Dart game device allowing authentication using throw line in remote multi-mode

A dart game apparatus, comprising:

• a dart target having a plurality of score areas;
• a sensing unit configured to sense a hit of a dart;
• and
• a bottom part including lighting units,
• wherein some of the lighting units indicate a throw line,
• the throw line is indicated when the lighting unit indicating the throw line is turned on in the bottom part, and the throw line is not indicated when the lighting unit indicating the throw line is not turned on in the bottom part,
• the bottom part further includes a touch unit extended from the throw line in an opposite direction of the dart target, and
• when a dart game player throws the dart in a state of touching the touch unit and based on a photographed image, it is authenticated that a dart game is justly performed;
• a first camera configured to photograph at least a part of the dart game plyer,
• wherein when the dart game player touches the touch unit, the first camera starts photographing, and
• wherein a moving image photographed by the first camera is for a predetermined time section including a time point at which a dart game motion is generated.

A method of authenticating whether a dart game player justly participates in a dart game by a dart game apparatus, in which a remote multi-mode is available, the method comprising:

• confirming whether a touch unit is touched by the dart game player;
• and
• when the touch unit is touched, starting to photograph, by at least some of a plurality of cameras, at least a part of the dart game player or at least a part of the dart target;
• and
• authenticating that the dart game is justly played when the touch unit is touched and based on the photographed image,
• wherein a moving image photographed by at least some of the plurality of cameras is for a predetermined time section including a time point at which a dart game motion is generated.

A method of authenticating whether a dart game player justly participates in a dart game by a dart game apparatus, in which a remote multi-mode is available, the method comprising:

• indicating a throw line or a touch unit when the dart game apparatus starts;
• recognizing, by the dart game player, the touch unit from the indicated throw line or the indicated touch unit;
• confirming whether a touch unit is touched by the dart game player;
• and
• when the touch unit is touched, starting to photograph, by at least some of a plurality of cameras, at least a part of the dart game player or at least a part of the dart target;
• and
• authenticating that the dart game is justly played when the touch unit is touched and based on the photographed image,
• wherein a moving image photographed by at least some of the plurality of cameras is for a predetermined time section including a time point at which a dart game motion is generated.

A non-transitory computer readable recording medium for authenticating, by one or more computers, whether a dart game player justly participates in a dart game in a dart game apparatus, in which a remote multi-mode is available, the computer readable recording medium comprising:

• a computer program code configured to cause at least one computer to confirm whether a touch unit is touched by the dart game player;
• the computer program code configured to cause at least one computer to photograph at least a part of the dart game player or at least a part of the dart target through at least some of a plurality of cameras when the touch unit is touched;
• and
• the computer program code configured to cause at least one computer to authenticate that the dart game is justly played when the touch unit is touched and based on the photographed image,
• wherein a moving image photographed by at least some of the plurality of cameras is for a predetermined time section including a time point at which a dart game motion is generated.
