Yoga is a mind-body practice known for its substantial psychological and physiological benefit, contributing to a healthy lifestyle. However, without professional guidance, individuals may experience reduced performance and increased risk of injury. While online yoga classes on platforms like Zoom have grown in popularity, tools to support instructors in accurately assessing and monitoring student performance remain insufficient. For certain populations, this lack of real-time professional guidance poses safety risks and limits the effectiveness of the practice. This study examined the effectiveness of using computer-vision-based visual augmentations in enhancing instructors' ability to assess student performance and ensure safety. Specifically, we investigated the effectiveness of various visual augmentations in aiding instructors' visual search for unstable or unsafe poses. Eleven certified yoga instructors (8 female, 3 male), each holding 200 to 500 RYT certifications, participated in the study. Instructors completed eight trials assessing 12 yoga poses using four different visual augmentations—Raw Video, Skeleton (joint locations overlay), Contour (participant outlines), and Contour + Skeleton—across two camera views (Single vs. Multiple Views). During each trial, eye-tracking data was collected as instructors identified potentially unstable (unsafe) poses, and they subsequently completed a usability questionnaire and NASA - TLX rating. Upon finishing all trials, instructors provided overall feedback on the usability of the visual augmentations and camera views Instructors showed no significant difference in their assessment performance across different visual augmentations and camera views. The Skeleton augmentation led to increased cognitive workload, as indicated by larger pupil diameters. The Contour alone augmentation was less effective for visual search based on the usability ratings, and combining Contour with Skeleton did not offer notable improvements. Simpler visualizations, such as Raw and Skeleton, received higher usability ratings, and instructors preferred Single View layouts over Multiple Views for their ease of use and lower cognitive demand. In conclusion, while Skeleton augmentation increased cognitive load, it did not significantly enhance visual search performance. Future research should explore alternative visual augmentation techniques and configurations to better assist instructors on performance assessment which increases overall performance while not substantially increasing cognitive workload. / Master of Science / Yoga is a great way to improve both mental and physical health. However, practicing yoga without proper guidance can sometimes lead to injuries or mistakes. With more people attending yoga classes online, like through Zoom, it's harder for instructors to closely monitor how their students are performing, which can reduce the safety and benefits of the practice. This study looked at whether certain computer tools could help instructors better see and correct their students' poses during online yoga classes. Eleven experienced yoga instructors tried out different visual aids while watching students perform yoga poses. These aids included a simple video, a video with lines showing where the students' joints were (called Skeleton), a video that showed just the outline of the student (Contour), and a mix of both (Contour + Skeleton). The instructors were asked to identify any unstable or unsafe poses while using these aids. The results showed that none of the visual aids helped the instructors spot mistakes better than regular video. While the Skeleton aid made the instructors work harder mentally, it didn't actually help them perform better. The instructors preferred using simple video over the more complex tools and found that using a single camera view was easier to work with. In short, more complex visual tools didn't help instructors improve their performance. Future studies should explore other ways, like using different camera angles or adding sound, to help instructors in online yoga classes.
