EGOCENTRIC DATA COLLECTION & ANNOTATION

Egocentric Collection.
The human perspective.

Egocentric data for the next generation of physical AI. Bring first-person video, human actions and hand–object interactions into one purposeful dataset.

M coding / FOOTAGE LIBRARY

Work in motion.
Detail in every frame.

Explore hand interactions across real tasks. Play each study to inspect the movement and its automatic labels.

01 / HAND LANDMARKS

Assembly hand tracking

Multicolor palm and finger overlays follow the hands through the assembly task. Automatic estimates require review.

02 / HAND KEYPOINTS

Surface-work hand tracking

Repeated hand movement across a work surface, with estimated wrist and finger landmarks. Motion blur causes tracking gaps.

M coding / 3D HAND MOTION

See the movement.
Understand the hand.

Follow the assembly task through an estimated 3D hand-pose view. The original viewpoint appears alongside, connecting each movement to the work.

Model-estimated hand motion. Hands are centered independently; this is not a calibrated scene reconstruction.

02 / DATA ANNOTATION

From first-person view
to structured labels.

Start with the human view. Define the actions, objects and moments your model needs to understand.

ENGAI / ANNOTATION WORKSPACE
Cleaning footage at source time 80 seconds with model-estimated multicolor hand keypoints
Source by Kaggle dataset / Source 01:20 / Automatic hand landmarks
MODEL-ASSISTED FRAME

The same frame.
A clearer view of motion.

Compare the original frame with multicolor hand landmarks from the video model. Each finger chain has its own color. Overlapping hands and hidden joints still need human review.

  • Define the task and capture viewpoint
  • Label hands, objects and interaction events
  • Review visibility, occlusion and action timing

02 / DATA ANNOTATION

Annotation pricing.

$0.015 / object

Published USD keypoint annotation reference. Video frame density, hand landmarks, action labels and specialist review are quoted separately.

  • Hand keypoints and object regions
  • Action and interaction labels
  • Visibility checks and quality review

The reference rate is not a per-joint, per-frame or full egocentric dataset price. See published pricing

A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS

Before we start.

Can we combine collection and annotation?

Yes. Scope them together in your pilot brief, including capture tasks, participant consent, annotation guidelines, review criteria and delivery format.

Can we use our existing videos?

Share your footage requirements and an approved sample through the project discussion. We can scope annotation around the available viewpoints, image quality and usage rights.

What does the annotation sample show?

A real cleaning frame with automatic hand landmark estimates, alongside timecoded action descriptions in the featured video. Model outputs require human review, especially during occlusion.

How is the final price confirmed?

The published keypoint rate is a general reference. Collection figures are indicative and vary by project, product and client. The camera setup, billing unit and final rate are agreed in the quote. Equipment is provided or arranged by the client. Annotation, frame density, 3D work and quality review are scoped separately.

PROJECT DISCUSSION

Discuss your requirements first. Pilot scope and payment terms are agreed in your project quote.
