The paper presents an analysis of human reaching movements in the manipulation of flexible objects. Two models, the minimum hand jerk and the minimum driving hand forcechange, are used for modelling and verification of experimental data. The data are collected with the haptic system supporting dynamic simulation of the flexible object in real time. We describe some initial experimental results ...

In this paper we describe the retrieval of some real fish properties to establish them on a virtual fish. These include swimming motions. We introduce a special function which extracts a definite description of a fish. We use polynomial interpolation and spline to estimate fish body changes (moves), then reproduce such on a display.
