1. In a drone soccer system using a player counter, The above-mentioned counter for players (630) is, Body (631); An input module (632) equipped with a function for inputting a count value to count the goals of the drone ball (100); An output module (633) composed of a vibration output module (633-1), a sound output module (633-2), and a visual output module (633-3), and equipped with a function to output events; A communication module (634) equipped with a function to transmit the above coefficient value and a function to receive events; A control module (639) that distinguishes whether a player is disabled or non-disabled and, if disabled, what type of disability, and controls the on/off of each output mode using the information of the distinguished player, and It includes a mounting member (635) that is fixed to the stadium frame (200) as a detachable type, and The above input module and vibration output module are formed as a single unit in the body, and The above sound output module and visual output module are formed integrally on the mounting member, and The above communication module includes a wired communication path connecting a vibration output module and an input module by wire, a first wireless communication path connecting a relay device wirelessly, and a second wireless communication path connecting a sound output module and a visual output module wirelessly, thereby providing voluntary refereeing by type of player using the above player counter, and The above communication module receives coaching information of a coach terminal (800) through relaying of a relay device, and The above sound output module outputs coaching information in addition to events, and if an event occurs while coaching information is being output, it mutes the output of coaching information only during the period when the event occurred. The above relay device is, A detection device (500) composed of a first-person view camera formed on the drone ball and a third-person view camera formed on the frame of the stadium; A controller (490) that generates relay information including scores and foul status based on the time when the above coefficient value is input and the detection value set in the detection device, and It includes a communication device (410) that transmits relay information to a coach terminal, further including relay videos of the first-person and third-person viewpoints mentioned above, and The above-described coach terminal divides the touch screen into set relay areas to display relay videos in first-person and third-person viewpoints, and a coaching input area for inputting coaching information is formed at a set location on the touch screen. A drone soccer system using a counter for players, characterized in that the above-mentioned coaching input area is an area that provides input of coaching information by organization and input of coaching information by player.

Description

Drone Soccer System Using a Counter for Athlets The present invention relates to a drone soccer system using a counter for players, and more specifically, to a drone soccer system that provides voluntary referees for each player type using a counter for players. Drone soccer is a new concept sport in which a drone encased in protective gear is used as a ball to score goals like soccer. It is commonly defined as soccer using a drone ball, a compound word of "drone" and "ball" from 2016. Drone soccer is a sport that can be participated in by everyone without restrictions, regardless of gender, age, or disability, including adults, children, and people with disabilities. For details regarding the rules and game methods of drone soccer, reference will be made to patent and non-patent literature. Recently, the popularity of drone soccer has risen, leading to a rapid increase in the number of teams. Although various attempts are being made to enhance training, entertainment, and immersive elements, there are still issues regarding the lack of technical means for the development of the drone soccer industry, as outlined below. On the Mobility of Drone Soccer Drone soccer is played in official matches in sets of three, each lasting three minutes. In drone soccer, collisions between drone balls occur at speeds exceeding 60 km/h, and the impact sounds from these collisions are extremely loud, making it a sport that heightens the immersion of the match. Players equip a droneball with a battery for driving and carry spare batteries for each set. A fully charged droneball provides sufficient power at the beginning of the match, offering excellent maneuverability; however, maneuverability may decrease in the latter half as the battery becomes nearly discharged. In other words, conventionally, the reduced maneuverability of the droneball in the later stages of the game leads to a decrease in players' engagement; therefore, a solution is needed to overcome this decline in maneuverability even in the later stages. <About Drone Soccer for Training> In official matches, drone soccer is played by dividing into two teams, with each team consisting of five or fewer players and five or fewer drone balls; goalposts are fixed at designated locations on the field, and the game is conducted under the mediation of an accredited referee. Traditionally, each affiliated team possessed an official match arena for player training, where individual or team training was conducted. Since there were no certified referees present during training, players or spectators participated to act as referees. However, as described below, various problems occurred during training in the past, leading to a decrease in training efficiency. Conventionally, since there are no counters for counting scores for players or spectators, there is a problem where training matches are delayed for score counting, and the efficiency of training is reduced due to the delay. Traditionally, some players may be unable to attend training due to specific reasons, and there may be cases where 5-on-5 training between the home and away teams is not possible. In other words, technical means are required to conduct training matches even when the number of players is mismatched or when players are not present at the match venue. <About Drone Soccer for Fun and Realism> Traditionally, tools such as HMDs can be used to enhance the enjoyment and immersive elements of sports or games, but the reality is that it is difficult for individual players to purchase expensive HMD equipment. Furthermore, while drone soccer training has traditionally been conducted according to fixed official rules, this can be inefficient for younger generations due to the low level of entertainment value. In other words, there is a need for technological means to increase both the fun and immersive aspects of the sport.
