Description

  The present invention relates to a motion motion teaching device for teaching motion motion performed by a subject, and a play facility including the motion motion teaching device.

  Some amusement facilities are designed to allow specific sports (for example, baseball, golf, bowling, etc.) for the purpose of improving athletic skills and recreation. Taking baseball as an example, this is a facility where a player can throw a baseball ball in the pitching room or a player can batting a baseball ball thrown from a throwing machine in the batting room. Similarly, when golf is taken as an example, a facility where a player can perform a golf swing is applicable, and when bowling is taken as an example, a facility where a player can throw a bowling ball is applicable.

  Conventionally, an example of a technique related to a pitching system configured to provide a realistic feeling reminiscent of an actual baseball game in the above-described amusement facility has been disclosed (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In this technique, a light beam is applied from a light emitting means to a baseball ball thrown from a pitcher's mound, and the irradiation light of the light beam is picked up by an imaging means, and the horizontal position and vertical position of the pitched baseball are By detecting the position, the speed, course, ball power, etc. of the baseball are displayed on the display device.

  Moreover, in order to correct a player's golf swing, an example of a technique for preventing a hit ball by retracting a golf ball when there is a foam abnormality in the golf swing is disclosed (for example, see Patent Document 1). This technique is configured to edit and set the form reference line in advance by the reference line edit setting means, and to retract the golf ball when the form at the time of swing is detected to be abnormal by the form abnormality detection instruction mechanism. ing.

JP 2008-086524 A JP 2002-045455 A

  However, even if the speed, course, ball power, etc. of the baseball ball are displayed by the technique of Patent Document 1, or the technique of Patent Document 2 indicates that the form at the time of swing is abnormal, In the above-mentioned example, it is not known where there is a defect in pitching motion or golf swing.

  That is, in the technique of Patent Document 1, the result after the pitch (that is, the speed of the baseball, the course, the ball power, etc.) is merely displayed. For this reason, it is not directly understood how to change the pitching motion in order to achieve the result desired by the player. Further, in the technique of Patent Document 2, since the golf ball is retracted and cannot be hit, even if it is known that there is an abnormality in the golf swing, it is not directly understood how to change the golf swing. Therefore, a player may understand the shortcomings of motion motion only after throwing and swinging several times while changing the motion motion based on his / her own thoughts. .

  The present invention has been made in view of these points, and the first object is to clarify the shortcomings of the motion motion of the subject (player in the above example) based on the difference in motion motion from the reference person. And providing a motion motion teaching device capable of teaching (advice) what kind of motion motion should be used. The second object is to provide a play facility that can provide a sense of realism and teach motion motion.

The teaching content specifying means for specifying the teaching content, and a notification means for notifying the teaching content specified by the teaching content specifying means. According to this configuration, the teaching content corresponding to the difference in motion motion between the target person and the reference person is notified. The teaching content is related to motion motion, and includes, for example, “lower left (right) shoulder a little more” and “slightly upper body”. The subject who recognizes such teaching contents can easily understand the motion motion correction method, that is, the motion motion to be changed.

  The “target person” corresponds to, for example, a player or a sports player at a play facility. The “exercise motion” is arbitrary as long as it is a motion performed when playing a specific sport (for example, baseball, golf, bowling, etc.). For example, a pitching motion or a batting motion is applicable for baseball, a swing motion is applicable for golf, and a throwing motion is applicable for bowling. The “reference person” may be arbitrarily set as long as it is a person skilled in the above-mentioned specific sports, and is preferably a professional player or a person who has acquired a predetermined skill level (for example, first grade of the examination). The “imaging means” is arbitrary as long as it is a device capable of capturing motion motion, and includes, for example, a CCD camera, a CMOS camera, a video camera, a still camera (preferably capable of continuous shooting), and the like. The “recording means” may be any medium as long as it can record at least the reference person's imaging information and teaching related information. No), flash memory, RAM, and the like.

Further, the information processing apparatus further includes information scaling means for scaling one of the target person imaging information and the reference person imaging information. Here, “physique” means a scale indicating the size of the body, and includes, for example, height, weight, shoulder width, reach (arm length), and the like. According to this configuration, even if the physique is greatly different, such as an adult and a child, one information is scaled so that the physique is equivalent, so appropriate teaching for correcting motion motion regardless of the physique Will be able to do. As will be described later, the information scaling means may scale the subject imaging information so that the time required from the start to the end of the motion motion is the same between the subject and the reference person.

  The invention according to claim 5 is characterized in that the notification means displays a code corresponding to the teaching content together with an image or video of the subject included in the subject imaging information. “Code” corresponds to, for example, a symbol or a design. According to this configuration, when the difference from the reference person is taught, the direction, degree (size), and the like can be displayed using, for example, a vector or an arrow. Since the subject can visually grasp the direction, degree, etc., it becomes easy to correct the motion motion.

  Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[Embodiment 1]
Embodiment 1 is an example applied to a baseball pitching motion, which is one of the motion motions, and will be described with reference to FIGS. In the present embodiment, the simple term “ball” means a baseball ball.

  First, FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating a configuration example of a motion motion teaching apparatus. The motion motion teaching apparatus 10 shown in FIG. 1 includes an imaging unit 11, a position calculation unit 12, a recording medium 13, a teaching content specifying unit 17, a notification unit 19, a transmission storage unit 1A, and the like. Among these elements, at least the position calculation means 12, the teaching content identification means 17, and the transmission storage means 1A each implements individual functions by executing corresponding computer programs.

