Correction System

Compared with traditional physical education (PE), the computer virtual digital-based education system is convenient and efficient, which can effectively solve the shortcomings of traditional teaching mode, and correct the PE motions in real time. Thus, the athletes can master the motion technical skills as soon as possible and the training effect can be improved. For this, based on computer virtual reality technology, this paper constructs a PE motion correction system. Then, through the analysis for real-time motion data and human movement posture, it achieves the training objective of real-time PE teaching motion correction under the three-dimensional visualization. This shall provide a scientific basis for the evaluation of PE teaching and training methods.

Visual Perturbation

Virtual-reality technology is being increasingly used to understand how humans perceive and act in the moving world around them. What is currently not clear is how virtual reality technology is perceived by human participants and what virtual scenes are effective in evoking movement responses to visual stimuli. We investigated the effect of virtual-scene context on human responses to a virtual visual perturbation. We hypothesised that exposure to a natural scene that matched the visual expectancies of the natural world would create a perceptual set towards presence, and thus visual guidance of body movement in a subsequently presented virtual scene. Results supported this hypothesis; responses to a virtual visual perturbation presented in an ambiguous virtual scene were increased when participants first viewed a scene that consisted of natural landmarks which provided ‘real-world’ visual motion cues. Further research in this area will provide a basis of knowledge for the effective use of this technology in the study of human movement responses.

Classroom Project

This project aims to provide students with disabilities the same in class learning experience through virtual reality technology, 360-degree video capture, and the use of Arduino units. These technologies will be combined to facilitate communication between teachers in physical classrooms with students in virtual classrooms. The goal is to provide a person who is affected by a disability (which makes it hard to be in a traditional classroom) the same benefits of a safe and interactive learning environment.
