The physical quantity acquisition unit 101 supplies the received measurement result data to the classification unit 102 to notify the classification unit 102 of the acquired physical quantity and the player identification information of the player from which the physical quantity is acquired.

[1-3-8] Classification Unit The classification unit 102 is a unit that classifies the plurality of players into a plurality of groups based on the physical quantity acquired by the physical quantity acquisition unit 101 for each of the plurality of players. The classification unit 102 includes a tendency determination unit 105 in this embodiment. The tendency determination means 105 is a means for determining the tendency of the player's action during play (hereinafter referred to as “play action tendency”) based on the physical quantity indicated by the measurement result data. The classifying means 102 classifies those having the same playing action tendency determined by the tendency determining means 105 into the same group.

In the following, a method for determining a playing action tendency by the tendency determining means 105 is described.
The tendency determination means 105 determines, based on the physical quantity acquired by the physical quantity acquisition means 101, for example, when the golf club face collides with the ball, that is, the head speed at impact, the opening degree of the club face, and the club head trajectory. Each numerical value indicating the trend is calculated.

  The tendency determining means 105 calculates, for example, the relative position with respect to the position at the time of addressing the golf club at each time and the speed at the position from the three-axis acceleration of the mounting portion described above, and the golf club by downswing Impacts the time when the speed suddenly changes when the player approaches the address position again (that is, the time when the ball hits the club bed and the speed of the golf club changes instantaneously) Judgment is time. The tendency determining means 105 determines the head speed (unit: m, for example) from the speed measured at the time of impact and the type of golf club used for the swing (representing the length of the golf club, the longer the head speed increases). / S (meter per second)).

  The opening degree of the club face is, for example, based on the direction targeted by the player for launching the ball at the time of addressing (hereinafter referred to as “launch target direction”), and the direction of the club face at impact is relative to the launch target direction. (Hereinafter referred to as “face opening angle”). Further, the club head trajectory at the time of impact is represented by an angle (hereinafter referred to as “trajectory angle”) formed by the direction in which the club head moves at impact (hereinafter referred to as “head movement direction”) with respect to the launch target direction. The The “launching direction” here refers to the direction in which the ball collided with the club head jumps out at the moment of leaving the club head. The face opening angle and the trajectory angle will be described more specifically with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining the face opening angle and the trajectory angle. In the following, the case where the player is right-handed will be described, but in the case of left-handed, it is only necessary to reverse the left and right. FIG. 7A shows a state in which a player (not shown) addresses the club head 7 of the golf club 5 with the club head 6 behind the ball 8 and the club face 7 facing the ball 8. It is assumed that the player swings with the direction in which the club face 7 faces at the time of address as the target direction A1. When both the head movement direction and the club face direction at the time of impact coincide with the launch target direction A1 by this swing, the ball is launched toward the launch target direction A1, and flies straight without bending left and right.

  FIG. 7B shows an example of the state of the golf club 5 at the time of impact when the player swings on the outside-in path. In this example, while the club head 6 moves in the head moving direction A2, the club face 7 is launched and the ball is hit in the state in the target direction A1. In this case, the face opening angle is 0 °, and the trajectory angle is θ1 formed by the launch target direction A1 and the head movement direction A2.

  FIG. 7C shows an example of the state of the golf club 5 at the time of impact when the player swings in an inside-out path. In this example, while the club head 6 moves in the head moving direction A3, the club face 7 is launched and the ball is hit in the state toward the target direction A1. In this case, the face opening angle is 0 °, and the trajectory angle is θ2 formed by the launch target direction A1 and the head movement direction A3. In the following, the trajectory angle formed by the head moving direction facing the left side toward the launch target direction as θ1 is represented by a negative value (for example, −3 °), and directed to the right side toward the launch target direction as θ2. The trajectory angle formed by the head moving direction is represented by a positive value (for example, + 3 °). Also, the face opening angle is indicated by a negative value when the face is facing left toward the launch target direction, and is indicated by a positive value when the face is facing right toward the launch target direction. And

  The trend determining means 105 first calculates the azimuth in the direction along the shaft of the golf club at the time of addressing from the azimuth angles of the three axes measured at the time of addressing (inclination angles with respect to the north-south direction, east-west direction, and vertical direction). To do. The relationship between the direction of the shaft and the direction in which the club face faces is determined by the type of golf club, and the tendency determination means 105 stores data indicating the relationship. The tendency determination means 105 calculates the azimuth angle in the direction in which the club face is facing at the address as the azimuth angle indicating the launch target direction from the calculated azimuth angle and the type of golf club. The azimuth angle may be calculated on the assumption that the relationship between the shaft direction and the direction in which the club face faces is common to all types of golf clubs. In this case, it is not necessary to select or input a golf club type.

