Step Up! is a web application that assesses whether your salsa dance steps align with the beat. It operates by playing music, utilizing your device's camera to capture your dance moves, and then presenting a score out of 100 along with a tip for improvement. Before using Step Up!, you need to position your smartphone or laptop approximately 2.5 to 3 meters away, low and angled upwards, ensuring your entire body is within the frame and well-lit.
Once set up, simply tap the camera button, raise both hands above your head to open the hands-up GUI, and choose the full sync option (stand still, then march to 16 clicks), then press the Start button. After dancing the basic for 30 seconds, read the score provided. The application runs entirely on your own device, as the pose model runs in the browser, and the video feed remains on your smartphone or laptop.
Step Up! assists learners of salsa who practice at home between classes by providing feedback that a teacher might provide in a regular class setting.
