MINT is a foundation model that directly predicts world-space two-hand trajectories from egocentric RGB video, jointly estimating camera motion, hand states, and hand presence in a single spatiotemporal representation. It uses an open-source labeling pipeline, EGOPIPELINE, to generate large-scale pseudo-labels for pretraining, followed by fine-tuning on a small set of high-quality joint annotations. The model outperforms existing multi-stage approaches in accuracy and speed, and generalizes zero‑shot to unseen egocentric datasets.

MEgoVista is an offline pipeline that converts a single unprepared egocentric video into metric two‑hand and head motion within a gravity‑aligned world frame. It uniquely reconstructs motion in environments beyond studio volumes, uses calibrated stereo for absolute scale, and evaluates its outputs against independent optical capture to audit accuracy. The system thus expands the settings where high‑fidelity hand‑motion labels can be generated from natural, head‑worn recordings.

EventEgoHands++ is a new framework for reconstructing 3D hand meshes from egocentric event-based cameras. It introduces a Hand Detector that provides instance-level bounding boxes and masks for left and right hands, and an Adaptive Attention module that uses these detections to model spatial relationships and interactions. The authors extend the synthetic N-HOT3D dataset and create EEH‑R, a large real-world event-based egocentric hand dataset with about 1 million annotated frames, and show that their method outperforms existing baselines on both synthetic and real data.

TouchSight is a monocular egocentric vision framework that predicts dense full-hand contact forces from video. It uses 500 hours of pressure‑glove recordings and hand‑object interaction data, and introduces TwinTouch‑20H, a dataset of 20 hours of paired visual data where generative models render gloved recordings as bare‑hand observations while preserving tactile labels. The system outperforms prior methods on OakInk2, generalizes qualitatively to natural bare‑hand egocentric videos from unseen datasets, and improves consistently as glove supervision scales.
