Methods and systems for facilitating interactive training of body-eye coordination and reaction time

Abstract

Methods and systems for virtual coaching and performance training using a mobile device are disclosed. The methods and systems perform the steps of capturing a training video of one or more players, using the camera on the mobile computing device; superimposing a visual cue onto the training video at a first location and for a cue period starting from a first time instant; determining whether at least one of the one or more players has responded to the visual cue at a second time instant within the cue period, by analyzing a body posture flow of each player between the first time instant and the second time instant, wherein each body posture flow is extracted from the training video by performing a computer vision algorithm on one or more frames of the training video; and in response to determining that at least one player has responded to the visual cue, generating a feedback to the one or more players.
