1-4. Details of Evaluation Method A method for evaluating a user action using the evaluation system 1 of the present embodiment will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

<Advance preparation>
Before starting the evaluation, the parent device 2 and the child device 3 of the evaluation system 1 are arranged as shown in FIG. 1, and the operation to be evaluated is explained to the user 4. The evaluation target motion is an arbitrary motion that can be used to evaluate the motor ability and the physical condition of the user 4, and may be a static motion in a predetermined pose state or a motion with motion. Since the stationary motion is more likely to improve the accuracy of the evaluation of the state of the user 4, the motion to be evaluated is preferably the stationary motion. The number of operations to be evaluated may be one or more. When there are a plurality of evaluation target operations, shooting is performed for each evaluation target operation.

<Step S1>
First, the parent device 2 selects an evaluation target operation. In one example, when the application for the evaluation system is started up, candidates for the evaluation target operation are displayed on the touch panel display 14, and step S1 is executed by selecting one of the candidates.

After that, the evaluation system 1 or the operator instructs the user 4 to perform the evaluation target operation. The user 4 performs the evaluation target operation according to this instruction.

<Steps S2 to S10>
Next, when the parent device 2 receives an input for starting the shooting (step S2), the parent device 2 instructs the child device 3 to start the shooting (step S3). When the child device 3 receives the instruction to start shooting (step S4), the shooting unit 3a of the child device 3 starts shooting immediately or at a predetermined timing (step S5). In addition, the photographing unit 2a1 of the parent device 2 also starts photographing at a predetermined timing (step S6). It is preferable that the parent device 2 and the child device 3 perform synchronous photographing at the same timing of starting photographing. This makes it possible to capture the action of the user 4 at a specific point in time from a plurality of directions.

Next, the photographing of the parent device 2 and the child device 3 is finished at a predetermined timing (steps S7 to S8). The photographing may be terminated after a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) has elapsed from the start of the photographing, the master device 2 is instructed to terminate the photographing, and the master device 2 and the slave device 3 are based on the input. The shooting of may be ended.

Next, the child device 3 transmits the photographing data photographed by the child device 3 to the parent device 2 (step S9), and the parent device 2 receives this (step S10).

When shooting is performed at N frames/second for T seconds, the number of frames M included in the shooting data is calculated by N×T. N and T are positive real numbers, and M is a natural number. Each frame contains a still image. N is 30, for example, and T is 10, for example. In this case, the captured data includes 300 still images.

<Step S11>
Next, the parent device 2 confirms whether or not the photographing is completed for all the evaluation target operations (step S11), and if completed, proceeds to the next step, and if not completed, proceeds to step S1. Return to.

After returning to step S1, the next evaluation target operation is selected (step S1), and steps S2 to S11 are executed. For example, the evaluation target motion is changed from the evaluation target motion X to the evaluation target motion Y. The user 4 is also instructed to perform the changed evaluation target operation, and thereafter, shooting is performed.

Through the above steps, the shooting data can be obtained for all the evaluation target operations.

<Step S12>
Next, the measurement unit 2a2 of the parent device 2 measures the movement of the user 4 from each piece of captured data and acquires measurement data (step S12). The acquired measurement data is appropriately stored in a storage unit such as the main storage unit 26 and the auxiliary storage unit 28.

This measurement can be performed by two-dimensional posture estimation with respect to each still image forming the captured data. In the two-dimensional posture estimation, the posture of the user 4 can be two-dimensionally estimated by estimating the coordinates of a plurality of feature points of the user 4 in the still image by an algorithm using deep learning, for example.

An example of the arrangement of the plurality of feature points is as shown in FIG. Characteristic points 0 to 13 correspond to the head, neck, left shoulder, left elbow, left hand, right shoulder, right elbow, right hand, left hip joint, left knee, left foot, right hip joint, right knee, and right foot, respectively. Therefore, when the coordinates of the feature points 0 to 13 of the user 4 performing the motion to be evaluated in each still image are acquired by the two-dimensional posture estimation, the posture of the user can be estimated based on these coordinates. Therefore, the motion of the user 4 (more specifically, the motion of the skeleton) can be measured by performing the two-dimensional posture estimation on a plurality of still images. Note that the number and arrangement of the characteristic points are not limited to those in this embodiment, and can be changed as appropriate.

The measurement data is acquired in association with each piece of shooting data. For example, when a predetermined evaluation target motion is photographed from the front, back, left, and right, since there are four photographing data for each evaluation target motion, there are a total of eight photographing data, and the measurement data is acquired for each photographing data.

Further, the measurement data is composed of, for example, the coordinates of a plurality of feature points obtained by the two-dimensional posture estimation with respect to each still image forming each piece of captured data. Therefore, when the image data is composed of M frames, the measurement data corresponding to the image data is also composed of M frames. Note that it is not necessary to measure all the feature points, and only the feature points necessary for the evaluation of the evaluation item associated with each evaluation target operation may be measured. The evaluation items will be described later.

