Easy Instruction video : http://NewtonJapan.com/LessonPad ■Videos You can choose video from camera roll or from video app. Recording feature also available. You can record videos and use them instantly. There's useful Grids on a recoding screen to measure camera angle. ■Compare two videos You can choose two videos to compare with. - Two players movement. - Today's video and yesterday's. Compare them side-by-side position or Layered view. Playback them together in slow motion, then you must find some good technics behind them. ■Slow motion Video can be played in slow motion. Using thumb-track bar, you can change playback speed precisely, and play slow forward and slow backward as you like. ■Movement analysis The markings can be drawn on the screen while the video plays in slow motion, or while playing step by step. This option can be used to easily point out ideal forms or movement. You can draw straight lines using two fingers in order to find out the axis of your body movement. ■Thumbnails Any video can be divided into thumbnails. You can choose one of them to jump to that point of the video. ■Pens A choice of seven different line colors at the bottom of the screen. Eraser also available. 3 line thicknesses are available to choose from. Just touch current pen to change thickness. All marks can be erased by tapping on the trash can icon. ■Screen snap shot After marking the video, a still picture can be taken of the final result. The marked-up picture can be saved as new item in camera roll on iPad. You can send it by email. To take marked-up picture, press home button and power button at the same time (iPad's original function). ■TV Output The iPad originally has functionality to output its display to TV screen (iPad2 or later). So you can share your drawing with your team or friend using huge screen while meetings. You need a cable to connect your iPad to a TV or a Projector.

■Overview■ Nordic Angle is a smartphone application developed in collaboration with Athletic Training Laboratory at Waseda University (instructed by Professor Norikazu Hirose) and S-CADE. Co., Ltd. AI automatically detects landmarks at the hip, knee, and ankle joints. Based on the detected landmarks, it calculates the break-point angle and the hip flexion angle at the break-point during the Nordic hamstring exercise. A smaller break-point angle indicates that the upper body can lean further forward, suggesting stronger eccentric hamstring strength. Therefore, regular measurement of the break-point angle suggests that a smaller value is associated with a lower risk of hamstring injury. ■How to use■ 1. The device is placed about 3 m to the left and right of the person, with the participant centered in the frame. 2. When the person is ready, record a video at the setting (60 fps). 3. The person leans forward as slowly as possible from a kneeling position, and then leans forward as far as possible. 4. Please trim it short from the initial and final parts of the motion of the person. 6. Open Nordic Angle and select a video. 7. The analysis zone will be restricted to the participant only, excluding the partner holding the participant's ankles. ■Notes■ ・The entire body of the person should be shown. ・Loose-fitting clothing will reduce detection accuracy.
