Skeleton Model Operation Tool for Supporting Coaches to Encourage Advice Verbalization in Motor Skill Teaching

Kazato Takuma, Tomoko Kojiri · Procedia Computer Science · 2016

In the context of sports, coaches often have difficulty verbally explaining their advice about motor skills because they are tacit knowledge. To verbalize motor skills, coaches must understand “which part in the body” and “how” athletes must move their bodies. The objective of this study is to support coaches to notice “which part of the body” and “how” by operating the skeleton models of other athletes. We introduce our developed system that obtains the skeletons of athletes and provides an interface that coaches can manipulate. Then we experimentally evaluated its effectiveness.
