Interaction with objects

[whoabeast]

I want to do two different types of interaction in Unity. First of all, I want to press E to be able to add an object to my hand. The hands are game objects and not on the user interface. I also want to open a box lid, so when I interact with the box an animation will occur where the box lid slides off the box. How do I do this?

Moved to 3rd Party products since you are focused specifically on how to implement this in Unity, as opposed this being a general C# question.
