Provided is a method for synchronizing data between different types of devices for collecting and processing data with respect to a moving object, comprising: sampling first type data with respect to a motion of the object from one device; sampling second type data with respect to a motion of the object from another device having a larger sampling interval than the device; and generating data corresponding to a sampling time of the first type data by combining second type data respectively sampled before and after the sampling time of the first type data in a sampling interval of the second type data, to generate data synchronized with the sampling time of the first type data with respect to the second type data.

Method for synchronizing data collected from a camera device and a motion sensing device and data processing device generating the synchronized data

Disclosed are a sensing device and method used for a virtual golf simulation apparatus in which an image acquired by an inexpensive camera having a relatively low resolution and velocity is analyzed to relatively accurately extract information on physical properties, such as velocity, direction and altitude angle, of a moving ball, and, particularly, in which the moving trajectory of a golf club is relatively accurately calculated from the acquired image to relatively accurately estimate spin of the ball and to reflect the estimated spin of the ball in golf simulation, thereby constituting a virtual golf simulation apparatus having high accuracy and reliability at low costs and further improving reality of virtual golf.

Sensing device and method used for virtual golf simulation apparatus

Disclosed are a virtual golf simulation apparatus and method in which a golf ball hit by a user who swings at the golf ball is sensed by a sensing device, and the trajectory of the golf ball is simulated on a virtual golf course based on the sensed result so that the user can enjoy virtual golf on the virtual golf course, thereby providing the same sense of reality that the user would feel playing a round of golf on a real golf course.

Disclosed are a virtual golf simulation apparatus in which an image of a ball hit by a user using virtual golf simulation, who swings a golf club to hit the ball, is acquired, and the ball is found from the acquired image to calculate the moving trajectory of the ball, thereby realizing a simulation image of the trajectory of the ball, and, particularly, in which the two-dimensional trajectory of ball candidates, determined as a ball, in an image acquired by the camera is analyzed to accurately and rapidly extract the ball, thereby accurately and rapidly calculating information on physical properties of the moving ball even using a camera having a low resolution and velocity, and a sensing device and method used for the same.

Virtual golf simulation apparatus and sensing device and method used for the same

Disclosed are a virtual golf simulation apparatus in which any position of a hitting mat, on which a user places a ball, is recognized to easily and accurately find the position of the ball even when a slope is realized with respect to a swing plate and the swing plate is sloped at a predetermined angle, and it is possible to accurately sense when hitting has been performed by the user using a relatively inexpensive sensing device without an additional trigger sensor, thereby reducing costs and improving sensing accuracy and reliability, and a sensing device and method used for the same.
