Design And Development On Wearable Products Used For Monitoring Dribble Posture In Youngster Basketball Dribble Training

The youngsters referring to in this study are those who are receiving physical education for the non-sport students in schools and basketball enthusiasts.In the process of receiving physical education,the young students do not get enough tips and correction from their teachers because of the low teacher-student ratio and the low chance of get a personal trainer.This thesis aims to propose a low-cost product called DribbleAid to help those youngsters complete self-service basketball dribble training after school or in class,which is used to monitor common posture issues and give reminders to users during dribble training for the problem reffered above.The paper mainly introduces DribbleAid's research process through user research,conceptual design,prototype development,experimental research,high-fidelity product development and product user testing.The paper first finds and confirms the real pain points in the context of juvenile dribble training by searching for literature methods,expert interviews,questionnaire surveys,and field research.Then finishing DribbleAid's product concept design,including the determination of product form,wear,modeling,interaction and overall product logic with the user research results.Through the development of the prototype,the functions and algorithms involved in the conceptual design are studied,and the product concept has high feasibility.The experimental research describes in detail how to determine the "bad posture" judgment conditions involved in the paper,to ensure that DribbleAid's dribble monitoring meets the real trainer's monitoring standards.The research finally completed the development of Dribble Aid's high-fidelity prototype through interaction design,visual UI design,and front-end development,and through the user's trial to determine whether DribbleAid is beneficial to solve the problem of pain points in the young basketball dribble training scene.Thesis conclusions: 1)Determined the pain points in the training drips for young basketball players;2)Completed a more systematic conceptual design of Dribble Aid;3)Determined “bad postures” in different dribble determination methods and related algorithms,4)Developed high-fidelity DribbleAid prototype,and verified the effectiveness of the function and the rationality of the design through user trials.
