Abstract


Traditional physical education (PE) instruction suffers from delayed motion feedback, homogeneous guidance strategies, and the reinforcement of incorrect movement patterns. Existing sensor-based motion recognition systems often struggle to simultaneously achieve real-time responsiveness, personalized instruction, and robust adaptation to complex instructional scenarios. To address these challenges, this study proposes an intelligent PE system that integrates wearable sensors with smartphone-based interaction, forming a full-chain technical framework from multimodal data acquisition to adaptive intervention. The proposed system introduces several key innovations: (1) a multimodal semantic fusion strategy to enhance motion recognition accuracy and contextual understanding; (2) an early event detection mechanism that enables advanced prediction of motion errors and millisecond-level real-time feedback; (3) a personalized adaptive intervention mechanism that dynamically accommodates learners with different skill levels; (4) an edge-cloud collaborative architecture that balances real-time processing on mobile devices with in-depth analytical capabilities; and (5) the construction of a multimodal sports motion dataset and evaluation benchmark for instructional scenarios. This study provides a novel technical paradigm for intelligent mobile PE, and the released dataset and benchmarks offer valuable resources for future research, promoting the digitalization and intelligent transformation of physical education.
