JIIOV Technology is a leading biometric recognition solutions provider. We are now working on Extended Reality (XR) hand interaction algorithm and modules.
We transplanted simpleHand design into realworld device to make a practically test. It shows advantages especially in finger interaction senario, while retains realtime efficiency. Additional videos showcasing a comparison between our method and both Quest and AVP will be made available soon.

Methodology

We propose simpleHand, a simple yet effective baseline that not only surpasses state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods but also demonstrates computational efficiency. SimpleHand can be easily transplant to mainstream backbones and datasets.
SimpleHand consists a backbone and a mesh decoder, while mesh decoder is abstracted into a token generator and a mesh regressor.
From functional perspective, Token generator samples representative tokens using predicted 2d keypoints. Mesh regressor cascadely lifts the sampled tokens into meshes. We proposed a concept of "CORE STRUCTURE", which is the minimum structure that meets these functions.


Results and Comparisons

SimpleHand found the component with the greatest performance gain and implemented them using the simplest structure. Therefore, it has good performance in both efficiency and accuracy.
Comparison to existing work
SimpleHand capitalizes on the strengths of existing methodologies, thereby outperforming them in numerous challenging scenarios.This is particularly evident in intricate finger interactions, like pinching or twisting, as well as in complex and unconventional gestures.
