The function button 5 is arranged under the silicone kit 7, and the silicone kit 7 can well protect the function button 5. In the game, the player presses the silicone kit 7 downward, which is equivalent to triggering the function button 5. The function button 5 plays different roles in different game modes, such as rolling dice, answering questions, etc.
[0047] In this embodiment, an electrostatic sticker can be affixed to the upper surface of the silicone kit 7. The electrostatic sticker can be designed into various patterns of suitable sizes, such as people, animals, etc., so that game characters can be better distinguished during the game, and can be torn off and recycled after the game is over.
[0048] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, both ends of the pen cap 8 are provided with fixing parts 107 extending inwardly, and the main board 1 is located between the battery holder 3 and the fixing parts. The fixing parts 107 protect the main board 1 from tilting.
[0049] When in use, the player presses the power button 12 to start the device, and after setting the game mode on the host, the game starts. Before the game starts, an electrostatic sticker is attached to the silicone kit 7 of each sub-machine. The electrostatic sticker can be designed into patterns of different people and animals. During the game, each player selects different patterns to be attached to the silicone kit 7 to facilitate character distinction; during the game, the player can press down the silicone kit 7 to achieve the effect of pressing the function button 5, which can play the role of shaking the dice and answering questions according to different game modes; a camera 9 is set inside the fuselage, and the camera 9 can shoot the picture in front, such as identifying the invisible QR code on the board game map, and then identifying the position of the current board game sub-machine in the matching board game map, and sending the current position information to the host via Bluetooth or 2.4G radio frequency signal, and the host further gives prompts according to the correctness of this step.
[0050] Among them, the camera is preferably a macro camera to facilitate the recognition of invisible QR codes at a closer distance.
[0051] The above-mentioned embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by technicians in this field on the basis of the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
