H) Effect of the invention A Industrial field of application The present invention relates to a motion practice apparatus, and is suitable for application to a case where a practitioner learns a model motion while watching an image of a model performer.

B. Summary of the Invention The present invention relates to a motion practitioner in which a practitioner can practice while watching the motion of the model performer displayed on a monitor. The practice effect can be further enhanced by creating left-right inverted images so that the movements overlap.

C Conventional Technology Conventionally, for example, in practice of golf, in order to improve the form during swing, the form of the trainee and the form performer are recorded in advance with a video tape recorder (VTR).
A motion practice apparatus has been proposed in which the practice person's form and the model performer's form are displayed on two monitors respectively for comparison and examination.

By the way, if you try to check the practitioner's form by the conventional method, it is necessary to record the practitioner's form in advance, and it is necessary to compare it with the model performer's form. There is an inconvenience when the practitioner repeats practicing the model actor's form as it is to correct the form.

That is, as shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, the monitor
When the images of the model performer MD and the trainee TR are projected on the MNT1 and MNT2, respectively, to check the difference in movement between the two,
The image viewed by the practitioner TR is an image of the model performer MD and the practitioner TR seen from the camera side. When the practitioner TR views the image of the model performer MD, it is as if the model performer MD The situation is such that the swing is repeated while facing each other.

However, the trainer TR is actually a model actor MD facing each other.
When practicing the movements in line with the movements of the trainee, it is easy for the trainee TR to move by moving the body so that the movement of the model performer MD is reflected on the mirror surface in the left-right direction. A method is used that can imitate the behavior of the model actor MD.

For example, as shown in FIG. 8 (A), when the model performer MD makes an action of raising the right hand, the trainee TR makes an action of raising the left hand accordingly. By doing this, even if the trainee TR is unfamiliar with the practice of the model performer MD, the model performer
It becomes easy to imitate the behavior of MD.

D. Problem to be solved by the invention. However, in the conventional motion training device, when the trainee TR makes a mirror-like motion, when it is displayed on the monitor MNT2, the image is shown in FIG. 8 (B). As shown in, the left and right movements are performed with respect to the movement of the model performer MD (FIG. 8 (A)).

For example, the image of the model actor MD is the left hand (that is, the right hand)
When practicing TR raises his left hand while raising this, the image of practitioner TR on monitor MNT2 will raise his right hand.

Therefore, if the movement of the trainer TR and the movement of the model performer MD are to be compared, it is necessary to compare two images in which the left and right sides are interchanged, which makes it difficult to check in detail.

The present invention has been made in consideration of the above points, and in the case of comparing and examining the motion of the model performer and the motion of the practitioner, or repeating exercises by imitating the motion of the model performer, The purpose of the present invention is to propose a motion practicing device that makes it possible to practice motions more easily.

E Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the problems, in the present invention, the image of the trainee TR imaged by the camera-integrated video tape recorder 13 is inverted by the left / right inversion circuit 21. By displaying the image of the model performer MD reproduced by the video deck 7 on the second monitor 5 as well as displaying on the first monitor 6, it is displayed on the first and second monitors 6 and 5. Motion of model actor MD and practitioner TR based on differences in images
To be able to check the difference with the behavior of.

F action The image of the trainee TR is inverted in the left / right inversion circuit 21 and the first
When the image is displayed on the monitor 6 of, the image of the practitioner TR is converted into a mirror image so as to be superimposed and compared with the image created by the motion of the model performer.

Therefore, the momentary movements of the practitioner TR can be sequentially compared with the movements of the model performer MD, so that the difference between the motions of the model performer MD and the trainer TR can be accurately checked. be able to.

G Embodiment One embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

The video signal VD2 input to one of the switching input terminals n of the video switches 22 and 23 via T1 and transmitted from the video deck 7 is input to the other switching input terminal m of the video switches 22 and 23 via the terminal T2. Is entered.

Thus, the video signal VD3 obtained at the output end o of the video switch 22 is subjected to left-right inversion processing in the left-right inversion circuit 21 and then input as one of the switching input ends n of the video switch 24 as a video signal VD4 and directly. It is input to the other switching input terminal m. The video signal DV5 obtained at the output terminal o is supplied to the video input terminal IN of the first monitor 6 via the terminal T3 and also to the input terminal of the video deck 7 via the terminal T4.

The video signal obtained at the output end o of the video switch 23
DV6 is supplied to the video input terminal IN of the second monitor 5 via the terminal T5.

In addition to this, the remote control receiving circuit 18 responds to the command content of the control signal S1 given from the remote control operation device 16 and, via the terminals T6 and T7, sends the control signals S11 and S12 is applied, and the control input terminal CON of the first monitor 6 and the second monitor 5 is supplied via terminals T8 and T9.
Control signals S13 and S14 to the video switch 2
Control signals S15, S16 and S17 are given to 2, 23 and 24.

