| Summary: | Thesis (M. Eng.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2004. === Includes bibliographical references (leaves 38-39). === Currently there is no way for a group of individuals to receive scientific feedback on a set of motions they are trying to master. The goal of this thesis is to create a tool that allows a motion instructor to fully accommodate the needs of her students in a multi-student class situation, using a state of the art motion analysis system as a basis. Motion instructor is defined as a person who teaches a student the proper way to manipulate the student's body to achieve some end (i.e. athletics coach, handwriting teacher, golf professional, etc.). The iClub golf motion analysis system from Fortescue Corporation was used as a motion analysis system as the basis for this study. The iClub was augmented from a single user-receiver system to a multi-channel device to allow for group situations. Scanning capabilities were added to a receiver, to allow the instructor the ability to cycle among students. A signature system was created that allows the instructor to quickly scan the ability level and progress of an individual. === by Zachery A. LaValley. === M.Eng.
