Abstract

The disclosure includes a system and method for determining posture data for a user based on observation of the user, generating user model data describing one or more user models, determining user preferences data describing the preferences of the user for receiving an object, generating two or more reach simulations that simulate the user reaching for different points inside a user environment to receive the object, each reach simulation resulting in a hand of the user arriving at a three-dimensional point in the user environment, analyzing the reach simulations to assign a value to each three-dimensional point in the user environment, grouping the three-dimensional points into one or more clusters of similar points to form candidate zones including one or more points inside the user environment where a robot can place the object for handover to the user, and ranking the candidate zones.
