New Training Method for Non-Dominant Hand Pitching Motion Based on Reversal Trajectory of Dominant Hand Pitching Motion Using AR and Vibration

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new method for non-dominant limb training. The method is that a learner aims at a motion which is generated by reversing his/her own motion of dominant limb, when he/she tries to train himself/herself for non-dominant limb training. In addition, we designed and developed interface for the new method which can select feedback types. One is an interface using AR and sound, and the other is an interface using AR and vibration. We found that vibration feedback was effective for non-dominant hand training of pitching motion, while sound feedback was not so effective as vibration.
