ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a motion template, a motion training device, a network of devices, and a method for enabling a student to interactively emulate in real time the dynamic motion of an instructor performing a selected motion. The device includes a video camera configured to transmit a real time background having a live image of the student dynamically performing the selected motion. A monitor is configured for viewing by the student while performing the selected motion. A motion template has a stored image of an instructor dynamically performing the selected motion. The device also includes means for superimposing the motion template onto the real time background and simultaneously displaying the resulting combination of the motion template and the real time background scene on the monitor. The device can further be one or many devices connected in a network sharing access to a database containing a library of motion templates of different instructors who are top performers in their field.
