An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In the following description, unless otherwise specified, “running” includes walking motion.

FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a traveling motion evaluation support system to which an embodiment of the present invention is applied.

As shown in the figure, the running motion evaluation support system includes a pair of shoes 10 and a behavior analysis device 50.

The shoe 10 is an athletic shoe in this embodiment, but may be a mountain climbing shoe, boots, sandals, high heels, or the like. The shoe 10 includes a behavior detection device 20 for detecting the behavior of a person wearing the shoe 10 at the time of running inside the shoe 10 (for example, the sole). However, its appearance, weight, center of gravity, etc. are designed to be equivalent to ordinary shoes.

FIG. 2 is a configuration diagram of the behavior detection apparatus 20. The behavior detection apparatus 20 is divided into a configuration arranged in a shoe for a left foot and a configuration arranged in a shoe for a right foot.

The configuration of the behavior detection apparatus 20 arranged on the left foot shoe is a main control unit 21 that is a central unit that performs various processes, two gyro sensors 22LF and 22LB, and a right foot shoe communication IF 23R. A communication IF 23L that mediates exchange of information, a clock 25 that generates date and time, an input / output IF (interface) 26, a switch 27, a storage device 28, and the like. As shown in FIG. 1, a gyro sensor 22LF is built in the toe side of the shoe sole of the shoe for the left foot, and a gyro sensor 22LB is built in the heel side, and the other configuration 12 is built in a predetermined position of the shoe sole. The switch 27 is arranged at a position where the user can easily operate, for example, on the heel surface.

The input / output IF 26 mediates exchange of information with an external device. For example, information stored in the storage device 28 (behavior information 110 that is an output of each sensor) is sent to the behavior analysis device 50.

The configuration of the behavior detecting device 20 arranged on the right foot shoe is two gyro sensors 22RF, 2
2RB, a communication IF 23L for shoes for the left foot, and a communication IF 23R that mediates transmission / reception of information. As shown in FIG. 1, a gyro sensor 22RF is built in the toe side of the shoe sole of the right foot shoe, and a gyro sensor 22RB is built in the heel side, as in the shoe for the left foot, and the communication IF 23R is a predetermined position on the shoe sole. Built in. The sensors 22RF and 22RB incorporated in the right foot shoe are controlled by the main control unit 21 via the communication IFs 23R and 23L.

Each of the gyro sensors 22LF, 22LB, 22RF, and 23RB is a triaxial gyro sensor and detects an angular velocity in a triaxial (x, y, z) direction. The gyro sensors 22h and 22g are, for example, triaxial vibration type micro gyro sensors.

Note that the sensors on the toe side and heel side are bent on the shoe sole during driving (
(Flexure and twist). The shoe sole bends depending on how you step and how to apply the center of gravity. By arranging the sensors at the parts where the positional relationship changes due to bending (toe side and heel side), it is possible to detect the behavior of the foot during running more accurately. Therefore, depending on the type of shoe and the softness of the sole, the gyro sensor may be installed in a portion where the positional relationship changes without being limited to the toe side or the heel side.

The behavior detection apparatus 20 configured as described above includes a computer including a central processing unit (CPU), a memory as a work area, a ROM storing a program, a communication interface, and the like. The function of the main control unit 21 is achieved by executing a program loaded into the memory by the CPU. However, the function of the main control unit 21 may be realized by hardware. The storage device 28 may be a removable portable recording medium such as a memory card or an IC card. Various settings may be performed via a remote control capable of wireless communication.

As shown in FIG. 1, the shoe 10 may further include a display device 13 and a speaker 14 connected to the input / output IF 26 of the behavior detection device 20. These will be described later.

The behavior analysis device 50 performs a process of analyzing and evaluating the behavior of the shoe 10 during running based on the information collected by the behavior detection device 20.

FIG. 3 is a functional configuration diagram of the behavior analysis apparatus 50. The behavior analysis device 50 includes a main control unit 51, a behavior evaluation unit 52, and an input / output IF 54. The main control unit 51 is a central unit that performs various processes. For example, when various requests are received from the user via the input device, another function unit is instructed to perform processing according to the request.

