ABSTRACT:
A dartboard with a separate control panel device comprises a control panel device which is independent of the dartboard portion. A transmitter of infrared or of radio is provided on a switch circuit board in the dartboard portion and a receiver of infrared or of radio is provided on a circuit board in the control panel device corresponding to the transmitter. When one of target plates is hit to move backward and touch activated switches because of the dart impulse, a positional signal is generated. The positional signal is then converted to a group of data signals in the transmitter and sent to the receiver through a transmitting element or a wave oscillation element. The group of data signals which are received by a receiving circuit in the control panel device is then converted into scores and shown on displays. Besides, a card slot for scoring software cards, a dry cell seat and a recharger are also provided in the control panel device respectively for players having multiple choice of scoring ways and a selection of playing locations either indoors or outdoors.
