Research Abstract |
This study was conducted to clarify the role of embodiment and action knowledge in 3-D object recognition. The following results were obtained :(1) Active exploration of novel 3-D object views facilitated subsequent view generalization in the right-screw direction that was easiest for rotation of the hand.(2) When common objects are recognized in non-upright views, in the case of graspable objects, views rotated in the right-screw direction about the horizontal axis was recognized faster than those rotated in the left-screw direction, and in the case of non-graspable large objects(e. g. bed, sofa), vice versa. This suggests that motor simulation, that is, imagined rotation of graspable objects by hand rotation, was utilized to recognize non-upright views. These results are the first experimental evidences that showed the effect of the biomechanical constraints of hands and action knowledge of objects on 3-D object recognition.
