Self-learning system for water sport users

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a self-learning system for water sport users which comprises a wearable camera device, a computer and a learning data base. The carrying camera comprises a fixing element, a bearing element and a waterproof camera. The fixing element is disposed on a human body. The bearing element is disposed on the fixing element. The bearing element is bendable and has adjustable length. The waterproof camera is disposed on the bearing element. The waterproof camera shoots human postures of water sport. The waterproof camera transforms image signal to digital signal. The computer receives and processes the digital signal, and then through a water-sport learning module assesses human posture as well as provides swimming information. The present disclosure also relates to a self-learning system for water sport users which comprises a carrying camera, a computer and a learning network platform.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present disclosure relates to an assisting tool for learning water sport; in particular, to a self-learning system for water sport users.[0003]2. Description of Related Art[0004]Swimming is a popular sport enjoyed by the public. Typically in swimming, correct postures and movements have key effect on raising swimming technique and swimming speed. If the swimming movements are incorrect, the postures are poorly coordinated, leading to an increase in resistance during swimming and inefficiency of the exerted force to push forward, not only wasting unnecessary energy but also limiting the speed of the swimmer.[0005]In order to improve swimming techniques, a swimmer typically hires a swimming instructor to raise the swimming technique and swimming speed. During the instruction by the swimming instructor, the swimming instructor can instruct the swimmer on correct swimming postures and techniques, and correct the incorre...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present patent describes a system that allows water sport users to record their own movements and postures during swimming and assess them using a computer and learning software. The system includes a wearable camera device with a flexible bearing element that can be adjusted to fit different users. The camera device films the user's movements using a waterproof camera and sends the footage to a computer for processing. The computer analyzes the recorded images and provides correct information on swimming. Users can also connect to an internet platform and compare their movements with those of professionals to learn more about swimming. This system helps users improve their swimming skills and attain a higher level of performance.

Problems solved by technology

If the swimming movements are incorrect, the postures are poorly coordinated, leading to an increase in resistance during swimming and inefficiency of the exerted force to push forward, not only wasting unnecessary energy but also limiting the speed of the swimmer.

Afterward, when the swimmer practices by himself or herself without the instruction of a professional instruction on the side, the swimmer cannot tell if his or her postures are correct or not during swimming.
