Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of billiards technology, specifically to an intelligent device for measuring the separation angle of a billiard ball, and particularly to the fields of sensor technology, wireless communication technology, and data analysis and processing technology. Background Technology
[0002] Billiards is a popular sport that includes various forms such as snooker, Chinese eight-ball, and nine-ball.
[0003] Calculating the separation angle in billiards is an important skill for improving competitive level. This includes calculating the separation angle after the cue ball collides with the object ball, and the separation angle after the cue ball or object ball collides with the cushion of the table. For billiards enthusiasts, traditional methods of measuring the separation angle mainly rely on manual observation or simple mechanical devices. These methods have low measurement accuracy, large errors, and cannot obtain data in real time. If traditional measuring tools are used for calculation, the efficiency is very low, which affects the learning efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to research an intelligent device that can measure the separation angle in real time. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide an intelligent device that can measure the separation angle of a billiard ball in real time, providing users with reference data to help with training and improve their competitive level in billiards.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: an intelligent device for measuring the separation angle of a billiard ball, including: a main controller chip with wireless transmission function, an inertial measurement unit (IMU), a power management module, a monitoring position one (a1) where the device is connected to the bottom of the cue handle via a connector, or a monitoring position two (a2) where the device is embedded inside the cue handle, and the angle change of the corresponding separation angle is measured by moving the cue in a certain direction;
[0006] The main controller chip with wireless transmission function is used to analyze the data collected by the inertial measurement unit (IMU) and transmit the analyzed data to the mobile terminal for display via a wireless transmission medium.
[0007] The inertial measurement unit (IMU) is used to collect the attitude changes of the cue stick;
[0008] The power management module is used to supply power to the system;
[0009] The device is used to measure changes in the attitude of the golf club via a monitoring position one (a1) connected to the bottom of the club grip through a connector, or by embedding the device inside the club grip at a monitoring position two (a2).
[0010] The method of measuring the change in the corresponding separation angle by moving the cue stick is to use the cue stick as a reference line and calculate and analyze the change in the corresponding separation angle by changing the posture of the cue stick.
[0011] Furthermore, the main controller chip with wireless transmission function, combined with the inertial measurement unit (IMU), controls the device to perform corresponding functions, internally records and analyzes the current attitude changes of the cue stick in real time, analyzes and calculates the angle changes of the separation angle through internal algorithms, and transmits the analyzed angle data information to the mobile terminal for display via Bluetooth.
[0012] Furthermore, the inertial measurement unit (IMU) can collect and analyze acceleration and gyroscope data, and transmit the data to the main controller. Combined with the internal algorithm, it calculates the attitude change of the cue stick, thereby determining the change in the separation angle.
[0013] Furthermore, the power management module uses a battery power management chip and a battery protection chip for charge and discharge management and to provide power to the system.
[0014] Furthermore, the monitoring position (a1) where the device is connected to the bottom of the cue handle via a connector is a fixed monitoring point that uses the cue as a reference line to measure the angle value of the separation angle. This monitoring position connects the device to the bottom of the cue handle via a connector, and as the cue moves, the change in the corresponding angle can be measured.
[0015] Furthermore, the second monitoring position (a2), in which the device is embedded inside the cue handle, is a fixed monitoring point that uses the cue as a reference line to measure the angle value of the separation angle. The device is embedded inside the cue handle at this monitoring position, and the change of the corresponding angle can be measured as the cue moves.
[0016] Furthermore, the method of measuring the change in the corresponding separation angle by moving the cue stick is to use the cue stick as a reference line, with the device fixed on the cue stick, and the change in the corresponding separation angle is calculated by calculating the direction of movement of the cue stick.
[0017] The significant advantages of this invention are: the intelligent device can track and analyze the changes in the cue stick in real time, calculate the corresponding changes in the separation angle, and transmit the analyzed and calculated angle data to a mobile terminal for display via Bluetooth. It is convenient to use, provides intuitive data, and can significantly improve training efficiency to enhance the user's competitive level. Attached Figure Description
