Abstract
The technology disclosed relates to motion capture and gesture recognition. In particular, it calculates the exerted force implied by a human hand motion and applies the equivalent through a robotic arm to a target object. In one implementation, this is achieved by tracking the motion and contact of the human hand and generating corresponding robotic commands that replicate the motion and contact of the human hand on a workpiece through a robotic tool.