<Step S13>
Next, the specifying unit 2a3 of the parent device 2 specifies the evaluation target section that satisfies the specific condition associated with the evaluation target operation, from the measurement data acquired in Step S12 (Step S13).

The specific condition is a condition in which the motion state of the user 4 is in a state suitable for the evaluation of the evaluation target motion. For example, when the motion to be evaluated is a stationary motion, the specific condition is an evaluation indicating the motion of the user 4. That is, the value is equal to or less than a predetermined standard (eg, minimum). Further, for example, the specific condition may be that the motion amount of the predetermined motion of the user 4 is equal to or larger than the predetermined amount.

The evaluation value indicating the movement of the user 4 is, for example, a statistical value indicating the movement of the user 4 in consecutive L frames starting from an arbitrary frame in M frames forming the measurement data. M and L are natural numbers, L<M, L<0.8M is preferable, and L<0.6M is preferable. This is because if L is too close to the value of M, it may be difficult to specify a section suitable for evaluation.

For example, as shown in FIG. 7A, if M=300, L=150, and the starting frame is F61, the evaluation value is a statistical value indicating the movement of the user 4 between frames F61 to F210. When the frame serving as the starting point is F62, the evaluation value is a statistical value indicating the movement of the user 4 between the frames F62 and F211. The statistical value can be calculated by, for example, a simple sum of the motion amounts of the user 4 for each frame or a value based on the simple sum (eg, simple average).

When the starting point is changed, the evaluation value changes. Therefore, the identifying unit 2a3 of the parent device 2 calculates an evaluation value for P different L frames having different starting frames. P is a natural number. For example, when the frame is moved from F61 to F151 as the start point, evaluation values are calculated for 90 150 frames. In this case, the specific condition is, for example, that the order when the P evaluation values are arranged in ascending order of the movement of the user is within Q. Q is a natural number. Q<P, Q≦P/5 is preferable, Q≦P/10 is more preferable, and Q=1 is further preferable. Then, the identifying unit 2a3 sets one of the Q L frames as the evaluation target section. For example, if P=90 and Q=10, 10 evaluation values with smaller values are extracted from 90 evaluation values, and 150 frames corresponding to any of these 10 evaluation values are evaluated. It becomes a section. If P=90 and Q=1 and the evaluation value of 150 frames (that is, the frames F121 to F270) starting from the frame F121 is the minimum, the frames F121 to F270 are the evaluation target sections. Although the evaluation value may be calculated for the L frame having the frames F0 to F60 as the starting points, since the data immediately after the start of imaging has low reliability, the L frame having the frames F0 to F60 as the starting points is used in the present embodiment. No evaluation value was calculated for. That is, the reliability of the evaluation is improved by excluding the first plurality of frames from the measurement data and specifying the evaluation target section.

The amount of movement of the user 4 for each frame can be calculated based on the amount of movement of the feature point in the measurement data. In one example, as shown in FIG. 7B, the amount of movement of the feature points for a certain frame (frame F121) is the average position of the feature points of the previous 15 frames (frames F106 to F120) and the next 15 frames (including the frame F121). It can be calculated based on the difference between the average positions of the feature points of the frames F121 to F135). The amount of movement may be calculated by another method, for example, based on the average position of the characteristic points of the first 15 frames and the latter 15 frames of the last 30 frames. Further, instead of using the average position of 15 frames, an average position of another number of frames may be used.

The amount of movement of a feature point can be calculated using one or a plurality of feature points. When calculating the motion amount of a feature point using a plurality of feature points, for example, the motion amount of the feature point can be calculated by statistically processing the motion amount of each feature point. The statistical process here is, for example, a process of calculating a statistically obtained value such as a simple sum, a weighted sum, or a value (simple average, weighted average) based thereon.

<Step S14>
Next, the item-based evaluation unit 2e1 of the parent device 2 performs evaluation on a plurality of evaluation items associated with the evaluation target operation based on the measurement data of the evaluation target section identified in step S13 (step S14).

The evaluation items include items related to the compensatory motion when the target motion is evaluated. The compensatory operation is an operation that is unavoidably performed in order to execute the operation to be evaluated.

When the condition of the user 4 is good, the evaluation target operation can be performed in an ideal state without performing the replacement operation. Therefore, the size of the compensatory action reflects the condition of the user 4, so that the condition of the user 4 can be appropriately evaluated by setting the items related to the compensatory action as the evaluation items. Further, the item-by-item evaluation unit 2e1 can execute the evaluation based on the size of the compensatory action.

