Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a self-learning system for water sport users which comprises a wearable camera device, a computer and a learning data base. The carrying camera comprises a fixing element, a bearing element and a waterproof camera. The fixing element is disposed on a human body. The bearing element is disposed on the fixing element. The bearing element is bendable and has adjustable length. The waterproof camera is disposed on the bearing element. The waterproof camera shoots human postures of water sport. The waterproof camera transforms image signal to digital signal. The computer receives and processes the digital signal, and then through a water-sport learning module assesses human posture as well as provides swimming information. The present disclosure also relates to a self-learning system for water sport users which comprises a carrying camera, a computer and a learning network platform.

Claims

1. A self-learning system for water sport users, comprising:

a wearable camera device, which includes;

a fixing element wearable on a human body;

a bearing element coupled to the fixing element and having a bendable form and adjustable length; and

a waterproof camera disposed on the bearing element such that the waterproof camera is configured to have an adjustable angle for filming postures of a body doing water sport and converting the filmed image signals to digital signals for output;

a computer receiving and processing the digital signals of the wearable camera device; and

a learning data base read by the computer, having a water-sport learning module, and assessing water-sport postures via the water-sport learning module.

2. The self-learning system for water sport users according to claim 1, wherein the fixing element is a pair of goggles.

3. The self-learning system for water sport users according to claim 1, wherein the waterproof camera includes a casing, a lens disposed on one end of the casing, and an image sensor unit, a processor, a power supply unit and a storage unit disposed in the casing.

4. The self-learning system for water sport users according to claim 1, wherein the water-sport learning module further includes information on standard swimming instruction.

5. The self-learning system for water sport users according to claim 1, wherein the water-sport learning module further includes a function of image comparison to display incorrect aspects of water-sport postures.

6. A self-learning system for water sport users, comprising:

a wearable camera device, which includes;

a fixing element wearable on a human body;

a bearing element coupled to the fixing element and having a bendable form and adjustable length; and

a waterproof camera disposed on the bearing element such that the waterproof camera is configured to have an adjustable angle for forming postures of a body doing water sport and converting the filmed image signals to digital signals for output;

a computer receiving and processing the digital signals of the wearable camera device; and

a network learning platform, wherein the computer connects to the network learning platform through the internet, the network learning platform has an interactive water-sport learning module, and the network learning platform interactively assesses water-sport postures by using the interactive water-sport learning module.

7. The self-learning system for water sport users according to claim 6, wherein the fixing element is a pair of goggles.

8. The self-learning system for water sport users according to claim 6, wherein the waterproof camera includes a casing, a lens disposed on one end of the casing, and an image sensor unit, a processor, a power supply unit and a storage unit disposed in the casing.

9. The self-learning system for water sport users according to claim 6, wherein the interactive water-sport learning module further includes information on standard swimming instruction.

10. The self-learning system for water sport users according to claim 6, wherein the interactive water-sport learning module further includes a function of image comparison to display incorrect aspects of water-sport postures.
