A system for motion capture of human body movements includes sensor nodes configured for coupling to respective portions of a human subject. Each sensor node generates inertial sensor data as the human subject engages in a physical activity session and processes the inertial sensor data according to a first machine-learned model to generate a set of local motion determinations. One or more computing devices receive the sets of local determinations and process them according to a second machine-learned model to generate a body motion profile. The computing device(s) provide an animated display of an avatar moving according to the body motion profile and generate training data based on input received from a viewer in response to the animated display. The computing device(s) modify at least one of the first machine-learned model or the second machine-learned model based at least in part on the training data.

Dynamic animation of human motion using wearable sensors and machine learning

Systems and methods that provide audio feedback in response to gesture validity can provide a more intuitive interface that can train users to correctly complete gestures. Moreover, systems and methods that provide line-specific audio feedback can provide more specific feedback that can allow a user to better understand what sensing line is being contacted. The systems and methods can further include basing the audio feedback based at least in part on obtained activity data, such that invalid and valid feedbacks can provide different sounds dependent on the determined activity state.

Activity-dependent audio feedback themes for touch gesture inputs

Systems and methods for managing interactive object input are disclosed. An interactive object can include sensors configured to generate sensor data indicative of movement associated with a user of the interactive object. Movement data can be analyzed to detect an attachment of a user to the interactive object and/or a separation of a user from the interactive object. State data indicative of a state of the interactive object relative to the user device can be generated in response detecting a separation of a user from the interactive object. The user device can be disabled, based on the state data, from initiating one or more functions in response to input received at the interactive object.