Further, as shown in Table 1, each of the plurality of evaluation items is associated with one or a plurality of body parts of the user 4. For example, it is considered that the cause of the compensatory motion X1 during the evaluation target motion X is a problem with the muscle strength or flexibility around the spinal column, so the weight value 3 is assigned to the spinal column. The compensatory motion X2 in the evaluation target motion X is caused by the problems of the hip joint, the knee, and the foot, and it is considered that the problem of the hip joint and the foot has a great influence on the compensatory motion X2. Therefore, in the compensating operation X2, the weight values 3, 2, and 3 are assigned to the hip joint, the knee, and the foot, respectively. Note that, here, the evaluation items are weighted and associated with one or more body parts of the user 4, but the weighting is not performed and association is performed only with respect to whether the body parts are associated with the evaluation items. Good. For example, when the compensating operation X2 is related to the hip joint, the knee, and the foot, the hip joint, the knee, and the foot are set to "1", and the shoulder and the spine are set to "0".

Further, in Table 1, the total weight value of the body parts related to the compensatory motion X1 in the evaluation target motion X is 3, and the total weight value of the body parts related to the compensatory motion X2 in the evaluation target motion X is 3. Is 8, the compensation operation X2 has a larger influence on the final evaluation than the compensation operation X1. In other words, weighting is made among a plurality of evaluation items. As a result, the importance of each evaluation item can be reflected in the evaluation, and the accuracy of the evaluation can be improved. It should be noted that weighting may not be performed among a plurality of evaluation items, and the sum of weight values of body parts associated with each evaluation item may be the same.

The evaluation can be performed by assigning a score or a rank to each evaluation item. For the score, for example, a value based on a statistical value calculated from the value of the evaluation item (for example, the compensating operation X1) for each still image of the evaluation target frame (that is, 150 frames of the evaluation target section) is used as the evaluation score. You can Examples of the statistical value include an average value, a maximum value, a minimum value, a total value, and a mode value. In addition, ranking can be performed based on this score. For example, in the case of ranking in three stages of A, B, and C, the points may be ranked as a rank C when the score is equal to or higher than the first threshold, a rank B when a score is equal to or higher than the second threshold and a rank A when the score is lower than the second threshold. it can.

Also, ranking from other viewpoints is possible. For example, if the evaluation target motion is a stationary motion and the number of frames in which the motion amount of the feature point is equal to or greater than the reference value in the evaluation target frame is a predetermined ratio (for example, 60%) or more, the stationary state is maintained It can be ranked C as not done. Further, for example, when the number of frames in which the value of the evaluation item is equal to or greater than the reference value in the evaluation target frame is equal to or greater than a predetermined ratio (for example, 60%), the rank B can be set. In this way, ranking can be performed from various viewpoints. The number of ranks may be two or four or more.

By the above method, evaluation is performed by scoring or ranking all evaluation items. Table 1 shows an example of evaluation of ranking.

<Step S15>
Next, the site-specific evaluation unit 2e2 of the parent device 2 determines the user 4 based on the evaluation result in step S14 for each of the plurality of evaluation items and the association between the evaluation item and the body part shown in Table 1. Site-specific evaluation is performed for each of the plurality of body parts (step S15).

As shown in Table 2, the site-specific evaluation can be performed by aggregating the results shown in Table 1 for each body part for each evaluation rank. For example, for the hip joint, since the rank A has one evaluation item with a weight value of 3, the aggregate value of rank A is 3, and the rank B has one evaluation item with a weight value of 3, therefore the aggregate value of rank B is 3 and rank C have two evaluation items with a weight value of 3, so the total value of rank C is 6.

The state of the body part is preferably grasped by evaluating the aggregate value of rank C, the aggregate value of rank B, and the aggregate value of rank A in this order. In the case of Table 2, since the hip joint has the largest aggregate value of rank C, it can be said that the hip joint is in the worst condition.

As shown in FIG. 8, the result of the evaluation is illustrated by the drawing unit 2g of the parent device 2 in association with the body part of the user 4. In FIG. 8, the rank and the totalized value are shown for each body part. It should be noted that, in the drawing, for example, ranks A, B, and C may be associated with blue, yellow, and red, respectively.

<Step S16>
Next, the suggestion unit 2f of the parent device 2 proposes an exercise program based on the evaluation in step S15. In one example, the proposed exercise program relates to a body part having the worst result of site-specific evaluation among a plurality of body parts. The proposing unit 2f proposes one or a plurality of exercise programs from the plurality of exercise programs stored in the storage unit based on the evaluation result. One or a plurality of exercise programs are stored for each body part and rank.