  The tendency determination means 105 calculates the angle formed by the azimuth angle indicating the calculated launch target direction and the club face direction calculated from the three axis azimuth angles measured at the time of impact as the face opening angle at the time of impact. To do. Further, the tendency determining means 105 calculates an angle formed by the azimuth angle indicating the calculated launch target direction and the speed direction at impact, that is, the head moving direction, as the trajectory angle at impact. The tendency determining means 105 determines the playing action tendency based on the head speed, face opening angle and orbit angle calculated as described above.

The tendency determining means 105 stores a tendency table in which the head speed, the face opening angle and the trajectory angle are associated with the playing action tendency.
FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of the trend table. In the tendency table shown in FIG. 8, a play speed tendency of “short hitter (having a short flight distance)” is associated with a head speed range of “less than 38 m / s (meter per second)”. In addition, a play movement tendency of “hook (ball jumps to the left)” is associated with a face opening angle range of “−5 ° or less” and a trajectory angle range of “−5 ° or more”, and “+ 5 ° The face movement angle tendency of “push out (the ball jumps out to the right)” is associated with the face opening angle range of “above” and the orbit angle range of “+ 5 ° or less”.

  In this example, even when the face opening angle is −5 ° or less (that is, the face is closed), the ball jumping to the left returns to the center if the orbital angle is a slice rotation. So, even if the face opening angle is + 5 ° or more (that is, the face is open), the ball jumping to the right is centered if the orbital angle is a hook rotation. Because it comes back, it is not included in the pushout. Further, a play motion tendency of “slice (the ball bends to the right)” is associated with the range of the trajectory angle of “−5 ° or less”, and “hook (ball) Is associated with the tendency to play).

  When the measurement result data is supplied from the physical quantity acquisition unit 101, the tendency determination unit 105 associates each piece of information indicated by the measurement result data, that is, player identification information, physical quantity (acceleration and azimuth angle), and golf club type. And remember. For example, when the number of physical quantities stored in association with certain player identification information exceeds a threshold value, the tendency determination unit 105 determines the head speed, face opening angle, and the like based on the physical quantities stored so far and the type of golf club. Calculate the trajectory angle. The trend determination unit 105 may perform this calculation periodically, or may perform this calculation when requested by the player via the user device 20. Further, the above-described method for calculating the head speed, the face opening angle, and the trajectory angle is an example, and each value may be calculated using a known technique or the like other than this.

  When the calculated head speed, face opening angle, and trajectory angle are included in the range shown in the trend table, the tendency determination unit 105 determines the one associated with the range as the play motion tendency. . For example, when the head speed is calculated as 43 m / s, the face opening angle is + 8 °, and the trajectory angle is + 3 °, the tendency determination unit 105 determines the face opening angle range of “+ 5 ° or more” and “+ 5 °. “Push-out” associated with the range of the orbital angle “below” is determined as the play motion tendency.

  The classifying unit 102 classifies players having the same playing action tendency determined by the tendency determining unit 105 into the same group. If the tendency table shown in FIG. 8 is used, the classification unit 102 classifies the players into five groups such as “short hitter” shown in the tendency table. In this case, the classification means 102 classifies the players for which a plurality of play motion tendencies have been determined into a plurality of groups, and the player for whom the play motion tendencies have not been determined does not classify the groups.

  Note that the classification means 102 may prevent a player from being classified into two or more groups by determining a priority play action tendency when a plurality of play action trends are determined. Further, for example, the tendency determination means 105 uses a tendency table in which a range such that the head speed is always included in any of the ranges so that all players are classified into any of the groups. Good. The classification unit 102 associates the player identification information of each player with the group identification information (group ID or the like) for identifying the group into which the player is classified, and supplies it to the providing unit 103.

[1-3-9] Providing Means Providing means 103 provides information related to what a certain player uses in relation to play (the above-mentioned usage information) to other players classified in the same group as that player. It is means to do. Hereinafter, a player whose usage information is provided to other players is referred to as a “first player”, and a player whose usage information is provided to a player is referred to as a “second player”. To distinguish. The providing unit 103 includes usage information acquisition unit 104 that acquires usage information to be provided to the second player, that is, usage information of the first player.

