Abstract This paper presents a calibration scheme and kinematic mapping to support dexterous telemanipulation. The calibration scheme is intended for use with an instrumented glove and permits an accurate determination of the intended motions of a virtual object grasped between a human operator’s thumb and index finger. The motions of the virtual object are then mapped to analogous motions of a scaled virtual object held in a two-fingered robot hand. A non-linear mapping scheme allows better utilization of the human and robot hand workspaces.