The behavior evaluation unit 52 performs processing for evaluating the behavior information 110 stored in the history information 55.
For example, using the model behavior data 150 to be described later, the traveling speed and the expected stride are obtained.
In addition, the behavior data at the time of traveling are compared, and the difference is obtained and output. Further, the behavior data stored in the history information 55 is compared with the behavior data of the professional player, and the difference is obtained and output.

The input / output IF 54 mediates exchange of information with an external device. For example, the behavior information 110 (output information of each sensor) collected by the behavior detection device 20 is acquired from the behavior detection device 20 of the shoe 10. Moreover, the evaluation result output by the behavior evaluation unit 52 is output to the display device. I / O IF
54 includes a wireless communication device, and can exchange information with the behavior detection device 20 wirelessly. Further, the input / output IF 54 includes these reading devices when the storage device 28 of the behavior detection device 20 is a portable recording medium such as an IC card or a memory card.

The behavior analysis device 50 can be configured by a general-purpose personal computer including a CPU, a memory serving as a work area, a ROM and HDD that store various programs and data, a communication interface that communicates with external devices, and a bus that connects these. . The behavior analysis device 50
It is connected to input devices such as a keyboard and mouse, and output devices such as a display device. Each component and function of the behavior analysis apparatus 50 is achieved by executing a predetermined program loaded into the memory by the CPU.

<Description of Operation> Next, the operation of the traveling operation evaluation support system configured as described above will be described. First, regarding the collection process of the behavior information 110 of the behavior detection device 20 of the shoe 10,
This will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

When the switch 27 is turned on by the user, the main control unit 21 of the behavior detection device 20 starts measurement with the four gyro sensors 22LF, 22LB, 22RF, and 22RB (S12).
). Then, while performing the measurement, the switch OFF is monitored, and when it is turned OFF (S13
Y), the measurement is terminated, the measurement results up to that point are stored in the storage device 28 (S14), and the flow of FIG. 4 is terminated.

FIG. 5 shows the behavior information 110 accumulated in the storage device 28 of the behavior detection device 20. In S14 of FIG. 4, the main control unit 21 adds the record 111 to the behavior information 110, and in the added record 111, a code (record ID) 112 for identifying the record, a code for identifying the shoe (shoe ID 113), The recording date and time 114 acquired by the clock 25 and the behavior data 115 including the output from each sensor are stored.

In the behavior data 115, as shown in FIG.
Left foot shoe gyro sensor 22LF, 2 at every elapsed time 122
3LB detection results 123 and 124 for 2 LB and gyro sensor 22RF for shoe for right foot 22RF
The detection results 125 and 126 for each of the three axes of 2RB are stored.

In this way, each time the switch 27 is turned ON / OFF and there is a traveling operation, the record 111 is added to the behavior information 110.

  Next, the operation of the behavior analysis apparatus 50 will be described.

The input / output IF 54 of the behavior analysis device 50 is connected to the behavior detection device 20 of the shoe 10 via a wireless device.
Thus, the accumulated behavior information 110 is acquired and stored in the history information 55.

Next, a case where an evaluation request for traveling operation is received from the user will be described. The behavior evaluation unit 2 performs, for example, the following processing according to the type of request.

(1) Display of Traveling Operation of Specific Record FIG. 7 shows a processing flow in such a case. The behavior evaluation unit 53 first causes the user to select the record 111 to be evaluated from the behavior information 110 stored in the history information 55 (S20). At this time, candidates can be narrowed down using the recording date 114 as a key. For example, when an instruction for a recording date / time range is received from the user, the recording date / time 11 falls within the specified range.
A record 111 having 4 is extracted and displayed as a candidate. A selection is accepted from the candidates.

Next, the behavior evaluation unit 52 identifies a model that is the closest to the behavior data 115 of the selected record 111 (S21). Here, in the model behavior data 150, as shown in FIG. 8, the behavior data 152 of the traveling motion is stored for each model ID 151.
The behavior data 152 has the same configuration as the behavior data 115 shown in FIG. The model behavior data 150 is data collected experimentally, and the output of each sensor when various running motions are performed using the shoe 10 is stored as one model for each kind of running motion. The behavior evaluation unit 52 extracts behavior data 152 that most closely approximates the behavior data 115 to be evaluated from the model behavior data 150.

