Hunter's comment
For gymnasts and athletes out there, this wearable device could be your best friend to give you feedback regarding your performance. This device aims for users to achieve implicit learning by providing auditory feedback to users in learning front flips.
This can be worn while performing but more ideally during practice sessions. As quoted from the web, this is
a wearable system with a simplified model of a front flip that compares a user’s time to peak rotation against their ideal time. As the user approaches their ideal performance, the system begins playing a chord, only completing the chord if the user manages to rotate at their ideal peak time.
It has four main parts; takeoff, rise to peak, rotation, and landing. It is worn around the ankle and
detects initial takeoff velocity and rotation during flipping, sends the state to a custom phone app which interpolates the chord and sends the user auditory feedback.

Thank you.
Howdy macoolette! This is an interesting invention, it would be cool if a gymnast is around to test it out. Do you do front flips? If you do I bet this device can improve your performance and you'd be even more impressive!
Do I do front flips? Oh my gosh! I can't even do cartwheel. How much more with front flips? I might break my back. 😃
oh you'd be fine, you just need some lessons on some thick mats, not those yoga mats! lol.
Nope. That yoga mat might fly me away like Aladdin's mat. 😄
haha! that's very true, that's a good one macoolette! Hey, you didn't believe my story about me being offline alot last week, that was completely true! lol. My mistake was thinking that the shut down for the contest was in the evening around 5, 6, or 7, our time. So I started hitting it hard Saturday night not knowing that those comments were going on last week's totals. Otherwise brittandjosie would have won which is what I was trying to make happen! lol.
It was actually an embarrassing, accidental win!
Ah, you don't have to defend yourself about the loss of internet. Of course we are just teasing because no one can beat you. 😂 And it is not embarassing to win even if you rushed for it. You worked for it so you certainly deserve it.
howdy tonight...well it's night time here...macoolette! Thanks for the kind words, this is one time that I didn't feel like I deserved it but that's the way it crumbled. Oh I've been beat before, when I wasn't trying very hard or at all! lol. Are you doing alot of curie commenting? you are so good at those! I haven't been over there for a couple of weeks.
I haven't been into curie commenting since early January. The last time I've been on it was the week that was crossing over December and January. I am not sure but I guess the corporate race is getting tougher and tougher. I noticed that I can't even be on Steemit as long as I had before during lunch break.
This is really good. With enough practice can make timing of flips better and surely help atheletes. So many parents send their kids for gymnastics. Great for their kids to get better.
For children, yes! I didn't think of that. Indeed, this will be good for young starters to have implicit feedback about their performance.
Thanks for dropping by.
Congratulations!
