Abstract
A running form diagnosis system capable of automatically scoring a running form of a runner is provided. The running form diagnosis system obtains body motion information as to a test subject running on a treadmill, and calculate a running form score of the test subject by applying obtained characteristics to a given operation expression. The operation expression is generated based on correlation between characteristics of a plurality of test runners and comprehensive evaluation given by an expert with respect to the plurality of test runners.
Claims15
A running form diagnosis system for scoring a running form of a test subject, comprising:
- a storage device configured to store an operation expression representing a correlation between body motion information extracted from information related to running of a plurality of test runners and evaluation given by an expert with respect to respective running of the plurality of test runners;
- an interface for receiving an input of information related to running of the test subject;
- and
- a processor configured to output a score as to a running form of said test subject based on information inputted to said interface,
- said processor being configured to:
- extract body motion information of said test subject from the information related to running of said test subject and inputted to said interface;
- and
- calculate the score as to the running form of said test subject by applying said extracted body motion information to said operation expression.
A method for scoring a running form of a test subject, the method being executed by a computer,
- said computer including:
- a storage device configured to store an operation expression representing correlation between body motion information extracted from information related to running of a plurality of test runners and evaluation given by an expert with respect to respective running of the plurality of test runners;
- and
- an interface for receiving an input of information related to running of a test subject,
- the method comprising:
- allowing said computer to extract body motion information of said test subject from information related to running of the test subject and inputted to said interface;
- and
- allowing said computer to calculate a score as to the running form of said test subject by applying said extracted body motion information to said operation expression.
