UNIPI Dataset (August 2018)

Dataset Name: Human kinematics – 20 DoF (August 2018)

Research Group: UNIPI

Hand Type: Human Hand

Data Type: Human Motion Data

Data Structure: Joint Angles (rad)

Data Format: .dat

Sampling Rate: ThimbleSense

# of Actions: >20

# of Subjects: 6

Year: 2018

Description:

“NO_ThimbleSense_postures.dat” and “ThimbleSense_postures.dat” are Matlab cell arrays.
“NO_ThimbleSense_postures.dat” contain kinematic joint values in case of manipulation without rigid shells worn on the fingers.
“ThimbleSense_postures.dat” contain kinematic joint values in case of manipulation with rigid shells worn on the fingers.

The dimensions of 2 arrays are [6 rows (subjects) x 42 columns (21 objects x 2 trials)]. “Objects_Info.pdf” describes the sequence of objects.

Cells contain the identification of each grasp and consist of double arrays (rows (samples) x 20 columns (joint angles)). “Hand_Model_Sequence.png” describes the sequence of joint angles [rad].

sample_time = 0.02s
