Abstract
One example relates to a method for providing an immersive virtual golf service using an eXtended Reality (XR). The method may comprise: capturing an image of an actual golf ball placed on a ground through a camera of an XR device; reproducing and displaying the image within a virtual golf environment displayed on a display unit of the XR device; capturing, in real-time, a golf swing of a user through the camera of the XR device; analyzing a golf swing motion of the user in real-time using an artificial neural network model; and reproducing and displaying the analyzed golf swing motion within the virtual golf environment displayed on the display unit of the XR device.
Claims16
A method for providing an immersive virtual golf service using an eXtended Reality (XR), the method comprising:
- capturing an image of an actual golf ball placed on a ground through a first plurality of cameras which are arranged to face forward of the XR device and a second plurality of cameras which are arranged to face downward of the XR device;
- reproducing and displaying the image within a virtual golf environment displayed on a display unit of the XR device;
- capturing, in real-time, a golf swing of a user through the first plurality of cameras and the second plurality of cameras;
- analyzing a golf swing motion of the user in real-time using an artificial neural network model;
- and
- reproducing and displaying the analyzed golf swing motion within the virtual golf environment displayed on the display unit of the XR device.
An eXtended Reality (XR) device comprising:
- a first plurality of cameras which are arranged to face forward;
- a second plurality of cameras which are arranged to face downward;
- a display unit;
- and
- a controller configured to control the camera and display and perform steps of:
- capturing an image of an actual golf ball placed on a ground through the first plurality of cameras and the second plurality of cameras,
- reproducing and displaying the image within a virtual golf environment displayed on the display unit,
- capturing, in real-time, a golf swing of a user through the first plurality of cameras and the second plurality of cameras,
- analyzing a golf swing motion of the user in real-time using an artificial neural network model, and
- reproducing and displaying the analyzed golf swing motion within the virtual golf environment displayed on the display unit.
A non-volatile computer-readable storage medium storing instructions, the instructions, when executed by one or more processors, causing the one or more processors to perform steps comprising:
- capturing an image of an actual golf ball placed on a ground through a camera of an eXtended Reality (XR) device,
- wherein the camera of the XR device includes a first plurality of cameras which are arranged to face forward and a second plurality of cameras which are arranged to face downward;
- reproducing and displaying the image within a virtual golf environment displayed on a display unit of the XR device;
- capturing, in real-time, a golf swing of a user through the first plurality of cameras and the second plurality of cameras;
- analyzing a golf swing motion of the user in real-time using an artificial neural network model;
- and
- reproducing and displaying the analyzed golf swing motion within the virtual golf environment displayed on the display unit of the XR device.
