EgoHand: Monocular 3D Hand Reconstruction from Egocentric Video

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

EgoHand is a monocular 3D hand reconstruction model that sets new state‑of‑the‑art results on egocentric video. It is trained on a curated 14‑million‑image corpus that blends synthetic data, in‑the‑wild video, and multi‑camera motion capture to balance diversity and supervision quality. The model uses SOMA‑Hand as its parametric representation, processes 2D hand crops with a transformer encoder, and incorporates camera cues and an auxiliary 2D branch to enhance geometric consistency and image alignment, achieving low inference latency and strong out‑of‑domain generalization on benchmarks such as HOT3D, ARCTIC, and H2O.

EventEgoHands++: Event-based Egocentric 3D Hand Mesh Reconstruction with Real Dataset

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.

ESTHER: Egocentric Stereo Hand Estimation and Reconstruction in the Wild

ESTHER is an end‑to‑end model for egocentric stereo hand reconstruction that integrates stereo geometry, temporal reasoning, and a suitable output representation for wearable cameras. It is trained on pseudo‑labels from a calibrated pipeline and introduces the ESTHER3D benchmark, which pairs a large in‑the‑wild training set with a motion‑capture test set of true metric ground truth. Experiments demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art accuracy, strong generalization, and robustness to missing views, dropped frames, and extreme lighting or motion blur, while preserving metric scale even when reduced to a single monocular view.

MINT: A Unified Model for World-Space Camera and Hand Motion Estimation from Scalable Egocentric Pipeline Supervision

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.
