SportsCoachingDelay vs PoseAnalyzer Motion Analysis

Sports coaching DELAY can display input video form the camera of iOS device with a preset delay. It includes not only delay but also several useful functions for sports based on our much experience. 1) Delayed playback + Camera settings Each sport requires different motion speed, slow or very fast. The condiotion to play are also different, outdoor or indoor. Therefore Sports Coaching DELAY provides the following function to adapt to several contions. --->Shutter speed configurations --->Exposure adjustment --->Zoom function --->Flip horizontal function 2) Delayed playback + Drawing The drawing function is useful in checking the motion. Ex.) Draw the line as reference level. Drag the rectangular or circle for remarkable point. Put the grid line to analize the motion in detail. 3) Delayed playback + Split screen It may be difficult to analize detail motion in only repeat playback mode. In such a case, putting the some still image on split screen is very useful. The split number in the screen, period between each still image are changable. It makes easy to feedback and self training depending on each sports. 4) Delayed playback + Video storage (Option) Video data in the memory for delay can be saved. You can utilize remarkable data in several purpose such as using in another app.

PoseAnalyzer is a motion analysis app for physical education and sports coaching. From videos you shoot on your iPhone or iPad, it computes a person's skeleton, joint angles and center of mass (CoM) on the spot. All analysis runs on the device. Videos and data are never sent to external servers. ■ Shoot, select, analyze ・Record a trial and it appears in the list right away. ・Choose the range to analyze (start and end), then tap the box around each person you want to analyze (you can pick several). ・Only the selected people are tracked, so others in the frame never get mixed up. ・Analysis runs in the background. You can watch videos or record the next trial while you wait. ・If you stop an analysis midway, you can still see the results so far. ■ Quick result right after recording Skeletons estimated live during recording are shown with graphs as soon as you stop. When you analyze every frame later, they are replaced with the accurate result. ■ Result correction Fixes swapped left/right legs, removes outlier points, fills hidden points from neighboring frames, and smooths the motion. You can switch back to the uncorrected result at any time to compare. ■ What you can see ・Skeleton (26 Halpe-26 keypoints, including toes and heels) ・Joint angles (elbows, knees, shoulders and hips, left and right; knees are measured on the back side) ・Center of mass and its trajectory ・Graphs: show one or two of position, velocity, acceleration and joint angles (for the CoM or any keypoint) ・Frame stepping (also by tapping the screen edges), 0.1–2.0× speed, range looping, pinch to zoom ■ Real-length calibration Calibrate with two points of known length (for height: top of the head and the feet) or with the four corners of a rectangle on the floor and its diagonal, and position, velocity and acceleration are shown in m and m/s. ■ Center of mass fitted to the subject The CoM is calculated with body segment parameters that match the subject's age group, build and sex. Children's heads are relatively heavy, so adult parameters would place their CoM too low. ・Ages 3–15: Yokoi et al. (1986) (by build; by sex from age 9) ・Ages 16–18 and adults: Ae et al. (1992) ・Older adults: Okada et al. (1996) You can change the subject for each trial after analysis, and the CoM is recalculated immediately. ■ Export ・Video with the skeleton overlaid (saved to Photos), optionally with graphs and the original audio ・CSV (one row per frame: 26 keypoints with confidence, 8 joint angles, CoM) ・JSON (video information and data for every frame) ・The original video ■ Camera ・30 / 60 / 120 / 240 fps (as supported by the device) ・Standard and ultra-wide lenses, manual focus ・Live skeleton and CoM while shooting (up to 3 people) ・Delayed playback (shows the scene from 3–20 seconds ago, so athletes can check their own movement right away) ■ About the measurements Angles and the CoM are measured in the image plane as seen by the camera. Motion toward or away from the camera is not reflected. Real-length calibration is an approximation that assumes motion in a plane parallel to the camera. If you use the values for research or assessment, please keep these properties in mind. ■ Privacy All videos and results are stored on your device. No account is required, and nothing is sent to external servers.
