Variational Object-aware 3D Hand Pose from a Single RGB Image

The implementation of our paper accepted in IROS 2019 - jointly presented in IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters

Authors: Yafei Gao, Yida Wang, Nassir Navab and Federico Tombari

Dataset

This dataset provides 11020 samples. Each sample provides:

• RGB image (320x320 pixels);
• Segmentation mask (320x320 pixels) for hand
• Segmentation mask (320x320 pixels) for object
• 21 Keypoints for hand with their uv coordinates in the image frame and their xyz coordinates in the camera coordinate system
• Intrinsic Camera Matrix

It was created with freely accessible character from MakeHuman and rendered with Blender

Introduction

The dataset ships with minimal examples, that browse the dataset and show samples. There is one example for Phython and one for MATLAB users, both functionalities are identical. Both files are located in the root folder.

Download

You can find download.py from here, then run it under your data folder:

python download.py -o ./<DATA FOLDER>/
