The Human Hand
  • Motion is induced by the application of
    musculo-skeletal control
  • We demonstrate planned motion of a human hand
  • Simulated hand has a 20 degree of freedom
    skeleton
  • Control is applied to the joint angles of the
    skeleton
  • Planning takes place in 20-dimensional joint
    configuration space
  • The planned path is executed in a simulated model
    of the human hand

4
The Hand Skeleton
  • The human hand may be modeled using a 20 DoF
    skeleton parameterization
  • Configuration of the human hand is represented by
    a 20 dimensional joint angle vector

Hand Space
5
Modeling the Hand
  • Hand-space models an actual human hand
  • The hand is represented by a mesh representation
    of a laser scanned hand
  • The parameterization allows the emulation of a
    real hand

Hand Space Configuration
6
Configuration Space
  • Hand motion is in 20 dimensional configuration
    space along the planned path

Connecting Samples
  • Obtain a roadmap in the form of a search graph
  • Connect each sample to 10 closest samples and
    check for collision
  • Reject connections with collisions

Planning Hand Motion
  • Add start and goal configuration nodes to graph
  • Search for a path in the graph

Resulting Path is Jerky due to imperfect
sampling!!

Discussion
  • Smoothing the path greatly improves motion
    quality
  • Adaptive Gaussian Sampling can drastically reduce
    the required samples but it also requires more
    precomputation
  • Straight line motion in higher dimensional space
    produces better quality than curved or spline
    motion.

Future Work
  • Areas for improvement
  • The project may be extended to involve
  • Control applied to muscular configuration space
  • Improved skeleton that closely matches a real
    hand
  • System dynamics such as inertia and damping
