Outline of Final Research Achievements

Biofeedback system that integrates marker positional data obtained by 3D-motion analysis system and force sensors were developed in this study. We used this system for bike training and investigated the effect of using the biofeedback system. By introducing the biofeedback system, subjects were able to recognize which part of the motion they need further modification from objective data. As a result, improvement in bike pedaling was observed in the condition that made use of the biofeedback training.
