Abstract: Approaches presented herein provide for simulation of human motion for human-robot interactions, such as may involve a handover of an object. Motion capture can be performed for a hand grasping and moving an object to a location and orientation appropriate for a handover, without a need for a robot to be present or an actual handover to occur. This motion data can be used to separately model the hand and the object for use in a handover simulation, where a component such as a physics engine may be used to ensure realistic modeling of the motion or behavior. During a simulation, a robot control model or algorithm can predict an optimal location and orientation to grasp an object, and an optimal path to move to that location and orientation, using a control model or algorithm trained, based at least in part, using the motion models for the hand and object.

The first frame includes an upper plate, two inner side plates downward bent and extended from two sides of the upper plate, two outer side plates upward bent and extended from two inner side plates respectively and two fixing plates bent and extended from two outer side plates respectively.

The second frame is connected with the first frame and includes a top plate and two intermediate plates downward bent and extended from two sides of the top plate. Each intermediate plate is received in each groove. The top plate is formed over the upper plate. Therefore, the stability is maintained and the weight is reduced so that the material costs may be decreased.
