Low-cost step aerobics system with virtual aerobics trainer

摘要

In this paper a low-cost step-aerobics instructor simulationsystem is presented. The proposed system analyses a given song to iden-tify its rhythmic pattern. Subsequently, this rhythmic pattern is used inorder to issue a set of steps-aerobics commands to the user, thus simu-lating a training session. The system uses a Wii Balance Board to trackexercises performed by users and runs on an Android smartphone. Aset of tests were conducted to assess user experience and opinion on thesystem developed.
