Abstract

An interactive athletic training system is described. The system provides real-time interaction among a set of student-users and a set of instructor-users. The interaction includes capture and provision of multimedia content, two-way audio and/or messaging communications, and sharing of existing content. Data related to each interactive session is stored and made accessible to the users for subsequent review, analysis, and/or feedback.

Claims

1. An automated method for providing real-time interactive athletic instruction, the method comprising:

receiving, at a server, multimedia content from a first user device associated with a student-user;

providing the multimedia content from the server to a second user device associated with an instructor-user; and

receiving, at the server, feedback from the second user device and providing the feedback from the server to the first user device.

2. The automated method of claim 1, wherein the multimedia content comprises video content captured by the first user device.

3. The automated method of claim 1, wherein the feedback comprises multimedia content captured by the second user device.

4. The automated method of claim 1 further comprising storing, at the server, the multimedia content and the feedback.

5. The automated method of claim 4 further comprising sending the stored multimedia content and feedback to a third user device associated with a third user.

6. The automated method of claim 1 further comprising sending a first notification via the first user device to the student-user and sending a second notification via the second user device to the instructor-user.

7. The automated method of claim 1 wherein the first user device comprises a camera and a display screen.

8. An automated method for reviewing athletic instruction, the method comprising:

receiving, at a server, a selection of a lesson from a user device;

retrieving, from a storage associated with the server, the selected lesson; and

sending, from the server to the user device, the selected lesson.

9. The automated method of claim 8, wherein the selected lesson comprises multimedia content.

10. The automated method of claim 9, wherein the multimedia content comprises content captured from a user device associated with a particular student-user and content captured from a user device associated with a particular instructor-user.

11. The automated method of claim 8 further comprising providing, from the server to the user device, a list of available lessons.

12. The automated method of claim 8 further comprising receiving feedback from the user device, wherein the feedback comprises a rating of at least one of the selected lesson and an instructor-user associated with the lesson.

13. The automated method of claim 8 further comprising receiving and storing journal data from the user device.

14. The automated method of claim 8 further comprising determining a user type associated with the user device.

15. A real-time interactive athletic instruction application comprising sets of instructions for:

receiving student login information;

providing a list of available instructors;

receiving a selection of an instructor; and

receiving a selection of a lesson start time.

16. The real-time interactive athletic instruction application of claim 15 further comprising sets of instructions for:

determining that the lesson start time is within a specified threshold;

sending a notification to the instructor; and

sending a notification to the student.

17. The real-time interactive athletic instruction application of claim 15 further comprising sets of instructions for:

providing an interactive lesson environment;

capturing data associated with the student;

capturing data associated with the instructor; and

storing the captured data to a server.

18. The real-time interactive athletic instruction application of claim 17 further comprising sets of instructions for:

receiving a selection of a stored lesson; and

providing captured data associated with the stored lesson.

19. The real-time interactive athletic instruction application of claim 17, wherein the captured data associated with the student comprises video data.

20. The real-time interactive athletic instruction application of claim 17, wherein the captured data associated with the instructor comprises multimedia data.
