The processor 110 uses the geomagnetism value measured by the compass sensor 125 as data for determining such matters as the impact of the sweet spot hit and the change of the swing trajectory during impact. Specifically, the processor 110 detects a change in height, position, and direction of the golf club by comparing the geomagnetic values at the time of alignment with the geomagnetism at the time of swing and impact, and uses the hit position with the value of the gyro sensor 122. Can be calculated.

The temperature sensor 126 measures the temperature around the golf club 10 and transmits it to the processor 110. The processor 110 calculates the air density, the golf club and the elastic change of the ball by using the stored data and algorithm using the temperature information, and applies it to the swing analysis. Through this, the processing unit 110 more accurately calculates the actual pitch values of various balls such as ball distance, ballistics, pull, push, draw, and slice.

The power supply unit 130 supplies power for the operation of the main body 100. The power supply unit 130 may be configured by using a rechargeable battery that can be charged or discharged or a replaceable battery, and may be any means as long as it is a power source capable of supplying light and stable power.

3 to 5 are exemplary diagrams for explaining the use example of the swing analysis according to the present invention. Figure 3 is an exemplary view showing an example immediately after the impact of the golf club and golf ball, Figure 4 is an exemplary view showing an example of analyzing the hit by the golf club at the time of impact.

3 to 5, the golf swing training aid according to the present invention automatically recognizes the aiming, ballistic analysis such as ball trajectory analysis, flying distance, accuracy by analyzing the trajectory of the swing that proceeds after the aiming By performing the swing analysis such as the trajectory and the speed of the swing and the swing, it acquires, analyzes and provides various information necessary for the progress and practice of golf in practice and actual game.

To this end, when a blow is made as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the main body 100 of the golf swing training aid measures various indicators of the swing using sensors provided therein, and as shown in FIG. 4. The analysis value is calculated. For example, when hitting is performed as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the main body 100 detects whether the head 16 of the golf club 10 and the opening or closing of the head 16 are opened, closed, or hit in the forward direction according to the swing. In addition, the power is calculated at the time of swing to calculate information such as distance, direction, head angle, and the like is provided to the user through the display unit 140 or the communication unit 160, or stored in the storage unit 150.

This swing analysis can be started by aiming. In the case of using the golf swing practice aid of the present invention, the aiming motion to start the analysis of the main body 100, and also serves to inform the target direction so that the main body 100 can analyze the swing and trajectory do. That is, when the user performs a predetermined series of operations and the main body 100 detects this, the main body 100 determines that the aming has been made, and recognizes the direction specified by the aming as the target direction.

In addition, when the user aligns for hitting or hitting by a real swing, the accuracy of trajectory, flying distance, and alignment are analyzed based on the target direction.

This aming operation may be performed in the same manner as in a real game even during practice. In practice, however, once the target direction is determined by aming, if the swing and hitting is repeatedly performed, the swing analysis is performed according to the initially set target direction. This aming operation can be made to recognize the main body 100 through a specific arrangement of the golf club even without a separate operation reflecting the habits of the user or the habits of the general golfers. Specifically, the user lifts the golf club toward the target direction at a constant height for several seconds, or adjusts the golf club on the floor and lifts it again, or maintains the golf club for a certain time horizontally with the ground to be in line with the target direction. If you do, you can determine that you are aiming. The motion recognition of the aiming may be recognized by a sensor such as a gyro sensor or a compass sensor configured in the sensor unit 120.

In addition, when the main body 100 performs an operation that meets such an aiming condition, the main body 100 turns on a specific color of the external LED, or tells the user that the aming is made through the display screen, the speaker, and the vibration configured by the display unit 140. Notify me. If it is determined that the user is amied again or not recognized as a miming motion similar to the aiming, the aiming operation is performed again to perform the aiming and can proceed to the game or practice through this.

When the aim is made and swings and strikes as described above, the main body 100 detects various indices, such as head speed, pitch (slice, hook, push, and pull). Swing analysis such as the occurrence and direction of impact, impact position, head open / close, ball trajectory, distance, ball rotation speed, total trajectory of golf club and acceleration by section (backswing, impact, follow-throw) Done.

5 is an exemplary diagram illustrating an example of a swing analysis.

The main body 100 detects an indicator in a state in which the golf club is aligned for hitting or swinging after the aming, for example, the direction in which the golf club is directed through the gyro sensor 122 or the compass sensor 125. . When the swing starts, the acceleration generated by the golf club by the acceleration sensor 124 in addition to the gyro sensor and the compass sensor 125 is measured. When the impact is made, the shock is sensed by the shock sensor 123. The processor 110 receives the sensed data of the sensor unit 120 from the sensors and performs the swing analysis as described above. In particular, in this process, the temperature value measured by the temperature sensor 126 included in the sensor unit 120 is applied to the swing analysis, and the matters such as the change in the elasticity of the golf club and the distance of flight by the air density are applied to the swing analysis. It is calculated by analyzing important factors such as accurate flight distance, trajectory, power and torque.

