Computational implications of modeling grasping as a form of (multiple-parallel) reaching.
Although it is true that the specific research on grasping has been dominated in recent years by the canonical transport + grip model originally formulated by Jeannerod (1984), still one can find in the research on reaching a number of links and anticipations to the new view on grasping made explicit by the authors of the target article. This paper reviews some of the relevant concepts and outlines a modeling framework that aims at biological plausibility.
