Hello to all of this magnificent community!
I have this problem I had already spent a few days on and still can't
figure out a proper solution.
So, given the x,y,z coordinates of a target object and the offset x,y,z of
arms of a robot, what is a good algorithm to perform to grab the object
between the hands (either from both sides or from below all using both
hands).
Specifically, my problem is applied to a NAO robot environment where I
retrieve a target object coordinates using the following code:
tracker_service= session.service("ALTracker")
xyz_pos = tracker_service.getTargetPosition(motion.FRAME_TORSO)

Then I get to move the right arm towards nearby the object using the
following code:
effector = "RArm"
frame = motion.FRAME_TORSO
effector_offset =
almath.Transform(self.motion.getTransform(effector, frame, False))
effector_init_3d_position = almath.position3DFromTransform(
effector_offset)
target_3d_position = almath.Position3D(target_position)
move_3d = target_3d_position - effector_init_3d_position
moveTransform = almath.Transform.fromPosition(move_3d.x,
move_3d.y, move_3d.z)
target_transformer_list = list(moveTransform.toVector())
times = [2.0]
axis_mask_list = motion.AXIS_MASK_VEL
self.motion.transformInterpolations(effector, frame,
target_transformer_list, axis_mask_list, times).

This question is specific to NAO environment but in general how to go
about this task? what is a most common algorithm used in this case? Do
I have to also get the side of the object in order to know where
exactly the arms should be placed?
