Training device
First Claim
1. A training device (100) for training the course of movement of a person (22) by manipulating an object (38) to be moved by the person (22) in a predetermined manner, whereina data processing unit (10), first sensors (28, 30) connected with the data processing unit (10) and adapted to be placed on a person (22) which transmit first data in connection with the movement of the person (22) to the data processing unit (10, second sensors (40) connected with the data processing unit (10) and adapted to be placed on an object (38) which transmit second data in connection with the movement of the object (38) to the data processing unit (10), mechanical actuating means (42) connected with the data processing unit (10) and adapted to be placed on the object (38) which, actuated triggered by the data processing unit (10), simulate a contact with a virtual object (21) as a tactile acknowledgement to the person (22), an indicating means (26) connected with the data processing unit (10) and adapted to be placed on the person (22) and a memory (12) for reference data, whereby the data processing unit (10) is constructed in such a way that it calculates an ideal course of movement of body and object (38) from the reference data and alternatively represents (a) the ideal course of movement in the indicating means or (b) compares the ideal course of movement with an effective course of movement which results from the first and second data of the first and second sensors (28, 30, 40) or (c) simultaneously represents in the indicating means (26) the ideal course of movement and the effective course of movement detected by means of the first and second sensors (28, 30, 40).

Abstract
A training device for training the course of movement of a person by the manipulation of an object to be moved in a predetermined way has a data processing unit with which first sensors placed on the person are connected to transmit data of the movement to the data processing unit. Second sensors are placed on the object and connected to the data processing unit in order to transmit data of the movement of the object to the data processing unit. Mechanical actuating elements are placed on the object and connected to the data processing unit. They are triggered by the data processing unit to simulate contact with a virtual object as a tactile acknowledgement to the person. An indicator placed on the person and a memory for reference data are connected to the data processing unit, and the data processing unit calculates from the reference data the ideal course of movement of the body and the object and represents the ideal course of movement on the indicator.
