Abstract

This paper proposes a movement instruction system using virtual environment. This system consists of a monitor, cameras, ana a PC. A learner is coached by a virtual instructor that is displayed in virtual environment as 3 dimensional computer graphics on the monitor. Virtual instructor shows sample movement and suggests mistakes of learner's movement by recognizing movement of learner's movement from the picture that cameras capture. To improve the robust characteristic of information from cameras, the system enables to select optimum inputs from cameras based on learner's movement It implemented by Fuzzy associative inference system Fuzzy associative inference system is implemented by bi-directional associative memory and fuzzy rules. It is suitable to convert obscure information into clear. We implement and evaluate the movement instruction system