  The providing unit 103 supplies the content identification information and player identification information transmitted from the presentation unit 204 described above and the player identification information and group identification information supplied from the classification unit 102 to the usage information acquisition unit 104. The usage information acquisition unit 104 stores content identification information and player identification information in, for example, a player DB (Data Base) that stores information about each player. Further, the usage information acquisition unit 104 also stores group identification information associated with the player identification information in the player DB.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an example of information stored in the player DB. The player DB shown in FIG. 9 stores player identification information “P001”, “P002”, and “P003” in association with group identification information “G01” representing a short hitter group. Among these, content identification information “C005” and “C011” is stored in association with “P001”, and content identification information “C005” and “C021” is stored in association with “P002”. .

  Further, the content identification information associated with “P003” is not stored. In this example, both the players identified by “P001” and “P002” have both measured using the measuring device 30 and used lesson content, and the players identified by “P003” This shows that measurement has been performed using the apparatus 30, but lesson content has not been used.

  When the provision unit 103 receives the request data transmitted from the request unit 203 of the user device 20, the provision unit 103 supplies the request data to the usage information acquisition unit 104. The utilization information acquisition unit 104 refers to the group identification information associated with the player identification information indicated by the supplied request data among the stored group identification information, and other information associated with the group identification information. Player identification information is extracted. The usage information acquisition means 104 reads and acquires the lesson content identified by the content identification information stored in association with the extracted player identification information from the storage unit 12.

  For example, when the information shown in FIG. 9 is stored in the player DB and the request information indicating the player identification information “P003” is received, the usage information acquisition unit 104 receives “G01” associated with “P003”. The player identification information “P001” and “P002” associated with “G01” is extracted. Then, the usage information acquisition unit 104 acquires the lesson content identified by the content identification information “C005”, “C011”, and “C021” associated with the extracted “P001” and “P002”.

  When the usage information acquisition unit 104 receives the request data indicating the player identification information “P001”, it extracts the player identification information “P002” and “P003” in the same manner as described above, The lesson content identified by the content identification information “C005” and “C021” is acquired. At this time, the usage information acquisition unit 104 may not acquire the lesson content identified by the content identification information (in this example, “C005”) associated with the player identification information indicated by the request data. . Thereby, the lesson content that has already been used by the second player can be prevented from being provided to the second player.

  The providing unit 103 transmits the usage information (lesson content in this example) acquired by the usage information acquiring unit 104 to the user device 20 that has transmitted the request data. This lesson content is presented to the player by the presentation unit 204 of the user device 20 as described above, so that the lesson content is provided to the player. As described above, in this embodiment, the player who has performed an operation for requesting the usage information to the user device 20 is the second player, and other players classified in the same group as the second player are the first player. Become a player.

[1-4] Operation Each device included in the information processing system 1 performs a providing process for providing usage information to the second player based on the above configuration. The providing process includes a classification process until the server device 10 acquires the physical quantity and classifies the player into a group, and a presentation process until the usage information is presented to the second player.

  FIG. 10 is a sequence diagram illustrating an example of the operation of each device in the classification process. The classification process is started when the player attaches the measuring device 30 to the golf club and selects or inputs the type of the golf club to the user device 20. First, the user device 20 stores the type of golf club selected or input (step S11). Next, when the player swings the golf club to which the measurement device 30 is attached, the measurement device 30 measures the acceleration and azimuth angle of the attachment portion described above (step S12). The measurement device 30 transmits measurement result data indicating the measurement result to the user device 20 (step S13). Step S12 is an operation performed by the measurement unit 301, and step S13 is an operation performed by the transmission unit 302.

  The user device 20 associates the player identification information and the type of the golf club stored in step S11 with the measurement result data transmitted in step S13 (step S14), and transmits it to the server device 10 (step S15). Step S14 is an operation performed by the association unit 201, and step S15 is an operation performed by the transmission unit 202. When the measurement result data is transmitted in step S15, the server device 10 acquires the physical quantity indicated by the measurement result data (step S16), and classifies the players into groups based on the acquired physical quantity (step S17). . Step S16 is an operation performed by the physical quantity acquisition unit 101, and step S17 is an operation performed by the classification unit 102.

  The above classification process is performed each time the player swings the golf club to which the measuring device 30 is attached, for example. Note that step S11 does not have to be performed every time, and may be performed only when the type of golf club to which the measuring device 30 is attached changes. Step S17 does not need to be performed every time, for example, when the acquired physical quantity reaches a predetermined number or at a predetermined time interval (every day, every week, etc.). Good.

