第14圖描繪一種當高爾夫球由高爾夫球員以高爾夫球桿擊打時在高爾夫球之壓電材料部份中產生輸出之方法1400的範例實施例。在第14圖中所示之步驟的順序是被範例而並非是必要的。在一第一步驟1402中，一高爾夫球員以高爾夫球桿擊打一包含壓電材料部份的高爾夫球。在一第二步驟1404中，該高爾夫球由於與高爾夫球桿之撞擊的力量而變形。在一第三步驟1406中，由撞擊之力量而引起的變形壓縮該高爾夫球內的壓電材料部份。在步驟1408中，壓電材料部份的壓縮產生供應高爾夫球之壓電材料部份能量的電荷。在步驟1410中，來自被供應有能量之壓電材料部份的輸出被測量。在某些實施例中，該輸出會是一 電壓。在其他實施例中，該輸出會是一電流。Figure 14 depicts an exemplary embodiment of a method 1400 of producing an output in a piezoelectric material portion of a golf ball when the golf ball is struck by a golfer. The order of the steps shown in Figure 14 is by way of example and not necessarily. In a first step 1402, a golfer hits a golf ball containing a portion of piezoelectric material with a golf club. In a second step 1404, the golf ball is deformed by the force of the impact with the golf club. In a third step 1406, the deformation caused by the force of the impact compresses the portion of the piezoelectric material within the golf ball. In step 1408, compression of the portion of piezoelectric material produces a charge that supplies a portion of the energy of the piezoelectric material of the golf ball. In step 1410, the output from the portion of piezoelectric material that is supplied with energy is measured. In some embodiments, the output will be one Voltage. In other embodiments, the output will be a current.
第15圖描繪一種從一在一包含壓電材料部份之高爾夫球內之內部感測器得到資料之方法1500的範例實施例。在第15圖中所示之步驟的順序是為範例而並非是必要的。於一第一步驟1502中，在該高爾夫球內部的內部感測器偵測一來自高爾夫球之壓電材料部份的輸出。該內部感測器可以包括使來自壓電材料部份之偵測輸出與擊打高爾夫球資料相關聯的電路。在某些情況中，該電路會包括一存取一包含在壓電材料之測量輸出與擊打高爾夫球資料之間之已知關聯性之資料庫的處理器。在其他情況中，該電路可以包括一把來自壓電材料部份之偵測輸出倍增一特定量來使該輸出與擊打高爾夫球資料相關聯的電路。能夠使一來自壓電材料之輸出與擊打高爾夫球資料相關聯之不同的電路可以被設置。擊打高爾夫球資料可以包括，但不限定為：變形量、變形角度、球速、後旋量、側旋量、總旋量、及其他與高爾夫球有關的參數。Figure 15 depicts an exemplary embodiment of a method 1500 for obtaining data from an internal sensor within a golf ball containing a portion of piezoelectric material. The order of the steps shown in Fig. 15 is for the sake of example and is not essential. In a first step 1502, an internal sensor inside the golf ball detects an output from a portion of the piezoelectric material of the golf ball. The internal sensor can include circuitry to correlate the detected output from the piezoelectric material portion with the hit golf ball material. In some cases, the circuit will include a processor that accesses a library of known correlations between the measured output of the piezoelectric material and the hit golf material. In other cases, the circuit can include a circuit that multiplies the detected output from the portion of piezoelectric material by a specific amount to associate the output with the hit golf material. A different circuit capable of correlating the output from the piezoelectric material with the hit golf material can be set. The hit golf ball data may include, but is not limited to, deformation amount, deformation angle, ball speed, back spin amount, side spin amount, total spin amount, and other golf ball related parameters.
在某些實施例中，在來自壓電材料之輸出與擊打高爾夫球資料之間的關聯性是可以完成。因為壓電材料產生與施加到壓電材料之撞擊力量之量成比例的電荷，擊打高爾夫球資料會從撞擊力量的知識與高爾夫球特性而成相關聯。在某些情況中，這關聯性能夠藉由使用一高爾夫球擺盪機器人擊打一已知結構的高爾夫球數次並且收集與該等擊打高爾夫球有關的測量資料來被產生。高爾夫球擺盪機器人是眾所周知的，而且任能夠依據一組程式規劃指令來 一貫地擺盪一高爾夫球桿的任何類型機器人是可以被使用。在某些實施例中，該結果可以包括一包含在壓電材料之測量輸出與擊打高爾夫球資料之間之已知關聯性的資料庫。在其他情況中，一處理器可以用來執行一能夠使壓電材料之測量輸出與擊打高爾夫球資料相關聯的程式。In some embodiments, the correlation between the output from the piezoelectric material and the hit golf ball data can be accomplished. Because the piezoelectric material produces a charge that is proportional to the amount of impact force applied to the piezoelectric material, hitting the golf ball data correlates knowledge of the impact force from the golf ball characteristics. In some cases, this correlation can be generated by hitting a golf ball of a known structure several times using a golf swinging robot and collecting measurement data related to the hitting golf balls. Golf swinging robots are well known and can be based on a set of programming instructions. Any type of robot that consistently swings a golf club can be used. In some embodiments, the result can include a library of known correlations between the measured output of the piezoelectric material and the hit golf material. In other cases, a processor can be used to execute a program that correlates the measured output of the piezoelectric material with the hit golf material.