  The imaging means 11 is a camera that captures a pitching motion performed by a person to be imaged (that is, a subject person Ho, a reference person Hs, or the like), and uses, for example, a CCD camera that can output digital imaging data. The number of the imaging means 11 is arbitrary, and may be composed of one unit or may be composed of two or more units. In this embodiment, an example in which five cameras (that is, a planar camera 11a, a front camera 11b, a rear camera 11d, and side cameras 11e and 11f) are configured as shown in FIG. 2 will be described.

  The position calculation means 12 determines at least the position of the head, arm or shoulder, waist, knee or ankle (two-dimensional position or three-dimensional position) for the person to be imaged based on the information captured by the imaging means 11 (that is, imaging data). Ask. Specifically, the two-dimensional position of the position marker worn by the person to be imaged based on information captured by the imaging means 11 composed of two or more units (namely, imaging data concerning the plane, front, back, and side surfaces). Find the 3D position. In addition, since the technique which calculates | requires a two-dimensional position and a three-dimensional position based on the position marker which appeared in the image and the image | video is already known, detailed illustration and description are abbreviate | omitted.

  The recording medium 13 records reference person imaging information 14 based on information obtained by imaging the pitching motion performed by the reference person Hs by the imaging unit 11 and teaching related information 16 indicating the relation between the difference information and the teaching content. Furthermore, the subject imaging information 15 based on information obtained by imaging the pitching motion performed by the subject Ho with the imaging unit 11 may be recorded, or temporary data generated in the course of processing may be recorded. For example, a hard disk is used as the recording medium 13. Specific examples of the reference person imaging information 14, the target person imaging information 15, and the teaching related information 16 will be described later.

  The teaching content specifying unit 17 includes an information scaling unit 18, which obtains difference information indicating a difference in pitching motion by comparing the subject imaging information 15 and the reference person imaging information 14 in time series, and is recorded on the recording medium 13. The teaching content corresponding to the difference information is specified with reference to the teaching related information 16. Specifically, first, difference information is obtained for the position of each position marker worn by the subject Ho or the reference person Hs. In the difference information, it is only necessary to know the positional shift of each part (particularly the main part) between the subject Ho and the reference person Hs. For example, the relative distance of the corresponding position marker, the maximum value of the distance, and the like are applicable. Then, the teaching content corresponding to the obtained difference information is specified with reference to the teaching related information 16.

  Note that as the subject imaging information 15, information captured by the imaging unit 11 may be used directly, or information temporarily recorded on the recording medium 13 may be used indirectly. On the other hand, the reference person imaging information 14 uses information recorded on the recording medium 13. In addition, the information scaling unit 18 determines one of the subject imaging information 15 and the reference person imaging information 14 so that the physiques of the subject Ho and the reference person Hs match as much as possible before obtaining the above-described difference information. To scale the information.

  The notifying means 19 notifies the teaching content specified by the teaching content specifying means 17. The notification means 19 is arbitrary as long as it can notify the subject Ho or the like, and for example, a display device is used. This display device may be of any type, such as a liquid crystal display device, a plasma display device, an LED display device, or an EL display device. In addition, it does not matter whether or not a speaker is built in like a television.

  The transmission storage unit 1 </ b> A has a function of performing one or both of transmission and storage for at least a part of information included in the subject imaging information 15 and the reference person imaging information 14 recorded in the recording medium 13. Furthermore, when a certain condition (for example, a privilege granting condition or a transmission storage condition) is satisfied, the imaging information captured by the imaging unit 11 is recorded on the recording medium 13 and recorded on the recording medium 13 every time a pitching motion is performed. In addition, a function of storing one or more pieces of imaging information in the portable storage medium Rm may be added.

  “At least a part included in the target person imaging information 15 and the reference person imaging information 14” includes, for example, imaging information (image or video) captured by the imaging unit 11, position information obtained based on the imaging information, and the like. Applicable. Transmission is performed to the target person transmission destination Rs, and storage is performed to the portable storage medium Rm. This transmission or storage is performed when a transmission storage condition described later is satisfied (see step S18 in FIG. 3). The target person transmission destination Rs is a transmission destination capable of transmitting information through a communication line, and corresponds to, for example, a mail address or an IP address. The portable storage medium Rm is arbitrary as long as it is a portable storage medium, and corresponds to, for example, a flash memory (for example, an SD memory or a USB memory) or a silicon hard disk (for example, an SSD). As a drive device used when storing information in the portable storage medium Rm, a drive device provided in the computer may be used, or a single device connected to the computer may be used.

  Next, an example of a facility for receiving an instruction from the subject Ho or imaging a pitching motion as a reference by the reference person Hs, that is, an example of a pitching practice field will be described with reference to FIG. 2A shows a side view, and FIG. 2B shows a plan view. Note that illustration of a computer that realizes the functions of the position calculating means 12, the teaching content specifying means 17, and the like is omitted. As long as the computer can realize these functions, the configuration, type, installation position, and the like are arbitrary. For example, a personal computer or a server is applicable.