An example of an exercise program selection method is as follows. First, focusing on the total value of rank C in the total table of Table 2, the body part having the maximum total value is specified. In the case of Table 2, it is a hip joint. Next, an exercise program is selected based on the total value. Assuming that three programs are prepared for rank C of the hip joint, if the aggregated value is less than or equal to the first threshold value, the program “hip joint C1” is selected, and if the aggregated value is greater than or equal to the first threshold value and less than or equal to the second threshold value, “ When the "hip joint C2" is selected and the total value exceeds the second threshold value, the "hip joint C3" is selected. For example, when the second threshold value is 5, in the case of Table 2, “hip joint C3” is selected.

“Hip joint C3” is a program for the user 4 who has a very poor hip joint condition, and is a program composed of a very light exercise for gently stretching the hip joint, for example. "Hip joint C2" and "hip joint C1" are programs for the user 4 who have a slightly better hip joint condition, and are programs that are composed of exercises that place a higher load on the hip joint than "hip joint C3". These programs are designed for the purpose of improving the condition of the hip joint of the user 4.

In addition, when there are a plurality of body parts having the lowest evaluation state (for example, a body part having the highest rank C total value), the exercise program may be selected from the body parts having many evaluation items in Table 1. This is because a large number of evaluation items means that the frequency of movements when moving the body is that high, and improvement should be prioritized. In addition, when there are a plurality of body parts with the lowest evaluation state and the number of evaluation items is the same, it is also possible to select the exercise program for the lower part (that is, the part closer to the foot). .. This is because the state of the part close to the foot also affects the part above it, so that the improvement of the state of the part close to the foot is prioritized.

When the total value of rank C in the total table of Table 2 is 0 for all body parts, attention is paid to the total value of rank B, and an exercise program is selected in the same manner as in the case of rank C.

If the aggregated values of ranks B and C are 0 for all body parts, it means that the rank was A for all the evaluation items, so the condition of user 4 is good, and in order to maintain that state. Exercise program is proposed.

The proposed program may relate to a body part in which the result of the site-specific evaluation is a predetermined standard or less among a plurality of body parts.

For example, when the predetermined criterion is “rank C”, exercise programs for all body parts whose rank C aggregate values are not 0 are proposed. In the case of Table 2, since the aggregated values of rank C are not 0 in the spine, hip joint, knees, and feet, exercise programs related to these body parts are proposed. The user 4 may select an arbitrary exercise program from the suggested exercise programs, or may select it based on another condition.

<Execution program/re-evaluation>
User 4 implements the proposed exercise program. It is preferable to perform the evaluation using the evaluation system 1 again after executing the exercise program once or a plurality of times.

For example, it is assumed that the result of implementing the exercise program improves the condition of the hip joint of the user 4, and in the re-evaluation, the summary table of Table 2 changes as shown in Table 3. In this case, an exercise program for the hip joint is no longer necessary, so an exercise program for the spine or foot with the highest rank C aggregate value is proposed.

2. Second Embodiment The second embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, and the main difference is the specific method after step S15. The difference will be mainly described below.

<Step S15>
In the present embodiment, as shown in Table 4, the site-specific evaluation can be performed by summing the results shown in Table 1 by multiplying the weight value by the rank coefficient for each body part. Here, the rank coefficient is set so that the ranks A, B, and C are 1, 5, and 15, respectively, but this value may be appropriately changed.

The state of the body part can be grasped based on the totalized value. In the case of Table 4, it can be said that the condition of the hip joint is the worst because the total value of the hip joint is the maximum.

<Step S16>
An example of an exercise program selection method in the present embodiment is as follows. First, the body part having the maximum total value in the total table of Table 4 is specified. In the case of Table 4, it is a hip joint. Next, an exercise program is selected based on the total value. For example, for hip joints, it is assumed that separate exercise programs are prepared for the classification of aggregate values of 20 or less, 21 to 40, 41 to 60, 61 to 80, 81 to 100, 101 to 120, 121 or more. In the case of Table 4, since the total value is 108, the exercise program corresponding to the total values 101 to 120 is proposed.

3. Other Embodiments In the above embodiments, the evaluation is performed based on the measurement data acquired from the imaging data, but the evaluation may be performed based on other data related to the evaluation target operation. For example, it is possible to cause the user to perform a motion to be evaluated while wearing a large number of acceleration sensors, and to evaluate the motion of the user based on the data obtained from the output of the acceleration sensor.
-Measurement data acquired by the measuring unit may be used as it is for evaluation without providing the specifying unit. Further, a part of the measurement data may be extracted by a method different from the method described in step S13, and the extracted measurement data may be used for evaluation.
The movement of the user may be measured by a method different from the method described in step S12. For example, the evaluation may be performed based on the change in the contour of the user extracted from the still image.
In the above embodiment, the evaluation system 1 is configured using the mobile information terminal 10 such as a smartphone or a tablet. However, at least one of the devices configuring the evaluation system 1 is capable of communication and has a photographing function. It may be any device (for example, a web camera) that the device has.
