A fingertips-based approach to select maintenance tool automatically in virtual environment

Virtual maintenance plays an important role in improving product maintainability at the early stage of design and its simulation provides an economic and efficient method for product design and analysis. However, while carrying on simulations, it is cumbersome for operators to adjust the hand joints one-by-one to match the virtual tools to the virtual hand. Furthermore, it’s repetitive to complete the action frames with the aid of kinematic...
