Abstract
Disclosed is a method of providing a dart game image performed by a dart game device participating in a play session which imposes a play time constraint to two or more devices. The method may include: displaying, on a display unit, a first object displaying first information related to a first device among two or more devices participating in the play session and a second object displaying second information related to a second device; receiving play-related data of devices participating in the play session; and determining, based on the received play-related data, whether to change a relative position of the first object and the second object.
Claims13
A method of providing a dart game image performed by a dart game device participating in a play session which imposes a play time constraint to two or more devices, the method comprising:
- displaying, on a display unit, a first object displaying first information related to a first device among two or more devices participating in the play session and a second object displaying second information related to a second device;
- receiving, via a network communication unit, play-related data of the first and second devices participating in the play session from the first and second devices or a dart game server in real-time;
- and
- determining, based on the received play-related data, whether to change a relative position of the first object and the second object by:
- determining, based on the received play-related data from the first and second devices or the dart game server, first proximity between play-related data related to the first object and play-related data of the first dart game device, and second proximity between play-related data related to the second object and the play-related data of the second dart game device, wherein each proximity indicates how close a ranking of a player associated with the respective object is to a ranking of a player of the other dart game device;
- comparing the first proximity and the second proximity to determine whether there is a change in a superiority/inferiority relationship between the first proximity and the second proximity;
- and
- changing the relative positions of the first object and the second object when it is determined that there is a change in the superiority/inferiority relationship by performing a spinning operation in which the relative positions of the first object and the second object are repeatedly exchanged a predetermined number of times, by moving the relative positions of the first object and the second object the predetermined number of times;
- generating revised first information that includes an image related to a play of a player of the first device or an image generated based on dart game play result information of the first device, and
- generating revised second information that includes an image related to a play of a player of the second device or an image generated based on dart game play result information of the second device.

A dart game device, comprising:
- a display unit for displaying, among two or more devices participating in a play session which imposes a play time constraint to two or more devices, a first object displaying first information related to a first device and a second object displaying second information related to a second device;
- a network communication unit for receiving play-related data of the first and second devices participating in the play session from the first and second devices or a dart game server in real time;
- and
- a control unit for determining, based on the received play-related data from the first and second devices or the dart game server, whether to change a relative position of the first object and the second object by:
- determining, based on the received play-related data, first proximity between play-related data related to the first object and play-related data of the first dart game device, and second proximity between play-related data related to the second object and the play-related data of the second dart game device, wherein each proximity indicates how close a ranking of a player associated with the respective object is to a ranking of a player of the dart game device;
- comparing the first proximity and the second proximity to determine whether there is a change in a superiority/inferiority relationship between the first proximity and the second proximity;
- and
- changing the relative positions of the first object and the second object when it is determined that there is a change in the superiority/inferiority relationship by performing a spinning operation in which the relative positions of the first object and the second object are repeatedly exchanged a predetermined number of times, by moving the relative positions of the first object and the second object the predetermined number of times;
- generating revised first information that includes an image related to a play of a player of the first device or an image generated based on dart game play result information of the first device, and
- generating revised second information that includes an image related to a play of a player of the second device or an image generated based on dart game play result information of the second device.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium including a computer program, the computer program performing following operations for providing a dart game when being executed in one or more control units, the operations comprising:
- an operation of displaying, among two or more devices participating in a play session which imposes a play time constraint to two or more devices, a first object displaying first information related to a first device and a second object displaying second information related to a second device;
- an operation of receiving, via a network communication unit, play-related data of devices participating in the play session from the first and second devices or a dart game server in real-time;
- and
- an operation of determining, based on the received play-related data from the first and second devices or the dart game server, whether to change a relative position of the first object and the second object by:
- determining, based on the received play-related data, first proximity between play-related data related to the first object and play-related data of the first dart game device, and second proximity between play-related data related to the second object and the play-related data of the second dart game device, wherein each proximity indicates how close a ranking of a player associated with the respective object is to a ranking of a player of the dart game device;
- comparing the first proximity and the second proximity to determine whether there is a change in a superiority/inferiority relationship between the first proximity and the second proximity;
- and
- changing the relative positions of the first object and the second object when it is determined that there is a change in the superiority/inferiority relationship by performing a spinning operation in which the relative positions of the first object and the second object are repeatedly exchanged a predetermined number of times, by moving the relative positions of the first object and the second object the predetermined number of times;
- generating revised first information that includes an image related to a play of a player of the first device or an image generated based on dart game play result information of the first device, and
- generating revised second information that includes an image related to a play of a player of the second device or an image generated based on dart game play result information of the second device.
