Now that the grasping strategy in VE has been solved, the next step is grasping any object in a VE, with minimum interaction with the user. In this paper, we develop a new strategy for autonomous grasping in a virtual environment, based on the knowledge of a few object attributes like size, task, and shape. When the object is input a VE, the user chooses the object from among others, chooses a task inherent to the object selected, and then we implement a semi-intelligence algorithm, which makes a decision about how to grasp the selected object. When the system makes a decision, it determines whether the object is in the workspace of the hand. If it is then grasps, if is not, the virtual human (VH) moves to closer to the object so that it is now graspable. 2011-02-17T16:52:25Z http://hdl.handle.net/2117/9761 Title: Entre la responsabilitat ambiental i la millora de la competitivitat Authors: Riba Romeva, Carles; González Benítez, María Margarita; Niembro García, Isabel Joaquina; Presas Renom, Andreu; Coll Raich, Judit 2010-10-18T11:01:32Z http://hdl.handle.net/2117/7852 Title: From anthropocentric design to ecospheric design: questioning design epicentre Authors: García Acosta, Gabriel; Riba Romeva, Carles 2010-06-27T19:12:27Z
