Real-Time Pose Recognition Technology for Improving Tennis Learning in Individuals With Intellectual Disabilities
Sponsor: Burdur Mehmet Akif Ersoy University
Summary
This study investigates the effect of real-time pose recognition technology on learning tennis skills in individuals with mild to moderate intellectual disabilities. The study compares two training methods: traditional face-to-face tennis instruction and training supported by real-time pose recognition technology. Thirty participants aged 12-18 from special education institutions in Burdur, Turkey, were randomly assigned to either the experimental group using the technology or a control group receiving traditional instruction. The study aims to determine whether the use of real-time pose recognition improves tennis skill accuracy, learning speed, attention, and motivation compared to traditional methods.

Interventions
Real-Time Pose Recognition Technology Tennis Training
Participants perform tennis movements (forehand, backhand, serve) individually while the MediaPipe system provides real-time visual feedback on movement accuracy, records movement correctness, reaction time, and errors. Training occurs 3 times per week, 45 minutes per session, for 14 weeks. Instructors provide guidance focusing on system feedback.
Traditional Face-to-Face Tennis Training
Participants receive conventional tennis instruction from trainers, including demonstrations, manual corrections, and guidance on correct movement execution. Sessions occur 3 times per week, 45 minutes per session, for 14 weeks, following the same movement curriculum (forehand, backhand, serve). Weekly assessments include movement accuracy, error frequency/type, reaction time, and attention/motivation levels.