  FIG. 11 is a sequence diagram illustrating an example of the operation of each device in the presentation process. The presentation process is started when, for example, a certain player (second player in this example) performs a request operation for requesting usage information. First, when the user device 20 receives a request operation for usage information (step S21), the request data indicating the request is transmitted to the server device 10 (step S22). Steps S21 and S22 are operations performed by the request unit 203.

  When the server device 10 receives the request data in step S22, the player who requested the usage information (that is, the second player in this embodiment) and another player classified in the same group (more specifically, the player's) Player identification information) is extracted (step S23). The server device 10 thus extracts the first player in the present embodiment. Next, the server device 10 acquires the extracted usage information (lesson content in the present embodiment) of the first player (step S24), and transmits the acquired usage information to the user device 20 (step S25). . Steps S23 to S25 are operations performed by the providing unit 103 (S23 and S24 are the usage information acquiring unit 104).

  When the usage information is received in step S25, the user device 20 displays a notification image to that effect (step S26). When the second player performs an operation for presenting usage information, the received usage information is displayed. Information is presented to the second player (step S27). Steps S26 and S27 are operations performed by the presentation unit 204. As described above, by performing the classification process and the presentation process, the usage information about the first player classified into the same group as the second player is provided to the second player.

[1-5] Effects of the First Embodiment If you try to find what suits you from among a variety of lesson contents, you will have to try various lesson contents yourself, which is very time-consuming. . In the present embodiment, players who share a common play action tendency are classified into the same group, and for a player who wants to use lesson content (the above-mentioned second player), other players belonging to the same group as that player ( Lesson content that has been used by the first player described above is provided. The lesson content provided in this way is used by other players that belong to the same group as you (in this embodiment, the play behavior tendency is common), so it is more suitable for you than other lesson content Is likely. According to the present embodiment as described above, it is possible to reduce time and labor when searching for a suitable one from the ones used by the player in connection with play (lesson contents in the present embodiment).

[2] Second Embodiment Hereinafter, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described focusing on differences from the first embodiment. In the first embodiment, when usage information is requested from the second player, that is, the usage information is provided based on the group to which each player belongs at the current time point, in the second embodiment, each player Usage information is also provided based on groups that belonged to. Further, in the second embodiment, information relating to SNS (Social Networking Service) posting relating to play is provided to the player as usage information. Posts here include, for example, what the player has stated about recent lessons, places they played, tools used in play, etc.

[2-1] Configuration FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of a functional configuration of the server apparatus according to the second embodiment. FIG. 12 shows a server device 10a including a storage unit 106 in addition to the units shown in FIG. The storage unit 106 is a unit that stores a history of classification performed by the classification unit 102. In this embodiment, when the classification unit 102 classifies a plurality of players into a plurality of groups, the storage unit 106 associates the player identification information of each player with the group identification information for identifying the group into which the player is classified. Notify The storage unit 106 stores the notified information in association with the notified date, that is, the classified date. Information stored in the storage unit 106 will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating an example of player identification information stored in the storage unit 106. In the example of FIG. 13, the group identification information of the group in which each player has been classified at the three points of time “one year ago”, “six months ago”, and “current” is associated with the player identification information of those players. Expressed. For example, it is indicated that the player identified by “P001” is classified into the group of short hitters identified by “G01” at a date and time that is earlier than the time point one year ago and closest to that time point. .

  In the example of FIG. 13, the player identified by “P001”, “P002”, and “P003” at the time of “1 year ago” belongs to the group of short hitters identified by “G01”. It is represented. Also, in this group, the players identified by “P001”, “P003”, “P004”, and “P006” at the time of “half year ago” are “P003”, “P006”, “P006” at the time of “current”. It is shown that players identified by “P009”, “P010”, and “P012” belong to each other. As described above, the information stored by the storage means 106 represents the history of the group that each player belongs in addition to the group to which each player currently belongs. The storage unit 106 stores the history described above.

The providing unit 103 provides usage information by at least one of the following three methods based on the history thus stored by the storage unit 106.
[2-2] First Providing Method In the first providing method, the providing unit 103 currently belongs to a group to which the second player has belonged in the past based on the history stored in the storage unit 106. The usage information of the first player is provided to the second player. This providing method will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram for explaining a method of providing usage information. In the example of FIG. 14, group identification information “G01”, “G02”, and “G03” for identifying the short hitter, middle hitter, and long hitter groups, and those groups belong to one year ago and six months ago. Players and the players they currently belong to. In this example, player A belongs to a short hitter one year ago, a middle hitter six months ago, and now belongs to a long hitter group.