Incidentally, the behavior data 152 of each model in the model behavior data 150 does not need to store data for a long time, and one cycle (for example,
It is only necessary to store average data for the right foot (after the right foot leaves the ground, then land on the ground and then leave again). On the other hand, the behavior data 115 of each record 111 is data over a plurality of periods within the measurement time. Therefore, the behavior evaluation unit 52 obtains the output of each sensor for one cycle by, for example, averaging the values of the sensors of the plurality of cycles in the behavior data 115. Alternatively, it is possible to accept the designation of the time zone to be evaluated from the user, that is, the selection of the range of elapsed time, and obtain the average value of the output of each sensor in the period within the range, and the output of each sensor for one period . The time corresponding to one cycle is, for example, paying attention to the output of one of the axes of the gyro sensor, obtaining the periodicity, and taking the time of one cycle of the obtained periodicity.

And the behavior evaluation part 52 is for 1 period (for example, for the record 111 of evaluation object, for example)
The output of each axis of each sensor is obtained after the right foot leaves the ground, then touches the ground and then leaves again.

Subsequently, for each model, the behavior evaluation unit 52 calculates the value of each axis of each sensor at the same elapsed time for one cycle of the model behavior data 152 and the behavior data 115 to be evaluated. All the differences are obtained, and the model ID 151 in which all the differences are within a predetermined range is specified. When a plurality of models are specified, a model ID 151 that minimizes the sum of differences is further specified. In this way, the model that most closely approximates the behavior data 115 to be evaluated is specified.

Next, the behavior evaluation unit 52 acquires evaluation data corresponding to the model ID identified in S21 from the evaluation model data 160. Here, as shown in FIG. 9, the evaluation data 160 includes a speed 162 and a stride 1 for each model ID 161 (corresponding to the model ID 151).
63, drawing data 164, calorie consumption 165, comments 166, and the like. The evaluation data 160 is created by actually measuring the speed, stride, and calories burned in each model. The drawing data 164 is an image showing the state of the traveling operation. The comment 166 stores a message about the balance between the left and right feet, a comment about the movement of the center of gravity, and a message about what should be done for a better running operation.

Next, as shown in FIG. 10, the behavior evaluation unit 52 displays various information on the screen 510 of the display device using the evaluation data selected in S22. For example, using the drawing data 164 as the traveling motion image 521, the state of the traveling motion is displayed by animation or the like.
Fast forward and rewind, quick playback and slow playback may be accepted and executed. Further, the traveling speed 162, the stride 163, the calorie consumption 165, and the comment 166 are displayed as the additional information 530. At this time, as the identification information 520 of the selected record 111, the shoe ID 113 and the recording date 114 of the evaluation target record 111 may be displayed.

(2) Comparison of a plurality of behavior data In this case, the behavior evaluation unit 52 causes the user to select a plurality of (for example, two) records 111 from the behavior information 110 accumulated in the history information 55. Then, the above-described evaluation data is selected for each selected record 111. Furthermore, FIG.
As shown in FIG. 4, the identification information 520a, 520b of each selected record 111,
The traveling operation images 521a and 521b are displayed. Further, a difference (speed difference, stride difference) may be obtained and displayed as difference information 531. Note that the behavior evaluation unit 52 may display a plurality of running motion images side by side, or may display a predetermined part (for example, the position of the head or the waist) so as to overlap each other.

(3) Comparison with the professional player's running motion The behavior evaluating unit 52 uses the professional player data 170 to display a comparison between the evaluation target running motion and the professional player's running motion, as shown in FIG. You can also Professional player data 17
0, as shown in FIG. 13, for each player ID 171, profile 172 and model ID
173. Profile 172 includes the name of the professional player, achievements, height,
It also includes information about physique such as weight. Model ID 173 is model behavior data 15
This corresponds to the model ID 151 of 0 and the model ID 161 of the evaluation data 160.

