Abstract
When soccer coaches provide tactical knowledge to players, they use soccer tactic boards and films. However, players often struggle to understand the instructions because the players require spatial cognition skills to convert information from a bird’s-eye view or third-person view to a first-person view. Therefore, we have created a system that can present the content of instruction from a first-person perspective using a virtual space to support spatial cognition. According to the experiment result, the proposed system improved the players’ tactical understanding and tactical performance. To evaluate the system’s effectiveness, we conducted a comparative experiment in which tactical instructions were given from three different perspectives: first-person view, bird’s-eye view, and third-person view. According to the experiment result, the proposed system improved the players’ tactical understanding and tactical performance.
