| Abstract | Abstract—As computers and networks have been developed vigorously, distance learning could be integrated with computer vision techniques for the purpose of better learning effects. In this paper, we developed a distance yoga learning system for people to learn/play through the internet. The main point of the interactive learning system essentially consists in that the gesture performed by player, segmented by computer vision techniques, should possess the same silhouette for a given yoga posture. For better accuracy, the learning score is calculated by matching the distance transformation of the player silhouette with stored standard yoga posture. In the experiments, 23 postures were defined and six persons were invited to do each posture three times. About 86% of the difference between computer scores and the scores given by a yoga teacher falls within -2.5~2.5. |
