Abstract:In order to grasp an object successfully, we must select appropriate contact regions for our hands on the surface of the object. However, identifying such regions is challenging. Here, we describe a workflow to estimate contact regions from marker-based tracking data. Participants grasp real objects, while we track the 3D position of both the objects and the hand including the fingers' joints. We first determine joint Euler angles from a selection of tracked markers positioned on the back of the hand. Then, we… Show more
