Task library > Tool handling > Move hand to TCP

By means of this task, the human model guides its free hand to the working point (TCP) of a tool located in the other hand. It is about an auxiliary task which can be used for the simulation of the activities like “Putting on screw” or “Replacing bit”. The actual simulation of e.g. “Putting bit on screwdriver” is currently not possible. The task Move hand to TCP is used for the correct simulation and evaluation of the corresponding motions in a time efficient manner.

Subordinate tasks:

Move hand(s) on path

Parameter	Type	Mand.	Meaning
Tool to use	Object	yes	An object parameter for tool selection.
Move tool in front of body	Checkox	no	A decision parameter determining whether the tool will be maintained in the current posture or whether it will be guided in front of the body.
Move hand to opposite tool side	Checkbox	no	A decision parameter determining whether the hand will be placed on the opposite side of the working point or at the working point itself.
Lock leg movement	Checkbox	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.

iThe tool to be used must already be in one hand of the human model.
