Systems and methods for movement skill analysis and skill augmentation and cueing

Abstract

A movement augmentation system that provides various forms of feedback, including real time and post-performance for training and rehabilitation is disclosed. The systems, devices and methods provideaugmentation to human movement behavior in order to accelerate acquisition of complex movement skills by a user and to mitigate injuries from poor movement technique (e.g., joint damage or muscle fatigue). An environment is provided that enables systematic and comprehensive capabilities through integration of its components.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Patent Application No. 15 / 247,622, filed August 25, 2016, which claims U.S. Provisional Benefit of Application No. 62 / 211,281, which is hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] Apparatuses, systems and methods for motor skill analysis, motor skill enhancement, and motor cues using decomposed motor elements for modeling and analysis are disclosed. Background technique [0004] Humans rely on motor skills to perform everyday tasks, from movements that are critical to our autonomy to more specialized domains that require highly fine motor skills. Professional players, musicians, surgeons, and even elite amateurs require thousands of hours of systematic and intensive training and consistent training to maintain a high level of skill. Even simple everyday behaviors require complex coordination of a range of processes, from sensing and motor control to perceptio...

Problems solved by technology

Fourth, movement is complex

The main disadvantage of these products is that the analysis is based on outcome variables (referred to as outcome knowledge in the human skills literature) and thus does not provide actionable information that can be directly used for training
