Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to resolve a problem of prior art technology, and to provide a hybrid golf system and method for automatic scoring using user's mobile terminal in the same, which enable a score to be automatically calculated according to a play on a virtual golf course using a screen golf system in a hybrid golf system, and enable a score to be automatically calculated using a mobile terminal possessed by each user when playing on an actual field successively, and, thereby, enable a score according to an entire golf play to be automatically calculated.
Claims8
A method for automatic scoring using a user's mobile terminal in a hybrid golf system comprising a field configured to allow a plurality of users to play real golf therein and a screen golf module provided on one side of the field, the screen golf module configured to allow the users to play golf on a virtual golf course therein, the automatic score calculation method comprising:
- calculating the number of virtual golf shots of each user based on golf play on the virtual golf course by a simulator in the screen golf module;
- initiating field play on the field subsequent to the golf play on the virtual golf course and transmitting information about the golf play from the simulator to a mobile terminal carried by each of the plurality of users;
- detecting a shot of each user from motion data of each user detected by a motion sensor mounted in the mobile terminal carried by each user;
- and
- calculating a score of each user by summing the number of virtual golf shots of each user and the number of shots of each user detected by the motion data.
A hybrid golf system comprising:
- a screen golf module provided on one side of a field configured to allow a plurality of users to play real golf therein, the screen golf module configured to allow the users to play golf on a virtual golf course therein;
- a simulator provided in the screen golf module, the simulator being configured to implement a virtual golf simulation image of the virtual golf course and golf play of each of the plurality of users;
- and
- a controller configured to calculate the number of virtual golf shots of each user based on the golf play on the virtual golf course in the screen golf module, to detect shots of each user by analyzing motion data of each user detected by a motion sensor mounted in a mobile terminal carried by each user as the golf play is performed, and to calculate a score of each user by summing the number of virtual golf shots and the detected number of shots of each user.