In the case of this embodiment, the left / right inversion circuit 21 has a pair of 1H memories 31 and 32 capable of writing a video signal for one horizontal period (which is represented by 1H), as shown in FIG. Control signal S21 sent from write / read control circuit 33
The input terminal T21
The video signal VD3 arriving at is inverted horizontally by 1H and then sent out from the output terminal T22 as a video signal VD4.

When the video signal VD3 for 1H is sequentially written to the 1H memory 31 through the switching input terminal h and the switching output terminal i of the video switch 34 in the memory area in which the address numbers increase, The 1H video signal stored in the other 1H memory 32 is read from a memory area in which the address numbers are sequentially reduced, and is sent out via the switching input terminal j and the switching output terminal h of the video switch 35. This is supplied to the video switch 24 as the video signal VD4.

Thus, when the 1H video signal is completely written in the 1H memory 31, the video switches 34 and 35 are switched by the control signals S22 and S23. At this time, the video signal VD3 for 1H input to the input terminal T21 is written to the 1H memory 32 through the switching input terminal h and the switching output terminal j of the video switch 34, in the memory area in which the address numbers are sequentially increased. At the same time, the 1H video signal stored in the 1H memory 31 is read from the memory area in which the address numbers are sequentially reduced to the output terminal T22 through the switching input terminal i and the switching output terminal h of the video switch 35, Signal VD4
Is sent to the video switch 24 as.

(G2) Model operation and practice operation comparison mode In this operation mode, the image of the model performer MD is displayed on the second monitor 5, and at the same time, the practice person TR is displayed on the first monitor 6.
By displaying the image of, the difference between the model motion and the practice motion can be compared and examined.

When the operator commands this operation mode by the remote control operator 16, the remote control receiving circuit 18 switches the video switch 22 to the switching input terminal n side, and switches the video switch 23 to the switching input terminal m side. The video switch 24 is switched to the switching input terminal n side.

At the same time, the remote control receiving circuit 18 causes the VTR 13 with a built-in camera to operate as a camera and the video deck 7 to perform a reproducing operation.

Therefore, the video signal VD1 obtained by picking up the image of the trainee TR from the camera-integrated VTR 13 is given to the left-right inverting circuit 21 as the video signal VD3 through the video switch 22, and the left-right inverting video signal VD4 obtained at the output end thereof. It is input to the first monitor 6 through the video switch 24.

Simultaneously with this, in the video deck 7, a model actor in advance.
A video signal VD2 obtained by reproducing from a video tape formed by recording MD images is input to the second monitor 5 through the video switch 23.

Thus, the practitioner TR can observe the motion of the model performer MD displayed on the second monitor 5 and perform a practicing motion imitating the motion of the model performer MD.
The first monitor 6 which is imaged in R13 and is imaged in real time
Is displayed in.

At this time, the video image of the trainee TR displayed on the first monitor 6 is horizontally inverted by the horizontal inversion circuit 21, so that the image is switched to the left and right as shown in FIG. Is called as a mirror image), while
On the second monitor 5, as shown in FIG. 4 (A), an image of the model performer MD, which is an image that is not subjected to the inversion processing (this is called a normal image), is displayed.

Therefore, if the trainee TR looks at the image of the model performer MD (FIG. 4 (A)) displayed as a normal image on the second monitor 5, and if he / she makes a motion to imitate the motion as it is, the trainee TR
Since the TR image is displayed on the first monitor 6 as a mirror image, the motion of the practitioner TR that is finally displayed on the first monitor 6 is the same as the motion of the model performer MD displayed on the second monitor 5. Match so that the left and right sides overlap.

Therefore, by comparing the movement of the image of the model performer MD on the second monitor 5 with the movement of the exerciser TR on the first monitor 6 in detail, it is possible to easily perform the disagreement operation. Can be checked, and the form of the trainee TR can be accurately corrected by correcting the motion of the trainee TR based on the check result.

(G3) Model motion practice mode In this motion mode, the model motion of the model performer MD is displayed on the first monitor 6, and the model motion is performed by one or more trainees TR.
While watching, it is a mode in which you can practice to imitate the performance of the model actor MD.

In this case, the remote control receiving circuit 18 switches the video switch 22 to the switching input terminal m side and switches the video switch 24 to the switching input terminal n side.

At the same time, the remote control receiving circuit 18 causes the video deck 7 to perform a reproduction operation and also causes the first monitor 6 to perform a display operation.

In the case of this embodiment, on the tape played back by the video deck 7, the image in which the model performer MD is performing the action that the practicer TR tries to learn is recorded as it is (without being left-right reversed. ), This is reproduced and supplied to the horizontal inversion circuit 21.

Thus, a mirror image of the model performer MD is displayed on the first monitor 6 as shown in FIG. You can practice the behavior of the model actor MD.

(G4) Dubbing mode This mode is a mode in which, for example, a master tape is created by dubbing an image captured by the camera-integrated VTR 13 onto the video deck 7.

