This book looks at the common problems both human and robotic hands
encounter when controlling the large number of joints, actuators
and sensors required to efficiently perform motor tasks such as
object exploration, manipulation and grasping. The authors adopt an
integrated approach to explore the control of the hand based on
sensorimotor synergies that can be applied in both neuroscience and
robotics. Hand synergies are based on goal-directed, combined
muscle and kinematic activation leading to a reduction of the
dimensionality of the motor and sensory space, presenting a highly
effective solution for the fast and simplified design of artificial
systems. Presented in two parts, the first part, Neuroscience,
provides the theoretical and experimental foundations to describe
the synergistic organization of the human hand. The second part,
Robotics, Models and Sensing Tools, exploits the framework of hand
synergies to better control and design robotic hands and
haptic/sensing systems/tools, using a reduced number of control
inputs/sensors, with the goal of pushing their effectiveness close
to the natural one. Human and Robot Hands provides a valuable
reference for students, researchers and designers who are
interested in the study and design of the artificial hand.

Il volume si pone l'obiettivo di scoprire, affrontare e analizzare
un tema, l'ultima creativita, che la psicologia, le neuroscienze e
la medicina non hanno mai pienamente esaminato. L'ultima creativita
rappresenta la forza dello spirito innovativo, la tendenza a
cogliere quanto l'esistenza propone, fino al termine: verso la
conclusione della vita puo mantenersi attiva la fantasia, non nel
significato di evasione allegorica da una realta che talora appare
avversa, ma in quello di ricerca della verita narrativa e della sua
realizzazione. Questo argomento puo suscitare e incontrare
interesse o curiosita presso studenti, ricercatori, professionisti
della salute e tutti coloro che riconoscono nello svolgersi della
vecchiaia un'opportunita di apprendimento, crescita e riscoperta di
qualita e risorse. Il testo si colloca in uno spazio nuovo della
ricerca sulla creativita, approfondendone il ruolo e il significato
piu profondo e forse anche quello piu vero.