  Currently, player B belongs to the short hitter group and player C belongs to the middle hitter group. In this example, when the player A is the second player, the usage information acquisition unit 104 included in the providing unit 103 determines whether the player A currently belongs to the short hitter group to which the player A belongs one year ago. The usage information and the usage information of the player C who currently belongs to the middle hitter group to which the player A belonged six months ago are acquired as the usage information of the first player.

  The usage information acquisition unit 104 stores, for example, SNS accounts used by each player, accesses the SNS site, and uses a keyword (for example, “golf”, “ "Swing", "round", etc.) are extracted. The usage information acquisition unit 104 acquires information for accessing the extracted post (for example, information on a link to each post) and the post itself (an image or a document in the post) as usage information. The usage information acquired in this way is transmitted to the user device 20 of the player A who is the second player by the providing unit 103, as in the first embodiment. When the user device 20 presents this usage information, the player A can see the posts of the players B and C, which are the first players.

  Player A has belonged to a group of short hitters and middle hitters in the past, and thus has an experience of what he / she worried about and what kind of contrivance / effort was made at those times. Therefore, it is possible to post to the players B and C who currently belong to those groups by making use of their experiences, which is more useful to the players B and C than posts from other players. It is easy to become a thing. In addition, it can be expected that the exchange between the player A and the players B and C is continued as a trigger, and that the experience of the player A is further utilized.

  Thus, the second player can provide his / her past experience to other players by providing the second player's post (usage information in the above example) to the second player by the first providing method. Satisfaction that it is useful can be obtained. Also, the first player (in this case B and C) can be told what the second player has experienced when belonging to the same group as theirs.

[2-3] Second Providing Method In the second providing method, the providing means 103 has previously belonged to the group to which the second player currently belongs based on the history stored in the storage means 106. The usage information of the first player is provided to the second player. This providing method will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 15 is a diagram for explaining a method of providing usage information. In the example of FIG. 15, as in FIG. 14, the group identification information “G01”, “G02”, “G03”, the players who belonged to those groups one year ago and six months ago, and the players who currently belong Is shown.

  In this example, player D currently belongs to the short hitter group. Player E belongs to the short hitter group one year ago, and belongs to the middle hitter group six months ago. Player F continues to belong to the short hitter group from six months ago to the present. In this example, when the player D is the second player, the usage information acquisition means 104 is the same as the usage information of the player E who belonged to the short hitter group to which the player D currently belongs, one year ago. The usage information of the player F that belonged six months ago (and still belongs) is acquired as the usage information of the first player. It should be noted that the method for providing the posting as the usage information is the same as the first providing method. Player D, who is the second player, sees the posts of players E and F who belonged to the short hitter group in the past, so what about those first players? You can know if you have made an effort and can be helpful.

[2-4] Third Providing Method In the third providing method, the providing means 103 may belong to the group to which the second player currently belongs based on the history stored in the storage means 106 in the past. And the usage information of the other players who currently belong to the group targeted by the second player is acquired as the usage information of the first player. In this case, for example, when the second player performs an operation of requesting usage information from the user device 20, an operation of selecting a target group is performed.

  Then, the user device 20 transmits request data indicating the target group to the server device 10a, and the usage information acquisition unit 104 is based on the group indicated by the received request data, that is, the group targeted by the player. Get usage information. Note that the group targeted by the second player is not limited to such a request, but may be registered in advance based on the operation of the second player. Details of the third providing method will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 16 is a diagram for explaining a method of providing usage information. In the example of FIG. 16, as in FIG. 14, the group identification information “G01”, “G02”, “G03”, the players who belonged to those groups one year ago and six months ago, and the players who currently belong Is shown. In this example, player G currently belongs to the short hitter group. Player H belongs to the short hitter group one year ago, and now belongs to the long hitter group. Player I belongs to the short hitter group six months ago, and now belongs to the long hitter group.

  In this example, when the player G is the second player and the group targeted by the player G is a long hitter group, the usage information acquisition means 104 belongs to the past short hitter group and The usage information of the players H and I belonging to the long hitter is acquired as the usage information of the first player. It should be noted that the method of providing the posting, which is the usage information, is the same as the first providing method.

  Player G, who is the second player, belongs to the short hitter group in the past, and by seeing the posts of players H and I who belong to the long hitter group that he is the target, What the first player is worried about, what ingenuity and effort, as a result, you can know that you are now in the target group, It can be a reference for becoming a player.

