Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In recent years, with the increase in the number of single-person households of the elderly, the importance of technologies to support the independent daily lives of the elderly has increased. In order to develop these assistive technologies, it is essential to understand the characteristics of human movement. In previous studies, we have focused on the pinching movements using the index finger and the thumb, which are basic in daily life such as "dressing" and "eating". We have studied the relationship between the posture of the index finger and the mother finger, and the relationship between the contact position of each finger with the object in the finger palmar. However, previous studies have only analyzed the momentary movement when the object is pinched. In this study, we will utilize the techniques and knowledge we have acquired so far to analyze the pinching motion to reveal the strategies by which humans recognize and grasp an object.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究で得られる知見は,ヒトが感覚的に行なっている動作の特徴を定量的に抽出した結果である.従来,ヒトが行っていた作業をロボットが代替する未来はそう遠くないことが想像できる.ロボットに代わりに作業をさせる場合,ヒトの動作により近い動きが再現できれば,作業の汎用性は大幅に広がる.そのようなロボットを開発するためにはヒトの様々な動作における特徴の知見を集めることは必要不可欠である.本研究はヒトの数ある動作の中でも極めて重要性の高い手指の巧緻動作における知見を抽出するものであり,創造性は極めて高いと考える.