In this case, the remote control receiving circuit 18 switches the video switch 22 to the input terminal n side and the video switch 24 to the input terminal m side. At the same time, the remote control receiving circuit 18 causes the VTR 13 with a built-in camera to perform a reproducing operation and also causes the video deck 7 to perform a recording operation.

Thus, the video signal reproduced from the video cassette of the TVR 13 with a built-in camera is transferred to the video deck 7 via the video switches 22 and 24, so that the master cassette of the video deck 7 can be edited and dubbed.

In the case of this embodiment, the condition for operating the first monitor 6 for display or for turning it off can be selected and designated by the remote control operation device 16.

Thus, the video of the model motion or the practice motion imaged by the VTR 13 with a built-in camera can be edited and diced on the master tape of the video deck 7.

(G5) Demonstration tape creation mode In this mode, the behavior of the model actor MD is created as a demonstration tape.

At this time, the remote control receiving circuit 18 switches the video switch 22 to the input terminal n side and switches the video switch 24 to the input terminal n side. At the same time, the remote control reception circuit 18 operates the camera-integrated VTR 13 as a camera and controls the video deck 7 in the recording mode.

In the case of this embodiment, the model performer MD acts as a model performance as it is for the practicer TR to practice, and after the image is horizontally flipped in the left / right inversion circuit 21 via the video switch 22, the video is played. It is recorded on the video deck 7 through the switch 24.

In this way, after the image performed by the model performer MD is converted into a mirror image and recorded on the demonstration tape of the video deck 7, the demonstration tape is recorded in the above-described "comparison mode of model motion and practice motion". By playing back the tape, the practitioner TR can create a tape that can be practiced by operating as if it were imitating.

Operation of this Embodiment The display operation or the off operation of the first monitor 6 is made selectable by the remote control operation device 16 and thus, an image captured by the camera-integrated VTR 13 is required as necessary. Can be monitored.

(G6) Image check mode This mode is a mode for monitoring the contents of the video signal obtained from the VTR 13 with a built-in camera or the video deck 7.

First, the remote control receiving circuit 18 switches the video switch 23 to the input terminal n side,
At the same time that the VTR 13 is operated as a camera, the second monitor 5 is operated for display.

Thus, the video imaged by the camera-integrated VTR 13 is displayed on the second monitor 5 via the video switch 23.

Secondly, the remote control receiving circuit 18 switches the video switch 23 to the switching input terminal n side, operates the camera-integrated VTR 13 as a VTR, and simultaneously displays the second monitor 5.

Thus, the image reproduced from the video cassette of the camera-integrated VTR 13 is transferred to the second monitor 5 via the video switch 23.
Displayed above.

Thirdly, the remote control receiving circuit 18 switches the video switch 23 to the input terminal m side, performs the reproduction operation of the video deck 7, and simultaneously displays the second monitor 5.

Thus, the image reproduced on the video deck 7
Can be displayed on the monitor 5.

(G7) Effect of the Embodiment According to the above configuration, the exerciser TR displays the motion to be practiced on the second monitor 5 as a video image showing the mirror image of the model performer MD, so that the exerciser TR can perform this operation. By performing a motion of imitating while watching, it is possible to easily practice to eliminate the difference from the motion of the model actor MD.

To do this, the video of the trainee TR is integrated with the camera VTR13
By capturing the image by using, and by displaying it on the first monitor 6 after converting it into a mirror image, it is possible to display the motion of the trainee TR and the motion of the model performer MD as if they overlap. Since the difference between the two can be checked in detail, the motion of the practitioner TR can be corrected efficiently, and thus a motion practicing device with a great practicing effect can be realized.

(G8) Other Embodiments (1) In the above embodiment, the image of the model performer MD is displayed as a normal image in the “comparison mode of model motion and practice motion” as described above with reference to FIG. Along with this, the image of the trainee TR is displayed as a mirror image so that they are superimposed on each other, but instead of this, the image of the model performer MD is displayed as a mirror image and the trainer TR is displayed.
Even if the image is displayed as a normal image, the same effect as in the above case can be obtained.

By the way, the generally skilled model performer MD is trained to imitate the motion of the model performer MD as it is by showing it directly to the trainee TR, which is in a mirror image of the motion of the trainee TR. Therefore, when the demonstration tape is made by continuing the model performance as the mirror image as it is, when the video image is reproduced on the video deck 7, it may be inverted and displayed on the monitor.

As a method for this, in FIG. 2, a new left / right inversion circuit may be provided in parallel between the video switch 23 and the terminal T5, and this may be switched by the video switch as needed.

(2) In the above embodiment, the two monitors 5 and 6 are provided so that the images of the model performer MD and the trainee TR are separately displayed. However, instead of this, As shown in FIG. 6 or 7,
Even if the display screen of one monitor 5 (or 6) is divided to display two images, the same effect as the above case can be obtained.

H Effect of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, since the image of the model performer and the image of the practitioner can be horizontally reversed so that the image of the practitioner can be superimposed on each other, the practitioner can It is possible to realize a motion practicing apparatus that can more easily correct the form when practicing motions so as to match the motions of the model performer.
