Publication number: 20200020311Abstract: A low-cost and high-compatibility optical pickup including a light source, one set of optical sensors, and a controller. The light source illuminates a string assembled on an instrument. The set of optical sensors corresponding to the light source is provided to sense the shading of the string. The controller supplies the sensed data from the set of optical sensors to a system host for recognition of the melody played on the string. Considering the other strings assembled on the instrument, the optical pickup includes other sets of optical sensors to sense the shading of the other strings which are also illuminated by the light source. The controller also supplies the sensed data of the other sets of optical sensors to the system host for recognition of the melody played on the other strings.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2018Publication date: January 16, 2020Inventors: Min-Chun HU, Chi-Po LIN, Yu-Lun HSU, Yu-Chen CHIU

Publication number: 20180339215Abstract: A virtual reality (VR) training system for a team sport, which implements tactical training in a VR environment. A server generates VR content based on target trajectories of a trainee in a tactic. A VR device (e.g., including a VR head-mounted display) receives the VR content to display the virtual environment and instructs the trainee to practice the target trajectories. The VR device further provides a motion sensor device that detects and returns the head pose, actions, and positions of the trainee to the server. The server updates the VR content according to the head pose, actions, and positions of the trainee. The target trajectories are further marked with timing and head orientation to instruct the trainee when to execute each trajectory and where to look for catching ball opportunity.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 27, 2017Publication date: November 29, 2018Inventors: Min-Chun Hu, Ming-Fen Chung, Wan-Lun Tsai, Tse-Yu Pan, Yu-Lun Hsu
