- +
-The objective of the project is to implement var- +
-ious human-like grasping approaches in a game developed using [[https://www.unrealengine.com/|Unreal Engine]].  +
- +
-The game consist of a household environment where a user has to execute various given tasks, such as cooking a dish, setting the table, cleaning the dishes etc. The interaction is done using various sensors to map the users hands onto the virtual hands in the game. +
- +
-In order to improve the ease of manipulating objects the user should +
-be able to switch during runtime the type of grasp (pinch, power +
-grasp, precision grip etc.) he/she would like to use. +
-   +
-Requirements:  +
-  * Good programming skills in C++ +
-  * Good knowledge of the Unreal Engine API.  +
-  * Experience with skeletal control / animations / 3D models in Unreal Engine. +
-  * Familiar with version-control systems (git) +
