| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Based on special needs by blind bowling players, a support system was developed and estimations of the system were conducted. The system aims to establish a function of detection a throwing motion and displaying it, a function of speaking a state of remaining pin(s) and a ball trajectory. As a result, it was shown that a timing of throwing a ball can be detected by data from a wireless acceleration sensor on the arm. The function of speaking remaining pins works almost perfectly employing image processing. It can practically support the player in the training. About the function of speaking a ball trajectory, a depth sensor fixed over the lane was available to detect the trajectory on the area of arrow marks.
Addition to them, an unexpected effect is observed, which is the speech information is important not only for the player but also for audiences who are blind and stay around the area.
