Abstract

A flying battle game system using multirotor-type flying robots, and a flying battle game method using thereof are disclosed. In some embodiments, under the system, each multirotor-type flying robot runs an offline flying battle game, and the robot contains a body in which a battery is equipped; a propulsion unit that comprises a plurality of propellants that receive power supply to move from the battery; an infrared (IR) transmitting/receiving unit at the body that transmits and receives IR signals; an illumination unit at the body that flickers in different patterns according to the robot'"'"'s flying motion; and a control unit at the body that receives control signals from a wireless manipulator and then controls the IR transmitting/receiving unit, the illumination unit and movements of the propellants, wherein the propulsion unit lets the multirotor-type flying robot have flying motions of perpendicular ascent and drop by rotary propellers'"'"' motion according to a rotation of a motor that works by power supply from the battery.

Claims

1. A flying battle game system using multirotor-type flying robots, the system wherein each multirotor-type flying robot runs a flying battle game, and the robot comprises:

a body in which a battery is equipped;

a propulsion unit that comprises a plurality of propellants that receive power supply to move from the battery;

an infrared (IR) transmitting/receiving unit that transmits and receives IR signals;

an illumination unit that flickers in different patterns according to the robot'"'"'s flying motion; and

a control unit that receives control signals from a wireless manipulator and then controls the IR transmitting/receiving unit, the illumination unit or movements of the propellants,

wherein the propulsion unit lets the multirotor-type flying robot have flying motions by rotary propellers'"'"' motion according to a rotation of a motor that works by power supply from the battery.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein the system further comprises a web server that provides actual battle items and firmware into a wireless manipulator or user personal computer (PC),

wherein the multirotor-type flying robot applies the actual battle items and runs the flying battle game.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein the IR transmitting/receiving unit comprises:

an IR transmitting unit which transmits the IR signals that have a predetermined first radius; and

an IR receiving unit, which receivers the IR signals that have a predetermined second radius,

wherein the IR transmitting unit and the IR receiving are opposingly disposed on the body.

4. The system of claim 1, wherein the illumination unit comprises a plurality of light-emitting diodes, and is displayed as different flickering patterns to a user according to game operational conditions of the multirotor-type flying robots,

wherein the game operational conditions is divided into a game preparing condition, an attack-in-progress condition and an attacked condition, and in the attack-in-progress condition, the illumination unit flickers from the multirotor-type flying robot'"'"'s rear to its front in consecutive order.

5. The system of claim 1,

wherein the body receives the actual battle items and the firmware from the user PC or wireless manipulator, and it contains data transmitting/receiving unit that transmits processed data of the control unit to the wireless manipulator.

6. The system of claim 1, wherein the wireless manipulator is either a radio control or a smart device, and the radio control is an electronic device equipped with a joystick or a joypad and the smart device is either a smartphone or a tablet PC.

7. A flying battle game system using multirotor-type flying robots, the system comprising:

a configuration step S110, where actual battle items and firmware provided by a web server are provided from a user PC and stored in a storage medium, the storage medium is bound with the multirotor-type flying robots, and various battle modes (1;

1, 2;

2 or one-to-many, etc.), and after that, operation difficulty and control modes are configured through a radio control;

a flying battle step S120, where, after the step S110, a flying battle is performed according to predetermined battle rules; and

a result displaying step S130, where the result of the step S120 is displayed through a display and a vibration motor equipped with the radio control to visually and tactually display the result to a user.

9. The method of claim 7,

wherein the step S120 further contains a step where, during a flying battle, the actual battle items are used by a fixed combination of control buttons at the wireless manipulator.

8. A flying battle game method using multirotor-type flying robots, the method comprising:

a configuration step S110, where a smart device receives actual battle items and firmware provided by a web server, and after that, they are delivered to a multirotor-type flying robots, and battle modes (1;

1, 2;

2 or one-to-many, etc.), operation difficulty and control modes are configured through a screen of the smart device;

a flying battle step S120, where a flying battle is performed according to predetermined battle rules; and

a result displaying step S130, where the result of the step S120 is displayed on a screen of the smart device.

10. The method of claim 8,

wherein the step S120 further contains a step where, during a flying battle, the actual battle items are used by a fixed combination of control buttons at the wireless manipulator.
