## What it is
A curated awesome-list of research papers, datasets, evaluation resources, workshops, and challenges for hand pose estimation and tracking. It organizes publications from arXiv, journals, and conferences (CVPR, ICCV, ECCV) from 2014 to 2025.

## Use cases
- find papers on 3d hand pose estimation
- find datasets for hand tracking research
- survey the state of the art in hand keypoint detection
- compare benchmark results for hand pose estimation methods
- get started researching hand mesh reconstruction
- find egocentric hand pose datasets

## When to avoid
- you need working code or a ready-to-use hand tracking model rather than a paper list
- you need a maintained software library with an API

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: computer-vision, machine-learning, documentation
- domain: computer-vision, deep-learning, artificial-intelligence, tutorials, awesome-lists
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: awesome-list, hand-pose-estimation, hand-tracking, 3d-pose, research-papers, datasets, keypoint-detection
