 is preferably extended to the cart rod 2 in the same manner as the second sensor 20.

In addition, the controller 50 may be programmed to output the tee shot enable signal after a predetermined time has elapsed after outputting the tee shot waiting signal even though the signal is continuously received from the third sensor 30. At this time, the predetermined time may be appropriately set between about 2 to 12 minutes depending on the circumstances of the golf course. This configuration enables smooth rounding while maintaining the safety of the golf course.

1, 2, and 4, the golf course safety management method includes determining the entry of the arm region 4 of the first player, determining the entry of the tee box 1 of the second player, And determining whether the tee shot of the second player is possible.

In the determining of the entry of the female region 4 of the first player, first, when a signal is received from the first sensor 10 installed near the tee box 1, it is determined that the first player enters the tee box 1. (S10). If a signal is received from the third sensor 30 after a predetermined time elapses after the signal is received from the first sensor 10, the controller 50 indicates that the first player has finished the tee shot and moved to the dark area 4. Determine (S20).

In detail, when the second sensor 20 signal is received between the signal of the first sensor 10 and the signal of the third sensor 30, the controller 50 ends the tee shot and moves to the dark area 4. It is determined that it has moved.

As described above, since the second sensor 20 is disposed between the tee box 1 and the arm area 4 and extends to the path where the cart moves, the second sensor 20 only moves to the field after the tee shot. In addition, you can sense if you move in a cart.

Therefore, if there is no signal of the second sensor 20 between the signal of the first sensor 10 and the signal of the third sensor 30, the third sensor 30 is moved by a moving object (vehicle, animal, etc.) other than the player. It can be determined that the signal of has been operated.

According to the present invention, only when the first sensor 10 signal, the second sensor 20 signal, and the third sensor 30 signal are sequentially received, the player completes the tee shot and the dark area 4 for the next shot. Since it is determined to move to), there is an advantage in that it can accurately grasp the movement of the player.

Alternatively, even if there is no signal from the second sensor 20, if the signal of the third sensor 30 is received within a predetermined time after the signal of the first sensor 10, it may be determined that the player has moved to the dark area. According to this configuration, even when the second sensor 20 is malfunctioning, there is an advantage of accurately identifying the moving line of the player. In this case, the predetermined time may be appropriately adjusted in consideration of the distance between the tee box and the dark area.

If necessary, the fifth sensor 70 may be disposed at the front end of the arm region. Therefore, when a signal is received by the fifth sensor 70 after the signal of the second sensor 20 is received, it can be determined that the player has entered the dark part, thereby improving accuracy. The fifth sensor 70 is preferably installed at the point where the cart passes.

Thereafter, in determining whether the second player enters the tee box 1, it is determined whether a signal is received from the first sensor 10 again (S21). When the signal is received from the first sensor 10 again, it may be determined that the second player has entered the tee box 1 for the tee shot.

Subsequently, in operation S30 of determining whether the second player is capable of tee shot, when the signal of the fourth sensor 40 is received before the first sensor 10 is re-received, the first player may open the arm region 4. It is determined that the deviation is tee shot possible signal (S32). However, when a signal is continuously received from the third sensor 30, it is determined that the first player has not yet left the dark area 4 and outputs a tee shot waiting signal (S31).

However, the controller 50 may output the tee shot wait signal and then output the tee shot possible signal after a predetermined time elapses (S34). However, if the predetermined time has not yet elapsed, it is determined whether or not the tee shot of the second player is possible until the time elapses (S35). At this time, the predetermined time may be appropriately adjusted according to the circumstances of the golf course.