[3] Third Embodiment Hereinafter, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described focusing on differences from the first and second embodiments. In the second embodiment, all of the acquired usage information is provided to the second player. However, in the third embodiment, a part of the acquired usage information that is narrowed down is the second player. Provided to.

  FIG. 17 is a diagram illustrating an example of a functional configuration of the server device according to the third embodiment. In FIG. 17, in addition to each unit shown in FIG. 5, a server apparatus 10b including a unique information acquisition unit 107 is shown. The unique information acquisition unit 107 is a unit that acquires, for each of the plurality of players, unique information that is information unique to the player other than the physical quantity.

  The unique information acquisition means 107 acquires, for example, information representing the player's physique (height, weight, etc.) as the unique information. In this case, for example, when the player performs an operation for requesting usage information from the user device 20, an operation for inputting information representing his / her physique is performed. Then, the user device 20 transmits the request data indicating the inputted physique to the server device 10a, and the unique information acquisition unit 107 acquires the physique information indicated by the received request data as the unique information.

  The unique information is not limited to such a request, and may be registered in advance based on the player's operation before that time. In this case, the unique information acquisition unit 107 acquires unique information at the time of registration. In addition, when the player uses some service for registering the unique information, the unique information obtaining unit 107 may request and obtain the unique information from the service. The unique information acquisition unit 107 supplies the acquired unique information to the providing unit 103.

  The providing means 103 uses the usage information acquired for another player that belongs to the same group as the second player and whose acquired unique information is the same as that of the second player. To the second player. For example, when the height is acquired as the unique information, the providing unit 103 determines that the unique information is common to the second player and other players whose height difference is within a threshold (for example, 5 cm). As described above, the providing unit 103 determines that the unique information is common when the difference is within a certain range even if the unique information does not completely match.

  The providing unit 103 compares the unique information acquired for the player whose usage information has been acquired by the usage information acquiring unit 104 with the specific information of the second player. Then, the providing unit 103 provides the second player with the usage information acquired for the player who has determined that the unique information is common as the usage information of the first player.

  In this modified example, among the players classified into the same group as the second player, the usage information of other players having the same specific information (physique in the above example) is used as the usage information of the first player. Provided to 2 players. For example, if the usage information is lesson content, it is more likely to be useful if it is used by a player with a physique closer to you. That is, according to this modification, it is possible to provide usage information by narrowing down to those that are more useful to the player.

  In addition to the physique, for example, information representing the frequency of practice (daily, once a week, once a month, etc.) may be acquired as the unique information. Also in this case, it is more likely that the usage information of the player practicing at the same frequency as himself will be useful to him. In addition, for example, information representing an average score of golf may be acquired as unique information. In this case, the usage information of the player who plays with the same average score as that of himself is more likely to be useful to him.

  In addition, when the providing unit 103 determines a player having the same unique information as described above, if the number of such players is less than a threshold (for example, one or three), the providing unit 103 determines the common. The threshold value for doing so may be changed so that the unique information can be easily shared. For example, if the height is 5 cm, the providing unit 103 determines that the unique information is common when the height difference is within the threshold and the threshold is 10 cm. The determination is made again. As a result, it is possible to prevent the usage information from being narrowed down even if the usage information has been acquired, and the usage information to be provided from becoming very small.

[4] Modifications Each of the above-described embodiments is merely an example of implementation of the present invention, and may be modified as follows. Moreover, you may implement each embodiment mentioned above and each modification shown below, combining each as needed.

[4-1] Selecting Past Time Points In the second embodiment, the providing means 103 is a group in which each player is classified at both “one year ago” and “six years ago” in the example of FIG. However, when there are a plurality of such past time points, any one of them may be selected.

  FIG. 18 is a diagram illustrating an example of a functional configuration of the server device according to the present modification. In FIG. 18, a server device 10 c including a frequency information acquisition unit 108 in addition to the units illustrated in FIG. 12 is illustrated. The frequency information acquisition means 108 is means for acquiring information indicating the frequency of play (hereinafter referred to as “frequency information”) for each of a plurality of players. For example, the frequency information acquisition unit 108 is notified of the fact that the physical quantity has been acquired from the physical quantity acquisition unit 101 and the player identification information of the player from which the physical quantity has been acquired. The frequency information acquisition unit 108 stores the notified player identification information and the date and time notified in association with the player identification information. This date and time represents the measurement date and time when the measurement was performed.

