Benefits of technology

The invention is a system that can detect the location of an object in a layout and quickly update the layout if the object moves. This is useful for creating accurate and efficient layouts.

Problems solved by technology

However, actually, yardage books are not used for a larger number of golf country clubs.
In addition, even if a yardage book is used for a golf country club, the golfer does not feel free to use the yardage book because the yardage book is comparatively expensive.
This leads to the necessity for re-measurement and re-calculation of distances, which are time consuming in addition to club selection.

modification 1

[0078]In the exemplary embodiment, a yardage book for golf is taken as an example of layout data. In addition to this, the exemplary embodiment is also applicable to layout data regarding an office or the like.

[0079]FIGS. 14A and 14B illustrate an example of office layout data. Various desks and office equipment including the multifunctional printer 10 and a fax machine 80 are arranged. Suppose a case where the location of the fax machine 80 is changed for some reason. For example, the fax machine 80 is located at the upper right part of the office as illustrated in FIG. 14A and is moved to the lower right part as illustrated in FIG. 14B. The sensor 40 installed on the fax machine 80 transmits data regarding the location of the fax machine 80 to the multifunctional printer 10. The antenna 32 of the multifunctional printer 10 receives the location data from the sensor 40, and it is determined whether there is changed location information. If there is changed location information, the...

modification 2

[0083]In the exemplary embodiment, the tee location, the FW flag location, and the cup location are detected by the sensors 40 and transmitted to the multifunctional printer 10. If there is changed location data in at least one of these pieces of location data, the changed location data is transmitted to the cloud server 50, and the cloud server 50 generates the yardage book data. However, the golfer who is the user may operate the multifunctional printer 10 and select location data regarding one of a tee location, a FW flag location, and a cup location to be considered when the yardage book data is generated. Only if there is changed location data in the selected location data, the cloud server 50 may generate the yardage book data. For example, if the golfer selects cup location data, and only if there is changed cup location data, the cloud server 50 generates the yardage book data. The golfer who is the user may customize a yardage book data generation process.

modification 3

[0084]In the exemplary embodiment, the multifunctional printer 10 transmits the changed location data to the cloud server 50, and the cloud server 50 generates the yardage book data and provides the multifunctional printer 10 with the yardage book data. However, the multifunctional printer 10 may generate the yardage book data by using the changed location data. In this case, the function of the cloud server 50 is incorporated in the multifunctional printer 10, and the multifunctional printer 10 functions as the transmission unit and the generator. In addition, the multifunctional printer 10 may be regarded as a layout-image forming apparatus that prints and outputs a yardage book.

Abstract

A layout processing system includes a detector, a transmission unit, and a generator. The detector detects a location of an object included in a layout. The transmission unit transmits changed location information regarding a changed location of the object if location information regarding the location of the object is the changed location information. The generator receives the changed location information from the transmission unit, generates layout data including the changed location information, and provides a user with the layout data.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is based on and claims priority under 35 USC 119 from Japanese Patent Application No. 2017-098220 filed May 17, 2017.BACKGROUND(i) Technical Field[0002]The present invention relates to a layout processing system, a layout-image forming apparatus, and a non-transitory computer readable medium.(ii) Related Art[0003]A golfer aiming to improve his or her score ideally performs course management, looking at a yardage book with detail data. However, actually, yardage books are not used for a larger number of golf country clubs. In addition, even if a yardage book is used for a golf country club, the golfer does not feel free to use the yardage book because the yardage book is comparatively expensive. Moreover, even if a course strategy is plotted in advance by using the yardage book, the golfer finds locations of tees and pins only after entering a course. This leads to the necessity for re-measurement and re-calculation of dis...