  Next, a configuration example of the pitching practice field 20 corresponding to the “exercise space” will be briefly described with reference to FIG. The pitching practice field 20 is provided in a play facility, regardless of whether it is indoors or outdoors. The pitching practice field 20 is provided with a mound 21, a home base 24, and the like on the ground 23 so that the same realistic feeling as an actual baseball field can be obtained. The mound 21 is the same size as the pitcher's mound of the baseball field, and a pitching board 22 is installed. Although batter boxes and catcher boxes installed near the home base 24 are not shown, it is desirable to install them. Behind the home base 24 (the right side of the drawing) is a catching net 25 for catching a ball thrown by the subject Ho or the like, a liquid crystal display device 19a for displaying necessary information on the subject Ho or the like, A measuring device 26 for measuring ball information (for example, speed) of the ball thrown by the subject Ho or the like is installed.

  The ball caught by the catching net 25 is returned using return means. The form of the return means is arbitrary, and it is returned to the mound 21 or its vicinity via the basement or ceiling using a transport device composed of a motor, a belt or the like, or prepared in the vicinity of the liquid crystal display device 19a by a pitching machine. It may be returned directly to the target person Ho or the like. The return means enables the subject Ho and the like to pitch continuously. Moreover, the return means by the latter pitching machine can provide a sense of presence as if it was returned from a catcher.

  The imaging means 11 has five cameras. The flat camera 11a is installed in the ceiling part of the mound 21, and images the subject Ho and the like from the upper side to the lower side. The front camera 11b is installed above the liquid crystal display device 19a and images the subject Ho and the like from the front. The rear camera 11d images the subject Ho from the back of the subject Ho. The side cameras 11e and 11f are installed on the left and right sides of the mound 21, and images the subject Ho and the like from the side. Note that the side cameras 11e and 11f may be configured to use only one of the cameras according to the dominant hand (left hand or right hand) of the subject Ho. In addition, in order to reliably capture the target person Ho moving with the motion motion, it is desirable to have a configuration that can change the posture and follow the movement of the target person Ho.

  An example of teaching the pitching motion performed by the subject Ho in the motion motion teaching apparatus 10 and the pitching practice field 20 configured as described above will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an example of the procedure for the motion motion teaching process, and FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing an example of the procedure for the reference information recording process. Each process shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 is executed by a computer that implements the functions of the position calculation means 12, the teaching content specifying means 17, and the like. 3 corresponds to the position calculation means 12, steps S14 to S17 in FIG. 3 correspond to the teaching content specifying means 17, and step S15 in FIG. 3 corresponds to the information scaling means 18. Equivalent to. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a mounting example of the position marker. FIG. 6 shows a configuration example of the reference person imaging information in a table format, and FIG. 7 shows a configuration example of the teaching related information in a table format. 8 and 9 show application examples of scaling. FIG. 10 shows a display example of the display device.

  In the motion motion teaching process shown in FIG. 3, since the pitching motion of the reference person Hs needs to be recorded first, the reference information recording process shown in FIG. 4 is executed [step S10]. In FIG. 4, the physique of the reference person Hs is input and recorded on the recording medium 13 [step S30]. The reference person Hs corresponds to a person who has skill in baseball, and is preferably a professional player or a person who has acquired a predetermined skill level (for example, first grade of examination). The information input as the physique corresponds to, for example, height, weight, shoulder width, reach (arm length), and the like. The information input in this way is recorded on the recording medium 13 as “physique information” that forms part of the reference person imaging information 14 (see FIG. 6).

  The reference person Hs puts the position markers M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6,... On a predetermined part of the body before throwing with the mound 21 shown in FIG. Each position marker corresponds to a “mounting member”, and is a member for facilitating acquisition of position information of each part (ie, head, arm, shoulder, waist, knee, ankle, etc.). The position marker may be directly or indirectly attached to the body via a member (such as an adhesive or an arm), or a hat, wear, shoes, or the like that is previously attached may be used. In the wearing example shown in FIG. 5, the position marker M1 is worn on the head. Similarly, the position marker M2 is attached to the shoulder, the position marker M3 is attached to the arm (elbow), the position marker M4 is attached to the waist (abdomen), the position marker M5 is attached to the shoulder, and the position marker M6 is attached. Wear on the ankle. Note that FIG. 5 shows an example of mounting on a part that is a main part in a pitching motion, and in general, a part to be attached is different depending on a motion motion according to sports or exercise.

  When the reference person Hs wearing the position markers M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6,... Performs a pitching motion on the mound 21 shown in FIG. 2, the five cameras from the start to the end of the pitching motion. (Step S31). If five cameras are used, the possibility that the position markers M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, and M6 are hidden is reduced, so that each position (two-dimensional position or three-dimensional position) described later can be calculated reliably. In general, two or more cameras are required to calculate a two-dimensional position, and three or more cameras are required to calculate a three-dimensional position, but each position is also calculated with one camera. It is possible. That is, one or more identification markers (for example, a cross shape or an object whose size is measured) are provided on a wall surface or the like in a fixed space such as the pitching practice field 20 to identify the reference person Hs imaged with one camera. Each position is calculated on the basis of the individual size and positional relationship with the marker.

  Based on the image data or video data thus captured, each position (two-dimensional position or three-dimensional position) of the position markers M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6,... Is obtained and recorded on the recording medium 13 [Step S32: Position detecting means]. Here, the positions of the position markers M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6,... Are recorded on the recording medium 13 as “exercise motion information” constituting a part of the reference person imaging information 14 (see FIG. 6). reference). In addition, although the position concerning one pitching motion may be recorded, if the average value of the positions concerning a plurality of pitching motions is recorded, the accuracy is improved.

