  • Patent number: 9448067
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for photographing a moving subject by means of multiple cameras, and acquiring the actual movement trajectory of the subject on the basis of the photographed image. One embodiment of the present invention provides a method for acquiring the movement trajectory of a subject, the method comprising: a step for photographing a moving subject by means of multiple cameras; a step for collecting, from each of the cameras, information on multiple images of the subject and the positions of the images on the relevant camera image frames; and a step for acquiring the movement trajectory of the subject on the basis of the information collected.

  • Patent number: 9329037
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for photographing a moving subject by means of a fixed camera, and acquiring a projection image of the actual movement trajectory of the subject on the basis of the photographed image. One embodiment of the present invention provides a method for acquiring a projection image of the actual movement trajectory of a subject, the method comprising: a step for photographing a moving subject by means of a fixed camera; and a step for converting the coordinates of the photographed image of the subject on the camera image frame to coordinates of the image on an actual background portion, the conversion being implemented on the basis of information on mapping between coordinates on an actual background portion having a specific pattern, acquired by pre-photographing, with a fixed camera, the specific pattern of the actual background portion, and the coordinates on the camera image frame of the photographed image thereof.

  • Patent number: 9289669
    Abstract: A method for measuring a physical quantity of an object by using a single light source and a planar sensor unit, and a virtual golf system using the same are provided. According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for measuring a physical quantity of an object by using a single light source and a planar sensor unit, the method comprising: detecting, by the planar sensor unit, a shadow of the object generated by light emitted from the single light source, wherein the planar sensor unit is disposed on a bottom surface opposed to the single light source; and measuring a physical quantity of the object based on information regarding the shadow.

  • Publication number: 20140235304
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a virtual sport system for acquiring a good image of a ball by controlling a camera according to the surrounding brightness. One embodiment of the present invention provides a virtual sport system which comprises a photographing unit, having a camera for acquiring an image of a ball, and a simulator, for calculating the physical quantity of the ball on the basis of the image of the ball; and which further comprises a control unit that extracts image information from at least one image acquired by the photographing unit by means of the camera, and determining, on the basis of the image information, a control signal for adjusting the image gain or the exposure time of the camera.

  • Publication number: 20140228085
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a virtual sport system using a start sensor. One embodiment of the present invention provides a virtual sport system comprising: a hitting section from which a ball is hit; a start sensor unit which determines the physical quantity of the ball at the stage when the ball starts moving; and a simulation unit which receives, from the start sensor unit, information on the physical quantity, and simulates the motion of the ball on the basis of the information received.