In detail, as shown in FIG. 5, the RBI of the head may be calculated at impact using the sensed value of the sensor unit 120. 5 is an exemplary view for explaining that the spot of the ball, such as a top ball, a sweet spot, and an under, can be detected at any point perpendicular to the ground. In general, when the ball hits the center or slightly below the center of the head 16, the golf ball will fly at the optimum trajectory. However, in order to hit the sweet spot, the swing must be stabilized, and the user must recognize how his swing changes during alignment and actual impact, so that it can be corrected.

In the present invention, the gyro sensor 122 of the main body 100, in particular, the compass sensor 125 is composed of the compass sensor 125 by measuring the displacement value at the time of alignment and the displacement at impact again to determine the vertical position of the other point You can check it. In addition, the ball, appropriate trajectory, low trajectory can be expected according to the RBI, through which the processing unit 110 can perform the analysis of the flying distance by calculating the increment of the flying distance. In addition, when additionally using the measured values of the gyro sensor 122 and the impact sensor 123, it is possible to determine whether the hit is made or tilted in the state that the head is perpendicular to the ground.

Through this, the golf swing practice aid according to the present invention can be used to correct the posture by checking the points such as the distance, pitch, RBI, and trajectory of the ball, as in the actual game, and in the actual game, Problems such as ballistics can be identified and applied to the game.

In particular, the auxiliary device of the present invention has an advantage that can be easily used even when the user changes the golf club because it is not embedded in the golf club.

6 to 9 are exemplary views illustrating a process of measuring various elements in an actual game using a golf club equipped with an auxiliary device, and FIG. 6 is an example for explaining a method of measuring a distance from a current position to a target. 7 is an exemplary diagram for describing a method of measuring a linear inclination to a target, FIG. 8 is an exemplary diagram for describing a method for measuring a perpendicular slope of a ball path, and FIGS. 9 to 8 It is an exemplary diagram for demonstrating the aiming guide process which is performed by the value computed by.

6 to 9, the exercise aids of the present invention can be used by attaching and detaching the golf club as described above, it is possible to calculate and analyze the information related to the golf swing by a variety of sensors. In addition, the practice aids of the present invention can be used not only in the indoor practice range, but also in various environments, especially in actual games, and it is possible to provide more accurate and detailed information than the information provided to the golfer by the caddy. The provision of such information can be made by various sensors and data processing configured in the main body.

First, as shown in FIG. 6, it is possible to easily calculate the distance to the target and provide this distance information to the user. In detail, as described above, the sensor units 120 of the main body 100 collect various data according to the movement of the golf club and transmit the data to the processing unit 110. It performs the same processing as swing analysis. As shown in this aming process, the position of the ball 15 and the target, for example, the position of the hole H, are recognized and the distance B between the hole H and the ball 15 is calculated and calculated. Provided distance information to the user.

For example, the storage unit 150 of the main body 100 may previously record a sensing value corresponding to a specific position (or posture) of the golf club and distinguishing information of an operation performed by the user at the corresponding position. In other words, if the golf club 10 is maintained at a level with the ground for more than a predetermined time, such as Aiming, the sensing value and the corresponding sensing value for detecting the position and posture of the golf club at the time of alignment are recognized. Corresponding to the dimming, the processing unit 110 checks the operation according to the specific position of the golf club through this, so that the analysis can be made accordingly. In this way, if it is recognized that the golf club position and posture (A) at the alignment and the posture (C) indicating the target are generated repeatedly or continuously, it is possible to calculate the distance (B) between the alignment position and the target. In this case, the calculated distance information may be output to the user through the display unit 140. That is, when the user puts the golf club 10 on the field, it is recognized by the sensors of the sensor unit 120 to measure the inclination of the golf club heading direction, that is, the direction parallel to the shaft. A straight slope between the H and the ball 15 or the left and right slopes of the path of the ball can be measured. The inclination may be calculated by the data transmitted from the sensors 110 by the sensors, and output through the display 140 to be provided to the user.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 9, information for adjusting the alignment direction may be provided. Specifically, the processor 110 calculates the distance information, the straight slope or the left and right slopes to the target calculated through the above-described FIGS. 6 to 9, and stores the calculated information in the storage 150. The processor 110 may adjust the alignment direction or the aiming direction using this information. That is, the processor 110 calculates the direction in which the actual hit should be made, at which time the ball 15 should go, using the measured distance to the target and the inclination of the ground, and outputs the same through the display unit 140. . The output direction can be guided through the display unit 140 through symbols that are easy for the user to recognize, such as +,-,>, <, or by means such as a combination of symbolic numerals and voice. More specifically, when the user performs an operation for aiming, tilting, and measuring the distance for putting or a shot, the main body 100 recognizes this.