  The motion motion information shown as an example in FIG. 6 includes time information and position information. The time information is recorded as “0.0 seconds” at the start of the pitching motion, and is recorded every 0.2 seconds until the end of the pitching motion. The position information records the position at the start of the pitching motion, the position every 0.2 seconds, and the position at the end of the pitching motion, corresponding to the time information. The position P1 indicates the position of the position marker M1. Similarly, the position P2 indicates the position of the position marker M2,..., The position P6 indicates the position of the position marker M6. FIG. 6 shows an example of recording a two-dimensional position (X position and Y position), but a three-dimensional position (X position, Y position, and Z position) may be recorded.

  After obtaining the position in step S32, it is determined whether or not to record another [step S33]. That is, when the same reference person Hs further performs a pitching motion and records (YES), the process returns to step S30 indicated by the solid line, and the above-described steps S30 to S33 are repeated. In the case where a pitching motion is performed and recorded in place of another reference person Hs (YES), the process returns to step S31 indicated by a two-dot chain line, and steps S31 to S33 described above are repeated. When the recording is finished (NO), the reference information recording process is returned.

  Returning to the reference information recording process and returning to FIG. 3, the process for the target person Ho is performed. First, identification information, additional information, target person destination Rs and the like are input, or the physique of the target person Ho is input and recorded in the recording medium 13 in the same manner as in step S30 of FIG. 4 described above [step S11]. The target person Ho corresponds to, for example, a player at an amusement facility or a athlete who wants to improve pitching technology. The identification information is arbitrary as long as it is unique information that can be distinguished from other target persons. For example, the membership number of the play facility, the name of the target person Ho, the telephone number, and the like are applicable. The additional information can be arbitrarily set, and corresponds to a code string of an arbitrary number of digits (for example, 3 digits, 4 digits, etc.) configured using alphanumeric characters and symbols (for example, “JB12”), for example. The additional information input in step S11 is included in the information stored in the portable storage medium Rm before the previous time. If the effective period is set, the additional information is input within the effective period.

  After the input and recording, before the pitching is performed with the mound 21 shown in FIG. 2, the subject Ho is positioned with the position markers M1, M2, M3 on the predetermined parts of the body illustrated in FIG. , M4, M5, M6,. In order to prevent an inappropriate teaching content from being notified in accordance with the position error, it is desirable to match the marker mounting site as much as possible. Therefore, the person to be imaged (target person Ho, reference person Hs, etc.) wears the same wear (for example, rental wear) in which the position markers M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6,. It is desirable to throw.

  When the subject Ho wearing the position markers M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6,... Performs a pitching motion on the mound 21 shown in FIG. 2, the pitching motion is performed in the same manner as in step S31 of FIG. The image from the start to the end is taken with five cameras [step S12]. Based on the image data or video data thus captured, each position (two-dimensional position or three-dimensional position) of the position markers M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6,... Is obtained and recorded on the recording medium 13 [Step S13: Position detecting means].

  Next, it is determined whether or not the physique of the subject person Ho and the reference person Hs is within an allowable range [step S14]. In the recording medium 13, the physique information of the reference person Hs is recorded in the reference person imaging information 14, and the physique information of the object person Ho is recorded in the target person imaging information 15 (see FIG. 6). Using these physique information, it is determined whether or not the physique of the subject Ho is within an allowable range on the basis of the physique of the reference person Hs. For example, when “height” is applied as the physique, it is determined that the height difference is within a certain value (for example, 3 [cm]), and is determined to be within the allowable range, and otherwise, it is determined to be outside the allowable range. The same applies when “body weight”, “shoulder width”, or the like is applied as the physique.

  If it is determined in step S14 that the value is within the allowable range (YES), the error can be ignored, and the process proceeds to step S16 described later. On the other hand, when it is determined that it is out of the allowable range (NO), scaling is performed so that the physique of the subject Ho and the physique of the reference person Hs substantially coincide [step S15]. This scaling will be described with reference to FIGS. As in the example described above, a case where “height” is applied as the physique will be described.

  In FIG. 8A, for example, the reference person Hs indicated by a two-dot chain line is an adult (height T2), the target person Ho indicated by a solid line is a child (height T1), and both perform almost the same pitching motion. Suppose you do. As is apparent from the figure, T1 <T2. If both perform a pitching motion according to this assumption, an error shown in FIG. That is, the position of the position marker M1 indicating “head” is separated by a relative distance L2, and the position of the position marker M3 indicating “arm (elbow)” is separated by a relative distance L1. In spite of almost the same pitching motion, the positions of the markers are greatly different, so it is inappropriate to notify the teaching contents according to the distance of each position. Even if the physique is different between the reference person Hs and the target person Ho, it is necessary to notify that “this is a great pitching motion” if the pitching motion is almost the same.

  Therefore, as shown by the change from FIG. 8A to FIG. 8B, the subject Ho is scaled (enlarged) so that the height T1 of the subject Ho substantially matches the height T2 of the reference person Hs. . Specifically, the scaling is targeted for position information of the subject person imaging information 15 shown in FIG. That is, a multiple of the height scaled (for example, 1.5) is multiplied by the position of each position marker and recorded again. In this way, as shown in FIG. 9B, the reference person Hs and the subject person Ho have substantially the same physique, and the pitching motion is almost the same, so that no position error occurs in the position markers M1, M3, and the like.

