Cyber Coach

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cyber Coach is a Virtual Dance Instructor and Dance Mat system created by Quick Controls Ltd of Bolton, UK.[1][2][3]

The system comprises a touch screen controller, a projector, sound system and some dance pads.

The dance pads are wireless and can be used to play one of several games including: Space Blaster, Disco Disco, Nimbler Numbers and Wiggle.

The system was shortlisted for a BETT Award in 2009 [4] and won a National Business Award for Innovation in 2009.[5]

Lancashire Grid for Learning undertook a comprehensive review of the system in 2009 and endorsed the system to their schools.[6]

A version for primary schools called "Cyber Coach Smart" has been launched.[7]

In 2017, Cyber Coach and Manchester Metropolitan University launched Emile Education
