An electronic darting system, a processing method for an electronic darts game, and a dartboard device are provided. The electronic darting system includes a dartboard device, a tip unit, and an image providing device. The dartboard device includes a dartboard case, a plurality of induction circuits, and a control circuit. The dartboard case includes a board surface. The plurality of induction circuits are disposed on the board surface, and the plurality of induction circuits are intersecting with each other to form a plurality of induction areas of a plurality of target areas of the board surface. The image providing device provides a plurality of images onto the board surface of the dartboard case.

An online dart competition system including at least two mobile devices having a first and a second image capturing module, configured to capture an dart player image and a dartboard image, respectively; a mirror to reflect/redirect the dartboard image; a wireless transmission module, configured to transmit a score, the dart player image, and the dartboard image to the other mobile device and to receive a score, image, and a dartboard image of a competitor from the other mobile device; and a processor. The processor executes an application and displays the scores and at least two images of the dart player image, the dartboard image, the competitor image, and the competitor dartboard image on a display in a split-screen interface. Thus, the at least two images may be viewed by players during the online competition.

A recreational throwing dart comprising a target area at the rear capable of capturing the tip of another dart thrown into it while the dart is in the dartboard and a game comprising said dart. The dart is thrown into the dartboard and then a second dart is thrown at the target area of the first dart in the dartboard. The point of the second dart can stick into, be mechanically captured by, or otherwise adhere to the rear portion of the first dart. This dart creates a new form of gameplay different from traditional dart rules in which the tip of all darts must strike and stick into the dartboard itself. The invention allows the darts to not be damaged by the second dart sticking into the rear of it as happens when a standard dart pierces a dart flight or a dart shaft.

Disclosed is a computer program stored in a computer readable medium according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. The computer program includes commands which cause a computer to execute steps and the steps include: judging hitting locations of one or more dart pins which stick in a dart target having a plurality of score areas; calculating hitting areas of the dart pin based on the judged hitting locations of the dart pins; and calculating scores based on the hitting areas and a predetermined logic.

A system for scoring darts that includes multiple cameras placed substantially parallel to the surface of a dartboard. With a field of view extending across the board, the cameras can be configured to capture images of darts projecting outwardly from the board as they are thrown, and the system can use this image data to calculate the location of each dart, and the corresponding score. Various algorithms may be used to orient the system and calibrate the system to account for irregularities in the images captured by the cameras to accurately determine the location. Proper scoring may be achieved for a variety of dartboards with different patterns of scoring regions based on game rules and corresponding board configurations maintained by the system.

A dart target game set featuring a baseboard and backstop with target locations for various point assignments and gameplay rules. In the preferred embodiment, the game features a canned beverage.

The present disclosure relates to a dart game system. The dart game system includes a dart game device, multiple external facilities, and a control unit configured to control the dart game device and the multiple external facilities. The dart game device includes a dart target having a plurality of point regions, a sensing unit configured to sense a hit to the dart target by a dart, a light source unit configured to output light, and a sound source unit configured to output sound. The multiple external facilities includes additional light source units configured to output additional light, and additional sound source units configured to output additional sound. The control unit is configured to control the light source units and the sound source units to output light or sound according to patterns, which depend on an occurrence of an event.

Disclosed is an online match making method in an electronic dart game apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure in order to implement the aforementioned object. The method includes: receiving a player input including identification information and matching request information of a player; determining a matching player among a plurality of other players by executing a match making algorithm based on the received player input; and a matching step of allowing executing a game with the determined matching player.

A method performed on a computer system, for displaying video replay during a game of darts, comprising continually acquiring throughout the game, a video image of an oche from where a player throws darts towards a dartboard, detecting that a dart has been thrown by a player from the oche and is stationary on the dartboard, determining a trigger event based on the throw of the dart, automatically determining based on the trigger event whether to display a portion of the acquired video image captured between a first predetermined time before said detection and a second predetermined time after said detection, such that the portion of the acquired video image corresponds to the detected throw and displaying on a display the portion of the acquired video image.

An online dart competition system including at least two mobile devices having a first and a second image capturing module, configured to capture an dart player image and a dartboard image, respectively; a mirror to reflect/redirect the dartboard image; a wireless transmission module, configured to transmit a score, the dart player image, and the dartboard image to the other mobile device and to receive a score, image, and a dartboard image of a competitor from the other mobile device; and a processor. The processor executes an application and displays the scores and at least two images of the dart player image, the dartboard image, the competitor image, and the competitor dartboard image on a display in a split-screen interface. Thus, the at least two images may be viewed by players during the online competition.