  Based on the motion motion information of the reference person imaging information 14 and the subject person imaging information 15 (see FIG. 6), the difference information is obtained by comparing the pitching motions of the reference person Hs and the subject person Ho in time series [step S16]. . The difference information is a difference (a linear distance between the positions) of the positions P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6,... Indicating the positions of the position markers M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6,. In the present embodiment, the position marker, time information, position information, and difference value at which the maximum difference has occurred are obtained in order to make it easy to specify the teaching content, but each difference is obtained according to the time information and position information in the table shown in FIG. May be. And based on the difference information calculated | required by step S16, the teaching content is specified with reference to the teaching relevant information 16 recorded on the recording medium 13, and it alert | reports [step S17]. In addition, if privilege provision conditions, such as the input of additional information in step S11 and the number of games at a play facility, are satisfied, the content of the privilege may be included in the notification. The privilege can be arbitrarily set, and includes, for example, a charge discount or an increase in recording area that can be recorded and accumulated in the recording medium 13 for each target person Ho.

  The specific processing content of step S17 will be described with reference to FIGS. First, a configuration example of the teaching related information 16 relating to the pitching motion will be described. The teaching related information 16 shown as an example in FIG. 7 includes difference information and teaching contents corresponding to a position marker (shown as “marker” in the table). The difference information and teaching contents shown in FIG. 7 are merely examples of pitching motion, and “difference information” is used as a condition for specifying (applying) “teaching contents”. The relationship between the difference information and the teaching content is, for example, a comparison between a professional player (reference person Hs) and an amateur player (target person Ho). It is necessary to stipulate from the point of view of whether or not to correct. Therefore, it is desirable to set appropriately based on a lot of data.

  In the teaching-related information 16 shown in the example of FIG. 7, the position marker M <b> 1 is “Please deflect your body a little more” when the ratio of the difference (relative distance of the position marker) to the physique (for example, height) is 2% or more. This means specifying the teaching content. Similarly, for the position marker M2, specify the teaching content “Please lower your shoulders a little more” if the percentage of difference to the physique (eg height) is 2% or more, and if it is 5% or more, “Please lower your shoulders” ”Is specified, and if it is 10% or more, it means that the teaching content“ Please lower your shoulders consciously ”is specified. In step S16 described above, the position marker, time information, and position information where the maximum difference (in other words, the maximum relative distance) has occurred as the difference information are obtained, but the determination method is not limited thereto. That is, as shown in FIG. 10B, which will be described later, the teaching contents are often specified only after the conditions for a plurality of position markers are satisfied. Thus, the teaching content is specified based on the difference information for each position marker.

  An example of notifying the teaching content I1 and the teaching content I2 as a result of specifying the teaching content with reference to the teaching related information 16 of FIG. 7 based on the position marker and the difference information will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 10A shows an example in which the teaching content I1 is displayed, and FIG. 10B shows an example in which the teaching content I2 is displayed. These are merely examples, and there are display examples (not shown) corresponding to the number of teaching contents set in the teaching related information 16.

  In the example shown in FIG. 10A, the position marker M3 of the arm (elbow) differs greatly between the reference person Hs and the subject Ho, although the head and shoulder position markers M1 and M2 are substantially the same position. It is in the state. The position marker M3 of the reference person Hs and the position marker M3 of the subject Ho are separated by a relative distance L3. In other words, it means that the arm (elbow) of the subject person Ho is lower than the reference person Hs. For this reason, the teaching content specifying means 17 specifies the teaching content I1 and displays it on the screen of the liquid crystal display device 19a to display "Please increase your arm swing a little more". At this time, on the liquid crystal display device 19a, the reference person Hs and the target person Ho corresponding to the maximum difference value in the difference information, the speed Sp1 measured by the measuring device 26, and the arrow D1 (sign) separate from the teaching content I1 are provided. It is desirable to be configured to display. This makes it easier for the subject Ho to understand the difference from the reference person Hs and in which direction the arm (elbow) should be moved.

  The example shown in FIG. 10B is a state in which the reference person Hs and the target person Ho are displaced with respect to the head / arm (elbow) / waist / knee position markers M1, M3, M4, and M5. The reference person Hs and the subject Ho have a relative distance L5 for the position marker M1, a relative distance L4 for the position marker M3, a relative distance L6 for the position marker M4, and a relative distance L7 for the position marker M5. Yes. Thus, the difference in the position markers at a plurality of locations means that the entire body is displaced in the vertical direction. For this reason, the teaching content specifying means 17 specifies the teaching content I2 and displays it on the screen of the liquid crystal display device 19a by displaying "Please move your toe landing point away". Similarly to the case of FIG. 10A, the liquid crystal display device 19a includes the reference person Hs and the object person Ho corresponding to the maximum difference value in the difference information, the speed Sp2 measured by the measuring device 26, and the teaching content I2. Is preferably configured to display a separate arrow D2 (sign). In addition, when it does not correspond to the difference information (application conditions) prescribed | regulated to FIG. 10 (A) or FIG. 10 (B), the pitching motion of the reference | standard person Hs and the object person Ho shall substantially correspond substantially. It means that “It ’s a great pitching motion” can be displayed.

