Abstract

This article proposes a self-training system of chest compression, one of the important methods of emergency life-saving, with augmented reality (AR) technology, which decreases barrier of the practical learning and contributes to improvement of the learner’s skill. The system is built on a see-through head-mounted display (HMD) with camera and computer. For a user wearing the system who practices the chest compression with a training manikin by him/herself, it provides feedback on posture, depth and rate superimposed on the HMD. Making the user easily learn the chest compression by his/herself in real-time without his/her additional actions/movements such as confirmation of his/her operation by video, the system is expected to contribute to a practical and fundamental self-learning tool of the emergency life-saving operation.
