Project Website

The Master Motion project is using an optical motion capture system and wireless VR to explore how virtual reality can be used to learn physical movement. The goal is to create a Tai Chi trainer in which students train one on one with a virtual master. As students try to match the motions of the master, their own movements will be measured by the optical motion capture system and they will receive constant feedback on the accuracy of their movement.