  Returning to FIG. 3, when the notification in step S17 is completed, it is determined whether or not the transmission storage condition is satisfied [step S18]. Although the transmission storage condition can be arbitrarily set, for example, the identification information given for each subject Ho is input. If the transmission storage condition is not satisfied (NO), the process proceeds to step S20 described later. On the other hand, when the transmission storage condition is satisfied (YES), the imaging information captured by the imaging unit 11 is recorded and accumulated in the recording medium 13 every time a pitching motion is performed, and through a communication line (for example, the Internet or a dedicated line). One or more pieces of imaging information transmitted to the subject transmission destination Rs and recorded on the recording medium 13 are stored in the portable storage medium Rm [step S19]. Teaching contents and sphere information may be transmitted or stored together with the imaging information. The timing of inputting the target person transmission destination Rs does not matter. For example, the target person Ho or the like may input in the above step S11, or the target person Ho or the like may input after finishing the pitching motion, and the address etc. described on the application form etc. is input on the play facility side. May be. It is desirable that the storage (save) in the portable storage medium Rm is configured so that the imaging information and teaching content desired by the subject Ho can be selected. Further, the information stored in the portable storage medium Rm may be added with additional information that becomes effective when the subject Ho visits the play facility after the next time. The content of this additional information is preferably different each time, and an effective period may be set. In addition, when the privilege grant condition is satisfied, the recording area that can be recorded and accumulated in the recording medium 13 is increased for each target person Ho.

  It is determined whether or not other conditions are to be taught after the condition of step S18 is not satisfied or after transmission or storage in step S19 is performed [step S20]. That is, when the same subject Ho further performs a pitching motion to obtain teaching (YES), the process returns to step S11 indicated by a solid line, and the above-described steps S11 to S17 are repeated. In addition, when a pitching motion is performed in place of another subject and teaching is requested (YES), the process returns to step S12 indicated by a two-dot chain line, and the above-described steps S12 to S17 are repeated. If any subject Ho does not seek teaching (NO), the motion motion teaching process is returned. In addition, when the privilege grant condition is satisfied, for example, a discount for a fee to be paid before or after a pitching motion (including insertion into a money thrower or payment by credit), a privilege ticket (for example, a discount ticket or other Issue amusement machine use tickets).

  According to the first embodiment described above, the following effects can be obtained. First, corresponding to claim 1, the image pickup means 11 (specifically, the planar camera 11a, the front camera 11b, the rear camera 11d and the side cameras 11e and 11f), the recording medium 13, the teaching content specifying means 17, and the notifying means 19 are provided. It was set as the structure (refer FIG. 1). The teaching content specifying unit 17 compares the subject person imaging information 15 and the reference person imaging information 14 in time series to obtain difference information representing a difference in pitching motion, and corresponds to the difference information with reference to the teaching related information 16. The teaching contents are specified (see step S16 in FIG. 3, FIG. 6, and FIG. 7). According to this configuration, in accordance with the difference in pitching motion between the target person Ho and the reference person Hs, the teaching content for teaching (advising) what kind of pitching motion should be used is notified (see FIG. 10). ). The subject Ho who has recognized this teaching content can easily know how to correct the pitching motion, that is, what kind of pitching motion should be used for correction.

  Corresponding to claim 2, it comprises position calculating means 12 for obtaining at least the position of the head, arm or shoulder, waist, knee or ankle based on the information imaged by the imaging means 11 (see FIG. 1), and the position calculating means. 12 (positions P1, P2,..., P6) are included as subject person imaging information 15 or reference person imaging information 14 (see FIG. 6). According to this configuration, by clarifying the difference between the target person Ho and the reference person Hs at the position (for example, an arm or a waist) that is a main part, it is possible to perform appropriate teaching in correcting the pitching motion. .

  Corresponding to claim 3, the imaging means 11 is composed of a front camera 11b, a rear camera 11d, side cameras 11e and 11f, and a planar camera 11a (see FIG. 3). In addition, the position calculation unit 12 obtains a two-dimensional position or a three-dimensional position based on information captured by five cameras (one or more cameras) and includes it in the target person imaging information 15 and the reference person imaging information 14 (See step S13 in FIG. 3, step S32 in FIG. 4, and FIG. 6). According to this configuration, the two-dimensional position or the three-dimensional position can be obtained as accurately as possible. In particular, as the number of the imaging means 11 increases, the situation in which the position markers M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, and M6 are hidden due to the movement of the subject Ho or the like and the position detection cannot be performed is prevented. 2D position or 3D position) can be calculated reliably. Therefore, it becomes possible to clarify the difference in position between the subject person Ho and the reference person Hs and perform appropriate teaching in correcting the pitching motion.

  Corresponding to claim 4, the physique of the subject Ho and the physique of the reference person Hs were recorded on the recording medium 13 (see FIG. 6). The information scaling means 18 is one of the subject imaging information 15 and the reference person imaging information 14 so that the physiques (heights) of the subject Ho and the reference person Hs recorded on the recording medium 13 match as much as possible. Is configured to scale (see step S15 in FIG. 3, FIG. 8, and FIG. 9). According to this configuration, even if the physique is greatly different between adults and children as illustrated in FIGS. 8 and 9, the physique is scaled so as to be equal, so the pitching motion is corrected regardless of the physique. You will be able to give appropriate teaching. In this embodiment, the height is scaled, but the same effect can be obtained by scaling with another physique (shoulder width or the like).

  Corresponding to claim 5, the notification means 19 is configured to display an arrow (symbol) corresponding to the teaching content together with the imaging information (image or video) of the subject Ho included in the subject imaging information 15 (FIG. 3 step S17 and FIG. 10). According to this configuration, the difference from the reference person Hs is indicated by an arrow, such as the direction and degree (size). Since the target person who sees this display can grasp the direction, the degree, and the like, it becomes easy to correct the pitching motion.

