Abstract :
Virtual manufacturing is a new multi-discipline research area. It immerses operators in virtual workcells and develops virtual reality and augmented design tools for the purpose of improving the efficiency and quality of manufacturing systems. This paper presents an approach of using data glove devices to create three-dimensional interfaces for object-manipulation and task-specification in virtual manufacturing applications such as mechanical assembly