  FIG. 19 is a diagram illustrating an example of information stored in the frequency information acquisition unit 108. In this example, two measurement dates of “2014/1/15” and “2014/3/5” are associated with the player identification information “P001”, “2014/1/22” and “2014 / 2/1 "is stored one by one. For example, the frequency information acquisition unit 108 acquires the frequency information counted as one play even if a plurality of physical quantities are acquired on the same day. Specifically, the frequency information acquisition unit 108 calculates the number of dates from which the duplication is omitted among the dates included in the date and time stored in association with the player identification information of the player whose frequency information is to be acquired. Of these, the value calculated by dividing the oldest to the present period is obtained as frequency information.

  When the measurement date and time shown in FIG. 19 is stored and the current date is “2014/3/14”, the frequency information acquisition unit 108 sets “4”, which is the number of dates without duplication, to “2014 / Frequency information “twice a month” is acquired by dividing by a period of “2 months” from “1/15” to “2014/3/14”. In addition, when the measurement date / time is more than a predetermined time (for example, 3 hours) like the measurement date / time of “2014/3/5”, it may be the same date or another time. In that case, in the example of FIG. 19, the frequency information acquisition unit 108 is the number of days when the date of “2014/3/5” that is 9 hours apart is counted as “5”. ”Is divided by“ 2 months ”to obtain frequency information“ 2.5 times a month ”. The frequency information acquisition unit 108 supplies the acquired frequency information to the providing unit 103.

The providing unit 103 supplies the supplied frequency information to the usage information acquiring unit 104. The usage information acquisition unit 104 first selects a past time point corresponding to the frequency indicated by the frequency information acquired by the frequency information acquisition unit 108 for the second player. For example, the usage information acquisition unit 104 selects a past time point using a past table in which a frequency range is associated with a past time point.
FIG. 20 is a diagram illustrating an example of a past table. In this example, a past time point of “one year ago” is associated with a frequency range of “less than twice a month” and a past time of “six months ago” is assigned to a frequency range of “more than once a month”. Are associated with each other. For example, when the poor information indicating the frequency of “twice a month” or “2.5 times a month” described in the example of FIG. The past time point “six months ago” associated with “twice or more” is selected.

  In this case, for example, if the player D who currently belongs to the short hitter group in the example of FIG. 15 is the second player, the usage information acquisition unit 104 selects the past time point of half a year before the short hitter group. The usage information of the player F who belonged to the group, when the past time point of 1 year ago was selected, the usage information of the player E who belonged to the short hitter group 1 year ago was used as the usage information of the first player Get each. The providing unit 103 provides the usage information acquired in this manner to the second player. In this way, the providing unit 103 uses the player who belonged to the group to which the second player currently belongs based on the history stored in the storage unit 106, for example, in the past time point previously selected. Information is provided to the second player as usage information of the first player.

  Players with a high frequency of play are more likely to change the group they belong to, and compared to players with a low frequency of play, usage information obtained using past points closer to the present may be easier to reference for play. . In this case, by acquiring the usage information as described above, it is possible to provide usage information that is more easily referred to by the second player. For example, if a player belongs to a long hitter group, the group cannot be maintained unless the frequency of play is high, that is, the group to which a player with a low frequency of play belongs may be easily changed. In that case, the providing means 103 selects the past time point using the past table in which the relationship between the frequency range and the past time point is opposite to that shown in FIG. It is possible to provide usage information that is easier to refer to.

  The providing means 103 uses the history stored in the storage means 106 to obtain the usage information of other players that currently belong to the group that the second player previously belongs to at the previous time point. It may be provided as usage information of one player. In this case, for example, if the player A is the second player in the example of FIG. 14, the usage information acquisition unit 104 selects the group of middle hitters to which the player A belonged six months ago when selecting a past time point six months ago. The usage information of the player C who currently belongs to the player B, the usage information of the player B who currently belongs to the group of short hitters to which the player A belonged one year ago when the past time point of one year ago was selected. Obtained as usage information for one player. In this case, it is possible to provide the second player with usage information of the first player that makes it easier for the second player to refer to his / her experience.

[4-2] Usage Information of Players of Other Groups In the embodiment, the providing unit 103 provides usage information of other players classified into the same group as the second player to the second player. You may provide the usage information of players classified into other groups.
FIG. 21 is a diagram illustrating an example of a functional configuration of the server device according to the present modification. In FIG. 21, a classifying unit 102d including a stability determining unit 109, a determination history storing unit 110, and a server device 10d including these units are shown instead of the tendency determining unit 105 shown in FIG.