The behavior evaluation unit 52 causes the user to select the evaluation target record 111 from the behavior information 110. Then, the above-described evaluation data is selected for the selected record 111, and as in (1) above, as shown in FIG. 12, the identification information 520, the traveling motion image 521 are displayed.
The additional information 530 is displayed. Further, the user is made to select the professional player ID 171 from the professional player data 170 using the name of the profile 172 as a key. Then, evaluation data corresponding to the selected professional player ID 171 is specified from the evaluation data 160 using the model ID 161 (model ID 173) as a key. Then, the running motion image 522 of the professional player is displayed using the drawing data 164 of the specified evaluation data. Also, the difference between the evaluation data of the evaluation target record 111 and the evaluation data of the designated professional player (
(Speed difference, step difference) may be obtained and displayed as difference information 531. Note that the behavior evaluation unit 52 may display the two traveling motion images side by side or may display the predetermined parts (for example, the positions of the head and the waist) overlapping each other.

(4) Identification of approximated professional player It is also possible to identify and display a professional player who performs the most approximate running motion. For example,
The behavior evaluation unit 52 extracts the professional player's behavior data 152 from the model behavior data 150 using the professional player data 170, and evaluates the extracted behavior data 152 from the extracted behavior data 152 in the same manner as in (1) above. The closest approximation to the target behavior data 115 is specified. Then, the professional player ID 171 corresponding to the model ID 151 of the identified behavior data 152 is specified from the professional player data 170. And as shown in FIG. 12, the information 5 which shows the recent professional player
35 is displayed. At this time, the profile 172 of the professional player may be displayed. Then, the user can know the physique difference from himself.

As mentioned above, although some processes of the behavior evaluation part 52 were demonstrated, the behavior data 115 can be evaluated and analyzed from various viewpoints according to the request | requirement from a user besides these.
The data used for evaluation and analysis is not limited to the model behavior data 150, the evaluation table data 160, and the professional player data 170.

  The embodiment of the present invention has been described above.

According to the above-described embodiment, it is possible to detect in detail the manner of steps during walking / running and know the walking / running operation. Because shoes are bent and twisted depending on the material of the sole,
In order to establish an appropriate form for walking and running, the position of the toes and heels during walking and running is important, but according to this embodiment, sensors are installed on the toe side and the heel side. Therefore, it is possible to detect and evaluate the walking / running operation more accurately regardless of the bending or twisting of the shoe sole.

  The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. Below, the modification of the said embodiment is demonstrated.

<Modification: Measurement timing>
In the above embodiment, the measurement period of each sensor is the period from ON to OFF of the switch 27, but is not limited to this. For example, a predetermined period after the switch 27 is turned on may be set as the measurement time.

Moreover, you may make it the main control part 21 of the behavior detection apparatus 20 determine the range recorded on a record, always measuring with each sensor. For example, when a traveling operation is performed, a time range to be stored as one record is determined, and the output of the sensor measured in that time range is stored in the record 111 as one traveling operation. The recording time range can be set in the same manner as the measurement time described above.

Further, the recording time may be set when the traveling operation is performed for a predetermined time. For example, when the value output from the gyro sensor continuously changes, it is determined that the vehicle is running and the recording start time is determined. Further, when the value output from the gyro sensor does not continuously change, it is determined that the traveling is stopped, and the recording end time is set.

<Variation: Shoes with output device>
As shown in FIG. 14, the behavior detection device 20 may have the function of the behavior analysis device 50 described above. That is, the behavior detection device 20 includes a main control unit 21, a gyro sensor 22LF,
22LB, 22RF, 22RB, a clock 25, an input / output IF (interface) 26,
A storage device 28 and a behavior evaluation unit 52 are provided. Further, the history information 55 is stored in the storage device 28.
Model behavior data 150, evaluation data 160, and professional player data 170 are stored. The processing performed by each functional unit is the same as that in the above-described embodiment. However, the shoe 10 cannot have a display that a personal computer has.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 1, the shoe 10 includes a small display device 13 and a speaker 14 on the top surface of the toe side, for example, as an output device. The small display device 13 may be capable of displaying characters or may be a light emitting element such as an LED (a laser light emitting diode).

Various settings of the behavior detection apparatus 20 may be performed by a wireless remote controller. For example, the remote controller holds the updated model behavior data 150 and professional player data 170 in its own storage device, and transmits it to the input / output IF 26 of the behavior detection device 20 in response to a request from the user. The main control unit 21 stores the received information in the storage device 28.

  FIG. 15 is a flowchart of the operation of the behavior detection apparatus 20 when the traveling operation is performed.