  Corresponding to claim 6, at least a part of information included in the subject imaging information 15 and the reference person imaging information 14 recorded in the recording medium 13 is identified by the subject Ho, a play facility, etc. One or both of transmission to and storage on the portable storage medium Rm is performed (see step S19 in FIG. 3). According to this configuration, the subject person Ho and the like can always check his own pitching motion and the teaching contents thereof at any place (for example, at home or the like) based on the subject person imaging information 15 or the like.

  Corresponding to claim 7, when the transmission storage condition is satisfied, the transmission storage unit 1A records and stores the imaging information captured by the imaging unit 11 in the recording medium 13 every time a pitching motion is performed. Is stored in the portable storage medium Rm (see steps S18 and S19 in FIG. 3). According to this configuration, the target person Ho can always check the pitching motion, the teaching content, and the like that he has performed in the past based on the target person imaging information 15 and the like at an arbitrary place (for example, at home).

  Corresponding to claim 8, the amusement facility includes an exercise motion teaching device 10 and a pitching practice field 20 (exercise space) secured so that one or both of the subject Ho and the reference person Hs can perform a pitching motion. It was set as the structure provided (refer FIG. 1, FIG. 2). According to this configuration, while playing in the amusement facility, the exercise technique is improved by correcting the pitching motion.

  Corresponding to the ninth invention, the teaching content specifying means 17 performs a plurality of comparisons from the start to the end of the pitching motion to obtain difference information, and corresponds to the maximum difference value among the plurality of difference information. The teaching contents are specified and notified (see step S16 in FIG. 3 and FIG. 6). According to this configuration, it is only necessary to obtain the difference information limited to a plurality of times, so that the processing content can be suppressed and the teaching content can be identified early. In this embodiment, the number of times obtained by dividing the entire pitching motion time by a predetermined time (0.2 seconds in FIG. 6) is set as “multiple times”, but a desired number of times (for example, 10 times, 50 times, etc.) is set. Even in this case, the same effect can be obtained.

  Corresponding to the tenth aspect of the invention, a measuring device 26 for measuring ball information relating to a ball thrown along with a pitching motion is provided (see FIG. 2), and the notification means 19 notifies the ball information measured by the measuring device 26. It was set as the structure (refer FIG. 10). According to this configuration, it is possible to easily know how the sphere changes before correction after receiving the teaching of the pitching motion and after correction after receiving the teaching and changing the pitching motion.

  Corresponding to the eleventh invention, the transmission storage means 1A includes additional information in the information to be transmitted or stored, and is configured to grant a privilege to the target person Ho when the privilege grant condition is satisfied (Steps S17 and S19 in FIG. 3 are performed). reference). According to this configuration, the target person Ho can obtain a privilege if he / she inputs additional information recognized at an arbitrary place (for example, at home) at the play facility after the next time. From the viewpoint of amusement facilities, it is possible to increase the number of target persons Ho who visit for the purpose and increase the number of repeaters.

[Embodiment 2]
The second embodiment is an example applied to golf swing motion, and will be described with reference to FIG. The configuration and the like of the motion motion teaching apparatus 10 are the same as those in the first embodiment, and the second embodiment will be described with respect to differences from the first embodiment in order to simplify the illustration and description. Therefore, the same elements as those used in Embodiment 1 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted. In the present embodiment, the simple term “ball” means a golf ball.

  A golf driving range 30 shown in FIG. 11 is a configuration example of an exercise space in place of the pitching driving range 20 shown in FIG. The golf driving range 30 is provided in a play facility, and it does not matter whether it is indoor or outdoor. The golf driving range 30 is provided with a tee marker 32 and the like on the teeing ground 31 so that the same realistic feeling as an actual golf course can be obtained. That is, a state where a tee shot can be performed at the teeing ground 31 is created. The teeing ground 31 is formed of lawn (including artificial lawn) in the same manner as an actual golf course. On the rear side (right side of the drawing), a catching net 25 for catching a ball hit by the subject Ho or the like, a projector display device 19b, and the like are installed. The projector display device 19b includes a display device body and a screen, but only the screen is illustrated.

  The golf swing motion basically has the positions of the head, arms (or shoulders), waist, and knees (or ankles) as in the baseball pitching motion. Therefore, the person to be imaged (target person Ho, reference person Hs, etc.) performs the swing motion after wearing the position markers M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6,. The mounting position of the position marker may be the same position as in FIG. 5, but it is preferable to mount the position marker on a part that is important in the swing motion.

  In the motion motion teaching apparatus 10 and the golf driving range 30 configured as described above, an example of teaching a swing motion performed by the subject Ho is the same as in the first embodiment (see FIGS. 3 to 10). ). That is, first, since it is necessary to record the swing motion for the reference person Hs such as a professional player, the reference information recording process is executed (see FIG. 4). Thereafter, the motion motion teaching process in step S11 and subsequent steps is executed for the target person Ho (see FIG. 3). By this execution, the teaching content specifying means 17 displays the teaching content on the projector display device 19b (see FIG. 10). Therefore, according to the second embodiment, the same effects as those of the first embodiment can be obtained with respect to the swing motion of golf.

