| Research Abstract |
The aim of this research project is to understand the essential meaning of human motion, behavior, and skills based on the skill organizing mechanisms and modeling techniques obtained in the field of Robotics, and to apply it to human sciences and emgineerings, rehabilitation, and sport sciences.
As concerns "perception", we proposed a method of recovering surfaces by actively moving a stereo camera system like human beings. As for the connection between "perception" and "action", we proposed a simple visual servoing scheme based on the use of binocular visual space, a model of the binocularly-perceived space employed by physiologists and psychologists. A hand-eye system, which has a similar kinematic structure to a human being, makes it possible to generate joint velocities from image observations using a constant linear mapping.
We also investigated a system for coaching novice gymnasts in performing the kip based on detailed body information.
