Simulation system for golf practice
First Claim
1. A golf simulation system comprising:
- a flying trace sensing means for sensing a golf ball struck in a striking zone provided in a side of golf practice ranger, a projection screen installed to face said striking zone, a projector for projecting three-dimensional images of golf course onto said projection screen, and a control section for outputting image signals, which proceed with the three-dimensional images of golf course in accordance with the flying trace sensed by said flying trace sensing means, into said projector, wherein a setting plate for locating a golf ball is provided in said striking zone and a setting plate adjusting means is provided below said setting plate for adjusting the height and inclined angle of setting plate, and wherein said control section calculates the moved distance and stoppage position of golf ball based on the flying trace of golf ball sensed by said flying trace sensing means, and inputs signals reflecting the three-dimensional images of the golf course along the flying trace into said projector, so that the three-dimensional images of the golf course along the flying trace can be displayed on said projection screen, and said control section controls said setting plate adjusting means in accordance with the height and inclined angle of said stoppage position, so that said setting plate can be automatically adjusted to the height and inclined angle equal to those of said stoppage position.

Abstract
In a golf simulation system, a setting plate for locating a golf ball is provided in a striking zone, and a setting plate adjusting means is provided below the setting plate. A control section calculates moved distance and stoppage position of golf ball based on the flying trace of golf ball sensed by the flying trace sensing means, and inputs signals reflecting the three-dimensional images of the golf course along the flying trace into the projector, so that the three-dimensional images are displayed on the projection screen. Also, the control section controls the setting plate adjusting means in accordance with the height and inclined angle of the stoppage position, so that the setting plate can be automatically adjusted to the height and inclined angle equal to those of the stoppage position. Therefore, a golfer can exercise golf in various inclined angles and topographical conditions like a real golf course.