  The stability determination means 109 is a means for determining the stability of the player's action during play based on the acquired physical quantity. For example, the stability determination unit 109 calculates the head speed, the face opening angle, and the trajectory angle in the same manner as the tendency determination unit 105, and determines the stability based on the magnitude of variance of the calculated values. For example, the stability determination unit 109 determines the stability in five stages from LV5 having the highest stability to LV1 having the lowest stability. In this case, the stability determination unit 109 indicates that the stability is “LV5” if the variance is less than the first threshold, and the stability is determined if the variance is greater than or equal to the first threshold and less than the second threshold (first threshold <second threshold). Is “LV4” and the variance is greater than or equal to the second threshold value and less than the third threshold value (second threshold value <third threshold value), the stability level is determined as “LV3”, and the stability level is determined to “LV1” in the same manner.

  The classifying unit 102d classifies the plurality of players into a group having a common stability determined by the stability determining unit 109. When the stability is determined as in the above example, the classification unit 102d classifies each player into five groups whose stability is from LV5 to LV1. The stability determination unit 109 notifies the determination history storage unit 110 of the determined stability in association with the player identification information of the player to be determined. The determination history storage unit 110 is a unit that stores a history of determination by the stability determination unit 109. The determination history storage unit 110 stores the notified stability and the player identification information in association with the notified date and time, so that the storage unit 106 shown in FIG. 12 stores the classification history. The judgment history is stored.

The utilization information acquisition unit 104 determines the degree of change in stability based on the determination history stored in the determination history storage unit 110. The usage information acquisition unit 104 determines the degree of change in stability using, for example, the degree of change in the classified group. This determination method will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 22 is a diagram for explaining a method of determining the degree of change in stability. In FIG. 22, group identification information from “G11” to “G15” for identifying the groups having the stability levels LV1 to LV5 is shown.

  In this example, the usage information acquisition unit 104 belongs to the “LV1” group one year ago, and for the player J currently belonging to the “LV3” group, the two-stage group changes with higher stability. Therefore, the degree of change in stability is determined as “+2”. In addition, the usage information acquisition unit 104 determines that the degree of change in stability is “0” for the player K who remains in the “LV3” group from one year ago to the present because the group has not changed. About the player J who belongs to the “LV4” group one year ago and currently belongs to the “LV3” group, the level of change in stability is changed because the one-stage group changes to the lower stability level. Is determined as “−1”.

  For example, when the degree of change in stability of the second player is greater than or equal to a first threshold value (for example, “+2”), the usage information acquisition unit 104 is a group in which the second player for which the determination has been made is classified The usage information about the players belonging to the group having higher stability is acquired as the usage information of the first player. In the example of FIG. 22, the usage information acquisition unit 104 uses other players belonging to the same stability LV3 as the player J as the usage information to be provided to the player J who has determined that the degree of change in stability is “+2”. In addition to the above, the usage information of the player belonging to the LV4 having higher stability is acquired as the usage information of the first player. In this case, the usage information acquisition unit 104 may acquire only usage information of players belonging to LV4 without acquiring usage information of other players belonging to LV3.

  In addition, the usage information acquisition unit 104 classifies the second player for which the determination is made, for example, when the degree of change in stability of the second player is equal to or less than a second threshold (eg, “−1”). The usage information about the players belonging to the group having a lower stability than the determined group is acquired as the usage information of the first player. In the example of FIG. 22, the usage information acquisition unit 104 uses other players belonging to the same stability LV3 as the player L as the usage information of the player L who has determined that the degree of change in stability is “−1”. In addition to or instead of, the usage information of the player belonging to the LV 2 having a lower stability is acquired as the usage information of the first player.

  Note that the usage information acquisition unit 104 may perform the above determination using, for example, the variance used for determining the stability, in addition to using the degree of change of the classified group. For example, the difference in variance used in the determination of the current stability one year ago is used as a value representing the degree of change in stability. The providing unit 103 provides the usage information acquired as described above to the second player. In this way, the providing unit 103 determines whether or not the second player and the second player are in accordance with the degree of change in the stability determined for the second player based on the determination history stored in the determination history storage unit 110. Provides the second player with the usage information of the players classified into groups with different stability levels as the usage information of the first player.

  In the case of golf, the higher the above-mentioned stability, the easier it is to obtain a score that can stabilize the ball and the flight distance. That is, the high degree of stability is easy to represent the player's skill. In addition, players who improve at a fast pace are more proficient in a short period of time because they are more athletic and have other sports experiences than players who do not improve their skills.
