Human Like Handwriting

This paper (Part II) investigates the motion of a redundant anthropomorphic arm during the writing task. Two approaches are applied. The "rst is based on the concept of distributed positioning which is suitable to model the`writinga task before the occurrence of fatigue symptoms. The second approach uses the concept of`virtual fatiguea (<F) which is a variable that dynamically behaves in a way analogous to the biological fatigue. <F enables the arm to recon"gure itself and take postures appropriate for the current level of fatigue. The study includes the analysis of legibility and inclination of handwriting, and a set of simulation results that show most practical aspects of robot human-like performance.
