Balance training system, control method, and program

A method of controlling a balance training system for allowing a trainee standing on a riding plate to perform balance training, the method comprising:

• a detection step for detecting a load that the riding plate receives from the trainee;
• a center of gravity calculation step for calculating a first center of gravity, which is a center of gravity of the load, based on the detected load;
• an image-capturing step for acquiring image data of an image including a posture of the trainee;
• a center of gravity estimation step for estimating a second center of gravity, which is a center of gravity of the trainee, based on the image data;
• and
• a determination step for determining that an alert to the trainee should be output based on a difference between the first center of gravity and the second center of gravity.

A computer readable non-transitory storage medium storing a program for executing a method of controlling a balance training system for allowing a trainee standing on a riding plate to perform balance training, wherein the method comprises:

• a detection step for detecting a load that the riding plate receives from the trainee;
• a center of gravity calculation step for calculating a first center of gravity, which is a center of gravity of the load, based on the detected load;
• an image-capturing step for acquiring image data of an image including a posture of the trainee;
• a center of gravity estimation step for estimating a second center of gravity, which is a center of gravity of the trainee, based on the image data;
• and
• a determination step for determining that an alert to the trainee should be output based on a difference between the first center of gravity and the second center of gravity.
