商品簡介
The five-year European research program SKILLS (Multimodal Interfaces for Capturing and Transfer of Skills) was conducted to evaluate and exploit robotic and virtual environment technologies for training specific skills. It set aside conventional common computer-assisted training simulators and developed a novel approach that generates new training scenarios in which users can have new experience in performing the devised task. This volume presents the scientific background, research outcomes, engineering developments, and evaluation studies from the project. The topics include developing training platforms in multimodal virtual reality environments, motion capture technologies for pose estimation, the digital representation and modeling of human skill, a design and evaluation of a multimodal virtual reality platform for rowing training, training platforms for industrial maintenance and assembly, and requirements and challenges for skill training in virtual reality.
