A problem that has plagued both motor psychologists in studying human behavior, and robot designers in reproducing it, is how to quantify that behavior. It has been argued that kinematic and dynamic models are inadequate for explaining human movement unless they also include both the performance constraints and the objectives that affect the neural and neuromuscular inputs. With a dextrous, multi-fingered hand, multiple grasping solutions are possible. This chapter addresses the question faced by the controller, that of how best to use features of the hand to achieve the task goals, given anticipated object properties and predictable interaction outcomes. The opposition space model takes into account the hand’s ability to apply task-related forces while gathering sensory information, in terms of its precision and power capabilities. By separating implementation details from functional goals, the study of human hand functionality can lead to the design of better dextrous robot hands and their controllers.
