Towards Context-Aware Human-like Pointing Gestures with RL Motion Imitation

原文アブストラクト

Pointing is a key mode of interaction with robots, yet most prior work has focused on recognition rather than generation. We present a motion capture dataset of human pointing gestures covering diverse styles, handedness, and spatial targets. Using reinforcement learning with motion imitation, we train policies that reproduce human-like pointing while maximizing precision. Results show our approach enables context-aware pointing behaviors in simulation, balancing task performance with natural dynamics.
