Move hand(s) on path

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

By means of this task, the human model moves its hand(s) along user-defined paths.

 

Subordinate tasks:

Move hand(s) to target

 

Parameter

Type

Mand.

Meaning

Path for the left/right hand

Path

yes

A path parameter defining the respective path for the hand to be followed.

Body movement type

Selection

no

A selection parameter used to select the upper body motion to be used.

Target to look at

Position

no

A coordinate parameter representing the point at which the human model will look.

Lock leg movement

Checkbox

no

When this parameter is activated the digital human model will use the path point's orientation for its hand posture prediction (see figure Direction of path points).

Use orientation

Checkbox

no

A decision parameter that determines whether the human model uses the orientation of the path points to move the hands to the target, see figure Direction of path points

Posture left/right hand / arm

Selection

no

A selection parameter defining different hand and arm positions for the current task and the subsequent tasks. For a detailed description, see chapter Performance library under Hand / arm position left / right).

Figure 195: Direction of path points

 

iAll selected path points should be within the reach of the human model.

iA path must be indicated for at least one hand.

iWhen fixing one hand, it remains at the target until a subsequent task cancels the fixation.
