Virtual Human Hand: Grasping and Simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The human hand is the most complete tool, able to adapt to different surfaces and shapes and touch and grasp. It is a direct connection between the exterior world and the brain. I. Kant (German philosopher) defined how the hand is an extension of the brain. In this paper we present and develop a new algorithm for grasp any object in a virtual environment (VE). The objective is to present a novel theory for grasping in the VE any object with the virtual human (VH). The novel concepts for this application are the autonomous grasp, implementation of several types of grasp, and a new algorithm for grasp.

Hand Motion and Grasping: Capturing, Recognizing and Synthesizing
In this paper we review the various previous methods in vision-based hand motion analysis and hand motion synthesis and grasping. We present our two solutions to the problem. First, we present an articulated hand pose estimation scheme, in which we improve the regression forest based methods by incorporating high-level hand part feature and hand motion constraints. Second, we present a framewor...
متن کاملGraspIt!: A Versatile Simulator for Grasp Analysis
We have created a unique tool for grasp simulation, visualization, and analysis that allows a user to create and analyze grasps of a given 3D object model with a given articulated hand model. The grasps can be performed either automatically, where the system closes the fingers around the object at preset velocities, or manually through direct manipulation of the joints. As collisions occur betw...
متن کاملDesign of a 2-finger Hand Exoskeleton for Vr Grasping Simulation
There are numerous applications of VR simulation requiring the grasping and manipulation of virtual objects. Standard-use haptic interfaces (e.g. PHANToM) allow only a limited level of realism, as grasping is approximated through a metaphor (e.g. pressing a button for grasping an object). Existing hand exoskeletons have also certain drawbacks (e.g. feedback only for finger flexion, limited fing...
متن کاملDesign of an Immersive Peripheral for Object Grasping
During product development processes, simulations involving user’s grasping operations are of increasing interest to incorporate more quantitative information in DFA (Design For Assembly) or immersive simulations. We present several prototypes of an immersive peripheral device for controlling a virtual hand with fine dexterity. These prototypes are derived from the analysis of a grasping action...
متن کاملA Spring Model for Whole-Hand Virtual Grasping
We present a physically-based approach to grasping and manipulation of virtual objects that produces visually realistic results, addresses the problem of visual interpenetration of hand and object models, and performs force rendering for forcefeedback gloves, in a single framework. Our approach couples a simulationcontrolled articulated hand model to tracked hand configuration using a system of...
