Aggregate Constraints for Virtual Manipulation with Soft Fingers

In this work, we propose a new formulation of contact and friction laws, in the context of virtual graping. The work allows to reduce the number of contact and friction constraints, using volume interpenetration measure, instead of interpenetration distance. The work has been conducted in collaboration with Antony Talvas and Maud Machal (Inria Hybrid Team, Rennes) and Miguel Otaduy (URJC Madrid). It has been presented at the conference IEEE VR and published in the journal TVCG [5] .
