Method And Apparatus For Providing Dart Game Using Artificial Intelligent Technology

A dart game device for providing a dart game, the dart game device comprising:

• a camera unit for obtaining, in response to a first throw of a first dart pin, a first image corresponding to a dart target including the first dart pin, and obtaining, in response to a second throw of a second dart pin, a second image corresponding to the dart target including the second dart pin, wherein the dart target includes a plurality of segments, and each segment includes a predetermined number of bits;
• and
• a control unit for generating first location information of the first dart pin corresponding to the first image and second location information of the second dart pin corresponding to the second image by using an artificial intelligence-based dart pin location identification network model, and generating a play result for the dart game including the first throw and the second throw by using the first location information and the second location information, wherein the first location information includes a bit location within a segment hit by the first dart pin, and the second location information includes a bit location within a segment hit by the second dart pin,
• wherein the play result for the dart game includes information indicating a player who wins by throwing any one of the first dart pin and the second dart pin to a location close to a specific location of the dart target among a plurality of players throwing the dart pins by comparing a first distance from the specific location of the dart target to a bit location within a segment hit by the first dart pin, and a second distance from the specific location of the dart target to a bit location within a segment hit by the second dart pin.

A computer program stored in a computer-readable storage medium, the computer program allowing at least one processor to perform operations for providing a dart game when being executed by the at least one processor, the operations comprising:

• an operation of obtaining, in response to a first throw of a first dart pin, a first image corresponding to a dart target including the first dart pin, wherein the dart target includes a plurality of segments, and each segment includes a predetermined number of bits;
• an operation of obtaining, in response to a second throw of a second dart pin, a second image corresponding to the dart target including the second dart pin;
• an operation of generating first location information of the first dart pin corresponding to the first image and second location information of the second dart pin corresponding to the second image by using an artificial intelligence-based dart pin location identification network model, wherein the first location information includes a bit location within a segment hit by the first dart pin, and the second location information includes a bit location within a segment hit by the second dart pin;
• and
• an operation of generating a play result for the dart game including the first throw and the second throw by using the first location information and the second location information,
• wherein the play result for the dart game includes information indicating a player who wins by throwing any one of the first dart pin and the second dart pin to a location close to a specific location of the dart target among a plurality of players throwing the dart pins by comparing a first distance from the specific location of the dart target to a bit location within a segment hit by the first dart pin, and a second distance from the specific location of the dart target to a bit location within a segment hit by the second dart pin.
