Abstract

An electronic device for a dartboard structure is disclosed. The dartboard structure comprises a body with a board-surface, a sensing module, a body processing module and a first wireless communication interface. The electronic device comprises a second wireless communication interface, a central processing module and a display module. The sensing module is configured to generate a sensing signal according to the location of at least one dart being thrown to the body. The body processing module converts the sensing signal to a position signal. The location signal is transmitted from the first wireless communication interface to the second wireless communication interface of the electronic device. The central processing module of the electronic device calculates a score according to the location signal so that the display module of the electronic device can display the score.

Claims
