The human hand and its dexterity in grasping and manipulating
objects are some of the hallmarks of the human species. For years,
anatomic and biomechanical studies have deepened the understanding
of the human hand's functioning and, in parallel, the robotics
community has been working on the design of robotic hands capable
of manipulating objects with a performance similar to that of the
human hand. However, although many researchers have partially
studied various aspects, to date there has been no comprehensive
characterization of the human hand's function for grasping and
manipulation of everyday life objects. This monograph explores the
hypothesis that the confluence of both scientific fields, the
biomechanical study of the human hand and the analysis of robotic
manipulation of objects, would greatly benefit and advance both
disciplines through simulation. Therefore, in this book, the
current knowledge of robotics and biomechanics guides the design
and implementation of a simulation framework focused on
manipulation interactions that allows the study of the grasp
through simulation. As a result, a valuable framework for the study
of the grasp, with relevant applications in several fields such as
robotics, biomechanics, ergonomics, rehabilitation and medicine,
has been made available to these communities.
