Hi Charlie
We have use Poser to model hand postures (reaching, pointing, grasping etc) for our
research on motor imagery
Brady N, Maguinness C, Ní Choisdealbha Á (2011). 'My Hand or Yours? Markedly Different
Sensitivity to Egocentric and Allocentric Views in the Hand Laterality Task'. PLoS ONE
, 6 (8).
Pictures of the stimuli can be found at:
http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0023316
I am not sure how good the software would be at modelling the types of postures your
colleague is interested in. An alternative would be to enact the exact postures and use
motion tracking to code the positions of the wrist, finger tips and finger joints – we
have played about with hand recordings using a CODA 3-D Motion Analysis System (Charnwood
Dynamics, Leicestershire.) – I am sure they or some similar company would have texture
wrapping software ....

Dear All. I have had an email (below) from a senior
police officer from Cumbria who is interested in 3D modelling of hands. Does anyone have
any experience of this, or know of anyone who has? Feel free to contact Richard
directly. I think this application is for a court case. Regards, Charlie.

Are you aware or do any of your colleagues have knowledge of any research and or
applications that we can use within policing to demonstrate position of a persons ‘hands’
on say a persons neck or bottle etc and also the ability to manipulate the fingers to show
different positions etc?