The main controller 21 performs behavior information storage processing in the same manner as the flow of FIG. 4 (S31).
As a result, as shown in FIG. 5, the record 111 is added to the behavior information 110 and the behavior data 115 is stored.

Next, the behavior evaluation unit 52 performs the behavior data 11 obtained in S31 in the same manner as described above.
5 is evaluated (S31, S33). And an evaluation result is output via the output devices 13 and 14 (S34). The method of evaluation here and the way of outputting the evaluation differ depending on the setting method.

(1) Output of evaluation information In this case, the behavior evaluation unit 52 obtains data for evaluation of the behavior data 115 to be evaluated by the above-described method, and sets the speed 162, the stride 163, the calorie consumption 165, the comment 166, and the like. Output with the output device. For example, the speaker 14 utters by voice. Alternatively, the image is displayed on the small display device 13. When the small display device 19 is a light emitting element, it is lit in a predetermined mode (color or number of blinks) according to the output contents.

(2) Comparison with Past Traveling Operation When the behavior evaluation unit 52 performs a traveling operation and newly generates behavior data 115, the behavior evaluation unit 52 compares it with past behavior data 115 stored in the history information 55. For example, the most recorded date 1
14 searches for another new record 111, obtains evaluation data for both, and obtains the degree of difference (difference) between the speed 162 and the step length 163. And according to a difference degree, a predetermined message is uttered by voice with the speaker 14. For example, if the current one is slow, say "The speed has slowed". Alternatively, the image is displayed on the small display device 13. Or
It is lit in a predetermined mode (color or number of blinks) according to the output contents.

(3) Running performance and comparison of professional player When the running motion is performed and the behavior data 115 is newly generated, the behavior evaluation unit 52 compares the behavior data 152 with the professional player registered in the professional player data 170. To do. In addition, when the behavior data 152 of a some professional player exists, it compares with what was previously selected by the user. For example, newly generated behavior data 115 and professional player behavior data 152
For each of the evaluation data, the degree of difference (difference) between the speed 162 and the step length 163 is obtained.
Ask for. And according to a difference degree, a predetermined message is uttered by voice with the speaker 14. For example, when the speed is high, the voice is "It is faster than the speed of professional player ***". Alternatively, the image is displayed on the small display device 13. Alternatively, it is lit in a predetermined mode (color or number of blinks) according to the output contents.

(4) Identifying a professional player with an approximate running action When the running action is performed and new behavior data 115 is generated, the behavior evaluating unit 52 generates the most approximate behavior data 152 in the same manner as described above. The player ID of the corresponding professional player is specified. Then, referring to the professional player data 170, the name is acquired from the profile 172, and for example, the speaker 14 utters “It is close to the running motion of the professional player **”. Alternatively, the image is displayed on the small display device 13. In this way, the player can know the approximate professional player every time the running motion is performed.

<Modification: Calculation of left and right balance>
The behavior evaluation unit 52 can obtain the balance between the left and right foot steps by using the difference in the outputs of the left and right gyro sensors.

The movements of the left and right feet are shifted by a half cycle. For example, in walking, when the right foot lands, the left foot leaves the ground, and when the left foot lands, the right foot leaves the ground. If the left and right foot steps are well balanced, the right foot gyro sensor output and the left foot gyro sensor output are
It should match the front-rear direction and the left-right symmetry direction with a half-cycle shift. In order to use this principle, the corresponding gyro sensors on the left and right sides are arranged so that the three axes are the left and right objects, respectively.

When requested to evaluate the left / right balance, the behavior evaluation unit 52 outputs the output of each axis of each left gyro sensor from the behavior data 115 of the evaluation target record 111 and each right side shifted by a half cycle. Obtain the average of the difference from the output of each axis of the gyro. And the average value is
Output as a balance level. Here, the smaller the balance level, the better the balance.

  In the above, some modified examples have been described.

In addition, although the shoe of the said embodiment and the modification is provided with the two triaxial gyro sensors in a toe and a heel, you may provide the gyro sensor in another site | part. Further, an acceleration sensor (for example, a triaxial acceleration sensor) may be provided. The output of the acceleration sensor is
It can be included in the behavior data 115 and used for behavior evaluation.
