WALKING TRAINING SYSTEM, DISPLAY METHOD, AND DISPLAY PROGRAM
The walking training system includes: a treadmill; a determination unit configured to determine whether a walking of the trainee on the treadmill is an abnormal walking based on predetermined abnormal walking symptoms; a display unit configured to display a result of a determination of each of the abnormal walking symptoms; a reception unit configured receive a selection of at least one result of the determination from the results of the determinations, each of which displayed on the display unit, in which regarding pieces of advice about adjustment items for improving the abnormal walking symptoms in the result of the determination which the reception unit has received the selection, the display unit preferentially displays the pieces of advice that are common to pieces of advice about adjustment items for improving the abnormal walking symptoms in a result of another determination in which the determination unit determines the abnormal walking.
IMPROVED REAL TIME SPORTS MOTION TRAINING AID
A sports training aid comprising a body unit, attachable to a person's body or the person's sports implement, is provided with a positioning sensor module; a feedback stimulator; and a processor. The sports training aid is configured to provide instantaneous feedback on motion faults of a studied sports motion, and the body unit is intended to be attached to a person's body (or a person's sports implement) at a representative location, the location being bound to travel a path representative of the studied sports motion, and the positioning sensor module comprises acceleration sensors and gyro sensors. The processor is configured to determine a still position corresponding to an event wherein the body unit is determined to be still, to keep track of the sensor module's movements relative to the still position, and to activate the feedback stimulator in real time, upon detection of a sports motion fault.
Exosuit system systems and methods for assisting, resisting and aligning core biomechanical functions
Exosuit systems and methods according to various embodiments are described herein. The exosuit system can be a suit that is worn by a wearer on the outside of his or her body. It may be worn under the wearer's normal clothing, over their clothing, between layers of clothing, or may be the wearer's primary clothing itself. The exosuit may be assistive, as it physically assists the wearer in performing particular activities, or can provide other functionality such as communication to the wearer through physical expressions to the body, engagement of the environment, or capturing of information from the wearer.
WEARABLE DEVICE SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GUIDING PHYSICAL MOVEMENTS
A system includes wearable devices positioned on a subject in different locations. Each wearable device includes motion sensors that measure the subject's movement in three dimensions. The motion sensors generate raw sensory data as the subject performs a physical movement. A data filter is selected based on a condition of the subject and a designated movement corresponding to the physical movement, and used to convert the raw sensory data into formatted data. A level of compliance of the physical movement with a movement model for the designated movement is determined by applying comparative modeling techniques to the formatted data and the movement model. Real-time feedback is delivered dynamically to the subject by the wearable devices during the performance of the physical movement based on the level of compliance. The movement model can be generated, and the comparative modeling techniques can be selected, based on the condition of the subject.

DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MONITORING ACTIVITY PERFORMANCE
A control device operates a drone with an onboard camera. The control device obtains a current performance metric to be computed for an activity performed by an individual, determines, based on a positioning rule associated with the current performance metric, a selected relative position, SRP, between the individual and the onboard camera, identifies a reference plane of the individual, operates the drone to move the onboard camera from an initial relative position to attain the SRP in relation to the reference plane; operates the onboard camera, when in the SRP, to capture image(s) of the individual, and provides the image(s) for computation of the current performance metric for the activity performed by the individual. The SRP may be defined, by the positioning rule, to ensure that the orientation of the individual in the image(s) is relevant or optimal for the current performance metric.
Calculating pace and energy expenditure from athletic movement attributes
Systems and methods configured to process motion data associated with a user. The systems and methods are configured to receive motion data from a sensor, calculate motion attributes from the data, and classify the motion data using one or more mathematical models. Attributes may be calculated without classifying the motion data into an activity. Attributes may be compared to mathematical models. Motion data within the models and attributes of the user may be independent of any activity type. Attributes may be compared to select an energy expenditure model from one or more energy expenditure models, or an activity classification model, from the one or more activity classification models. An energy expenditure, or a classification of received data as a linear travel motion, may then be calculated.
DETERMINING GOLF SWING CHARACTERISTICS
Implementations generally relate to determining golf swing characteristics. In some implementations, a method includes obtaining a video of a person performing an action. The method further includes determining from the video a plurality of points associated with the person, where the determining of the plurality of points is performed for each frame of the video. The method further includes determining a plurality of three-dimensional (3D) coordinates for each point of the plurality of points, where the determining of the 3D coordinates is performed for each frame of the video. The method further includes determining a movement of the plurality of points based at least in part on the 3D coordinates. The method further includes determining one or more movement errors based at least in part on the movement of the plurality of points.
DETERMINING A KINEMATIC SEQUENCE
Implementations generally relate to determining a kinematic sequence. In some implementations, a method includes obtaining a video of a person performing an action. The method further includes determining from the video a plurality of points associated with the person, where the determining of the plurality of points is performed for each frame of the video. The method further includes converting two-dimensional (2D) coordinates of the plurality of points to three-dimensional (3D) coordinates, where the converting is performed for each frame of the video. The method further includes determining a movement of the plurality of points based at least in part on the 3D coordinates.
Training device assembly for improving ball control
A device assembly causes the concentration of a sportsperson in the course of a throwing, kicking, striking and shooting movement and/or the physical movement sequence to increasingly focus on feeling and thereby improve performance. The device assembly has a detector which transmits a signal to a pair of shutter spectacles via a transmitter at a selectable time between the beginning of a throwing, kicking, striking and shooting movement and/or the physical movement sequence and the movement phase commenced in this way. The shutter spectacles have a receiving circuit which converts the lenses of the shutter spectacles from a high transparency to a low transparency when said signal is received.
