Real-Time Pose Recognition Technology for Improving Tennis Learning in Individuals With Intellectual Disabilities

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 System (RPRS). 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.
