In this paper, we propose a new approach to model interactions through a skinning method. Skinning is a frequently used technique to animate a mesh based on skeleton motion. In the case of a hand motion sequence used to manipulate and grasp virtual objects, it is essential to accurately represent the contact between the virtual objects and the animated hand. To improve the level of realism, our...

With increasing use of robots instead of human in industrial, medicine and military applications etc. the importance of research on designing and building of robots is increasing. In this paper various methods of the human hand motion simulation has been investigated and we used one of most common method named Data-gloves which extract data from hand and then we simulated hand motion during sev...

Figure 1: Previs: (a) drawing, (b) hand-modeled hair volumes. Grooming: (c) Tonic tubes (˜50 tubes), (d) Tonic center curves and region maps,(e) guide hairs interpolating volumes (˜1000). Simulation: (f) hair rig, (g) simulation curves (˜100 sim curves, motion of guide curves is interpolated from sim curves:˜1000 guide curves). Render: (h) test render (˜400,000 rendered curves).

Recently, researchers have measured hand movements en route to choices on a screen to understand the dynamics of a broad range of psychological processes. We review this growing body of research and explain how manual action exposes the real-time unfolding of underlying cognitive processing. We describe how simple hand motions may be used to continuously index participants' tentative commitment...