在一範例實施例中，得到的擊打高爾夫球資料包括球速與旋轉速率。球速是為一高爾夫球在被高爾夫球桿之桿面撞擊之後之速度的測量。因為壓電材料的輸出是與桿頭與高爾夫球之撞擊的力量成比例，球速能夠根據在壓電材料中所偵測之電流的測量來被決定。高爾夫球的旋量是為高爾夫球在飛行時的轉動。旋量包括與飛行之方向相反的轉動，即，後旋量，和與旋量之方向側向的轉動，即，側旋量。總旋量是為後旋量與側旋量的向量相加。一高爾夫球的旋轉速率是為在飛行時高爾夫球以其之軸心為中心轉動的速度。典型地，該旋轉速率是以每分鐘轉數(rpm)的形式來測量。高爾夫球的旋量是與高爾夫球的變形量有關。高爾夫球的變形量能夠根據壓電材料在壓縮時之輸出之大小來被決定。根據變形量，旋轉速率能夠被決定。不同的擊打高爾夫球資料可以被取得，包括，但不限於：變形量、變形角度、球速、旋轉速率、後旋量、側旋量及其他與高爾夫球有關的參數。In an exemplary embodiment, the resulting hit golf ball data includes ball speed and spin rate. The ball speed is a measure of the speed of a golf ball after it has been struck by the face of the golf club. Since the output of the piezoelectric material is proportional to the force of the impact of the head and the golf ball, the ball speed can be determined based on the measurement of the current detected in the piezoelectric material. The spin of the golf ball is the rotation of the golf ball while flying. The rotation includes a rotation opposite to the direction of flight, that is, a back rotation amount, and a lateral rotation with respect to the direction of the rotation amount, that is, a side rotation amount. The total spin is the sum of the vector of the back spin and the side spin. The rate of rotation of a golf ball is the speed at which the golf ball rotates about its axis during flight. Typically, this rate of rotation is measured in revolutions per minute (rpm). The spin amount of the golf ball is related to the amount of deformation of the golf ball. The amount of deformation of the golf ball can be determined according to the magnitude of the output of the piezoelectric material at the time of compression. The rate of rotation can be determined based on the amount of deformation. Different hit golf ball data can be obtained including, but not limited to, deformation amount, deformation angle, ball speed, rotation rate, back spin amount, side spin amount, and other golf ball related parameters.

In some cases, the internal sensor can be The output from the portion of piezoelectric material is supplied with energy. In other cases, the internal sensor can include an energy storage device such as a battery or a capacitor. In a third step 1506, the transmitted golf ball data from the internal sensor is received by a detector. Referring to Figure 15, as long as the hit golf material is received, the ball data is recorded by a golf record unit. In some embodiments, the recording unit can include the detector.

In some cases, the golfer profile database 1712 can include historical material related to the golfer. In other cases, the golfer profile database 1712 can include hit golf material related to the golfer's swing. In some embodiments, the golfer profile database 1712 can store golfer input and information. This can cause the golfer to reevaluate after a certain amount of time has elapsed to determine how their movements change over time. This will also cause the golfer to prepare to play in different positions with different altitudes and climates by merely changing those inputs to their stored data. This can also result in portability of their information in the event of travel or change of location.
本方法與系統之從具有壓電材料之高爾夫球得到擊打高爾夫球資料可以是一更廣泛之運動員資料儲存、分析、及取回系統的一部份，在其中，生命統計與球賽統計是被 儲存以供回顧或以各種程式分析，並建議適合一運動員之球賽的新裝備。如此的程式或資料能夠在能夠由彼此允許觀看該資料之使用者分享資料的電腦1704運行，包括具一處理器的手持裝置，像是智慧型電話或其他個人電子計算裝置般。在某些情況中，網際網路1706可以被用來把擊打高爾夫球資料1702傳輸到資料是可以被儲存、分析、與分享的其他電腦或伺服器。The method and system for obtaining golf ball information from a golf ball having piezoelectric material can be part of a broader system of athlete data storage, analysis, and retrieval, in which vital statistics and ball game statistics are Store for review or analysis in a variety of programs and recommend new equipment for an athlete's game. Such programs or materials can be run on a computer 1704 that can share information by users who are permitted to view the data, including handheld devices having a processor, such as a smart phone or other personal electronic computing device. In some cases, the Internet 1706 can be used to transfer the hit golf material 1702 to other computers or servers that can be stored, analyzed, and shared.
除了以上所述的實施例之外，具有壓電材料的高爾夫球可以在其他利用壓電材料之特質的系統中使用。例如，一種系統與方法能夠施加一電壓到一具有壓電材料之高爾夫球俾在該高爾夫球上產生壓縮力量。在如此的一種系統與方法中，該壓縮力量能夠被用來產生該高爾夫球對抗一高爾夫球桿之桿面的額外推力或彈力或者能夠被用來在撞擊之前使該高爾夫球的外殼變硬以減少旋轉量。In addition to the embodiments described above, golf balls having piezoelectric materials can be used in other systems that utilize the properties of piezoelectric materials. For example, a system and method can apply a voltage to a golf ball having a piezoelectric material to create a compressive force on the golf ball. In such a system and method, the compressive force can be used to create additional thrust or spring force of the golf ball against the face of a golf club or can be used to stiffen the outer shell of the golf ball prior to impact Reduce the amount of rotation.
雖然本發明的各種實施例業已被描述，該說明是傾向於作為例證，而不是限制且對於熟知此項技術的人仕而言會很顯而易知的是在本發明之範圍之內之更多的實施例及實施是有可能的。據此，除了按照後附的申請專利範圍以及其之等效物之外，本發明是未被限制的。而且，在後附之申請專利範圍的範圍之內各種變化與改變會被完成。While the various embodiments of the present invention have been described, the description is intended to be illustrative and not restrictive, and it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that Many embodiments and implementations are possible.
