20080233548 | Method Of and Light System For Dance Instruction - A method of using lights and a light system for teaching dance, particularly to students with hearing impairments. The method or dance instruction includes a light bar having a plurality of first lights and second lights. The first and second lights are visually distinguishable. The first lights are turned on and off to display a pre-selected time signature pattern, and the second lights of the light bar are turned on and off to display a pre-selected and count time signature pattern. A light system for dance instruction includes a light bar having a first lights and second lights, which are visually distinguishable, and a control unit for: a) turning the first lights of the light bar on and off to display a pre-selected time signature pattern; and b) turning the second lights of the light bar on and off to display a pre-selected and count time signature pattern. | 09-25-2008 |
20090111077 | Computerized system and method using a symbolic language for dance - Disclosed is a system, method, and computer readable medium for choreographing and teaching dance using symbols to represent dance steps. Input via computer peripheral devices is received and mapped to one of a plurality of stored dance steps stored in memory. The dance steps can be expressed in a plurality of modes. The plurality of mapped dance steps is then ordered into a choreographed dance routine. A dance routine file containing the dance routine comprised of the plurality of ordered and mapped dance steps is then created. The dance routine file can be printed, stored, and/or displayed using computer peripheral devices. | 04-30-2009 |
20100112533 | System and method of training by providing motional feedback - A method is generally described which includes providing training by altering a user's motional response includes directing a user to perform specified motions in accordance with a training sequence and detecting the user's motions, by a feedback sensor device, the motions associated with the user. The method also includes generating, by the control program, control data based on the data representative of the detected motions and the training sequence. The control program is configured to receive data representative of the detected motions and to receive the training sequence. The control program has a control algorithm configured to generate control data based on the data representative of the detected motions and the information. Further, the method includes running the control program by a controller configured to output control signals based on the control data. Further still, the method includes delivering current, during a repeating phase in which the user is attempting to repeat the training sequence, from the current source to a vestibular stimulation device configured to deliver a stimulation current to at least one electrical contact, in response to the control signals. The at least one electrical contact is configured to contact flesh of the user. | 05-06-2010 |
