System and method for tracking and assessing movement skills in multidimensional space
First Claim
1. A method for prompting a user to engage in a physical activity, the method comprising:
- causing displaying of a representation of the user on a monitor, wherein the displaying of the representation includes moving the representation of the user to reflect movement of the user;
causing displaying of one or more virtual objects on the monitor, wherein the displaying of the one or more virtual objects includes displaying the one or more virtual objects to prompt physical motion of the user; and
causing reporting of at least one indicium of physical activity performance of the user.

Abstract
Accurate simulation of sport to quantify and train performance constructs by employing sensing electronics for determining, in essentially real time, the player'"'"'s three dimensional positional changes in three or more degrees of freedom (three dimensions); and computer controlled sport specific cuing that evokes or prompts sport specific responses from the player that are measured to provide meaningful indicia of performance. The sport specific cuing is characterized as a virtual opponent that is responsive to, and interactive with, the player in real time. The virtual opponent continually delivers and/or responds to stimuli to create realistic movement challenges for the player.

27. A physical activity device comprising:
-
a monitor;
means for displaying a representation of a user on the monitor, wherein the means for displaying the representation includes means for moving the representation of the user to reflect movement of the user;
means for displaying one or more virtual objects on the monitor, wherein the means for displaying the one or more virtual objects includes means for displaying the one or more virtual objects to prompt physical motion of the user; and
means for reporting at least one indicium of physical activity performance of the user.
