Challenge: 'Cannot be Seen in Videos' Hinders Coaching, Transfer, and Experience

In sports coaching, coaches may say "make your wrists softer" or "relax," but these instructions are often difficult for students to grasp. Videos only show form; they cannot capture physical sensations like "where tension is applied" or "when to relax."

Manufacturing faces similar challenges in skill transfer. The "hand movements" and "finesse in applying force" of experts cannot be fully captured in video manuals, remaining buried as tacit, person-dependent knowledge.

To address this "hidden physical knowledge" problem, Appirits Inc. is launching a "Physical AI Development Support Service" utilizing the BodySharing technology (digitization of muscle displacement sensors and proprioception) researched and developed by H2L Inc., a Tokyo University spin-off.

Service Overview: Implementing Physical Data into Practical Services

Appirits provides end-to-end support, combining physical data acquisition, AI analysis, and Web/App development, from conceptualization and PoC to MVP development, commercialization, and growth support.

### Four Use Cases - **Case 01 Sports Coaching**: Real-time comparison of professional movements with user form and force application. Generative AI verbalizes areas for improvement. - **Case 02 Fan Engagement**: Participatory content that compares user movements with an idol or athlete's motion data via synchronization rates. - **Case 03 New Revenue Menus for Facilities**: Visualizing form, force, and progress for events, premium lessons, and subscription models. - **Case 04 Skill Transfer**: Digitizing the hand movements and force of skilled technicians via sensors, with generative AI verbalizing tacit knowledge for training or robotics transfer.

Support Flow: From Conceptualization to Commercialization - **Phase 01 (2-4 weeks)**: Conceptualization and PoC design. - **Phase 02 (4-8 weeks)**: Prototype development. - **Phase 03 (2-4 months)**: MVP development and user validation. - **Phase 04-05 (Ongoing)**: Commercialization, growth, and expansion.

Technology Platform: H2L's BodySharing Technology Through its investment in H2L, Appirits incorporates the company's "FirstVR" muscle displacement sensors and BodySharing technology into its service implementations.
