MacroHands: SOTA 3D hand tracking from egocentric video beats all open baselines
gui_penedo · x · 2026-11-12
Macrodata Labs released MacroHands, a family of 3D hand tracking and camera pose models for egocentric video in mono and stereo. MacroHands-Mono beats every open-source baseline tested (32.2mm on SHOW3D vs 55.9 for HaWoR); Stereo cuts error to 13.1mm. It handles partial and brief full occlusions (80% hand detection vs 59% for baselines), distinguishes wearer from others (0.2% vs 24% for HaWoR), works with gloves, and delivers SOTA camera pose with 4x less drift than DROID-SLAM when IMU is available.
