This paper suggests a solution to the specification problem inherent in writing programs for manipulators with many degrees of freedom. It introduces a mechanism called tagged potential fields, which can be used to economically specify a complex manipulator configuration. Some examples are demonstrated for preshaping a dextrous hand, and some of the possible future applications previewed.
