Abstract
A hole location updating device and a method for operating a hole location updating device are provided. The hole location updating device having a housing including a flagpole combiner for providing a combination with a flagpole, includes: a global positioning system (GPS) circuit for detecting a GPS position of a hole; a mobile communication circuit for providing access to a server through a mobile communication network; and a control circuit operable in a power blocking mode, escaping from the power blocking mode in response to a wakeup signal to update a hole location, and entering the power blocking mode.
Claims20
A hole location updating device having a housing including a flagpole combiner for providing a combination with a flagpole, comprising:
- a global positioning system (GPS) circuit for detecting a GPS position of a hole;
- a mobile communication circuit for providing access to a server through a mobile communication network;
- a control circuit operable in a power blocking mode, escaping from the power blocking mode in response to a wakeup signal to update a hole location, and entering the power blocking mode;
- and
- an acceleration sensor measuring a distance the flagpole moves and an angle by which the flagpole stands,
- wherein the control circuit recognizes a signal generated from a button or a touch sensor provided in the housing as the wakeup signal, only when the angle measured by the acceleration sensor at which the flagpole stands in a vertical way, or the moving distance measured by the acceleration sensor is more than a predetermined distance.
A method for operating a hole location updating device having a housing including a flagpole combiner for providing a combination with a flagpole and an acceleration sensor measuring a distance the flagpole moves and an angle by which the flagpole stands, comprising:
- operating in a power blocking mode;
- receiving a wakeup signal by recognizing a signal generated from a button or a touch sensor provided in the housing as the wakeup signal, only when the angle measured by the acceleration sensor at which the flagpole stands in a vertical way, or the moving distance measured by the acceleration sensor is more than a predetermined distance;
- escaping from the power blocking mode in response to the wakeup signal and updating the hole location;
- and
- entering the power blocking mode.
