The present disclosure is directed to a method and corresponding system that improves accuracy of a computer simulation of an original posture of a digital human model (DHM) relative to a target object. The method and system may obtain information associated with the original DHM posture. The obtained DHM posture information may include a position of a head of the DHM. The method and system may obtain information associated with the target object. The obtained target object information may include a size of the target object and an orientation of the target object. The method and system method may obtain a distance from the head of the DHM to the target object. In some embodiments, the system and method may generate a measure of vision (i.e., vision measure) of the DHM of the target object that the DHM is visually targeting. The system and method may generate the measure of vision based on one or more parameters which may include any of the obtained DHM posture information, the obtained target object information, and the obtained head-target (HT) distance. Based on the measure of vision, the system and method may generate a constraint of vision (i.e., vision constraint) of the DHM to the target object. Based on the vision constraint, the system and method may generate an updated DHM posture.

Method and system for vision measure for digital human models

An upper limb model of a virtual manikin includes a data conversion engine configured to produce converted data based on one or more data sets. Each data set represents dependencies between elements of the kinematic model. The upper limb model further includes a kinematic chain model configured to generate one or more constraints based on the converted data. The upper limb model also includes a posturing engine configured to determine, based on the one or more constraints, a trajectory from a first position to a second position. The kinematic model may further include a rendering engine configured to render a posture corresponding to the second posture. The elements of the kinematic model may include one or more of a clavicle, a scapula, a humerus, a forearm and a hand.