[Other Embodiments]
In the above, although the form for implementing this invention was demonstrated according to Embodiment 1, 2, this invention is not limited to the said form at all. In other words, various forms can be implemented without departing from the scope of the present invention. For example, the following forms may be realized.
(1) As the motion motion, a pitching motion performed by the pitcher on the mound 21 is applied in the first embodiment, and a swing motion of a tee shot performed by the golfer on the teeing ground 31 is applied in the second embodiment. Instead of this form, another motion motion may be applied. For example, a batting motion performed by a batter is applied to baseball, a swing motion of each shot performed on a fairway, rough, bunker, green, etc. is applied to golf, and a bowling ball throwing motion is applied to bowling Good. It can be applied to other sports in the same manner, and it does not matter whether it is a ball game (for example, soccer kick motion) or a non-ball game (for example, swimming swim motion). As described above, the motion motion teaching apparatus 10 can be applied to various motion motions and can obtain the same effects as those of the first embodiment.
(2) In the first and second embodiments, a display device is applied as the notifying means 19 for notifying the teaching content. That is, the liquid crystal display device 19a is applied in the first embodiment (see FIG. 2), and the projector display device 19b is applied in the second embodiment (see FIG. 11). Instead of (or in addition to) this form, an acoustic device, a vibration device, or the like may be applied as the notification means 19. The sound device corresponds to a speaker built in the display device, a broadcasting speaker, or the like. In particular, the teaching contents are notified by voice. For example, a vibrator or the like corresponds to the vibration device. In any case, the teaching content can be notified to the subject Ho or the like.
(3) In the first and second embodiments, the information scaling means 18 scales one of the reference person imaging information 14 and the subject imaging information 15 based on the physique (particularly the height) (see FIGS. 8 and 9). ). Instead of this form, the subject imaging information 15 may be scaled based on the time required from the start to the end of the motion motion (hereinafter simply referred to as “motion time”). For example, with regard to pitching motion, the pitching motion time is not necessarily the same between the target person Ho and the reference person Hs. As an example, the reference person Hs may take 2.2 seconds, while the subject person Ho may take 2.0 seconds or 2.5 seconds. In this case, even if thrown with the same pitching motion, there is a possibility that inappropriate teaching contents may be specified due to a time lag. Therefore, the information scaling means 18 has a function of temporally scaling the subject imaging information 15 so that the motion time is the same for the subject Ho and the reference person Hs (a predetermined range of allowable error may be recognized). Prepare. When there is no position information corresponding to time when scaling is performed, interpolation processing may be performed based on position information before and after the time. Therefore, even if the subject person Ho and the reference person Hs have different motion times, appropriate teaching contents can be notified.
(4) The exercise spaces of the pitching practice field 20 shown in the first embodiment and the golf practice field 30 shown in the second example are both provided in a play facility (see FIGS. 2 and 11). It may replace with this form and may prepare in facilities (for example, building etc.) other than a play facility, and may install independently. The same applies to practice areas for performing other motions. Regardless of the installation form, the exact teaching content is notified to the subject Ho and the like, so that the same effect as in the first and second embodiments can be obtained.
(5) In the first and second embodiments, the imaging means 11 and the position calculation means 12 are used to acquire position information concerning each part of the body (ie, head, arm, shoulder, waist, knee, ankle, etc.). It was set as the structure provided (refer FIG. 1, FIG. 2). Instead of this form, it may be configured to include other means capable of acquiring position information concerning each part of the body. As other means, for example, means using radio waves and means using sound waves are applicable. The former means that uses radio waves comprises a radio wave transmitter and radio wave receiver that replace the image pickup means 11, and a position calculation means that replaces the position calculation means 12 (a twelfth aspect of the invention). One radio wave transmitter corresponds to a “mounting member” and corresponds to one position marker in the first and second embodiments. The radio waves transmitted from the respective radio wave transmitters have different frequencies, wavelengths and the like so that a plurality of radio wave transmitters can simultaneously transmit the radio waves. A plurality of radio wave receivers are installed at receivable positions inside and outside the exercise space, and the receiving positions are fixed. A radio wave transmitted from a certain radio wave transmitter is received by a plurality of radio wave receivers, and the position calculating means obtains a position (two-dimensional position or three-dimensional position) where the radio wave transmitter is mounted based on the received time lag. Two or more radio wave receivers are required for calculating the two-dimensional position, and three or more are required for calculating the three-dimensional position. Here, the radio wave receiver and the position calculation means correspond to “position detection means”. The latter means using sound waves can be similarly realized by changing the transmission / reception medium from radio waves to sound waves. Even when other means capable of acquiring position information relating to each part of the body is applied in this way, the position can be accurately obtained, so that accurate teaching contents can be notified to the subject Ho or the like. it can.
(6) Although the CCD camera is used as the imaging means 11 in the first and second embodiments, other cameras (for example, a CMOS camera, a video camera, a still camera, etc.) may be used. In the first and second embodiments, a hard disk is used as the recording medium 13, but other recording media (for example, a magneto-optical disk, a flash memory, a RAM, etc.) may be used. In Embodiments 1 and 2, arrows D1 and D2 are used as symbols (see FIG. 10), but other symbols (eg, vectors, symbols, symbols, etc.) may be used. In the first and second embodiments, the measuring device 26 that measures the velocity (ball velocity) of the ball is used (see FIG. 10), but the measuring device 26 that measures other sphere information (for example, sphere type, sphere power, etc.) is used. May be. Regardless of which alternative means is used, the exact teaching contents are notified to the subject Ho or the like, so that the same effect as in the first and second embodiments can be obtained.
