When vision is regarded as a haptic sense, a new operational description is called for, in support of desirous manipulation. In the content of two-fingered grasp, an appropriate description can be constructed in terms of local reflectional and rotational symmetry. Related to symmetry-based representations that have been used in pattern and object recognition, its structure is determined, not heuristically, but precisely, by the natun of the grasping task. Its value is demonstrated by its incorporation into the control of a robot that can manipulate objects under visual guidance.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/grasping-visual-symmetry/}, pages = {724-733}, edition = {Proc. 4th Int.
