毫米波雷达在人体动作识别与姿态估计方面展现出潜力,相比传统摄像头更隐私且抗遮挡,适用于人机交互与健康监护。然而现有系统多为固定部署,限制用户活动范围。本文提出mmEgoHand,一种头戴式视角自适应手部姿态估计与手势识别系统,结合毫米波雷达与惯性测量单元(IMU),通过主动补偿头部运动引起的雷达干扰,并采用端到端Transformer架构,实现多模态融合的3D手部关键点估计。该双模态框架完成雷达热图与IMU数据在时空上的对齐,解决视角不稳问题。实验在10名受试者执行8种手势、3种体位(站立、坐姿、躺姿)下取得90.8%识别准确率,显著优于现有方法。代码与数据集已公开于https://github.com/WhisperYi/mmVR。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Recent advancements in millimeter-wave (mmWave) radar have demonstrated its potential for human action recognition and pose estimation, offering privacy-preserving advantages over conventional cameras while maintaining occlusion robustness, with promising applications in human-computer interaction and wellness care. However, existing mmWave systems typically employ fixed-position configurations, restricting user mobility to predefined zones and limiting practical deployment scenarios. We introduce mmEgoHand, a head-mounted egocentric system for hand pose estimation to support applications such as gesture recognition, VR interaction, skill digitization and assessment, and robotic teleoperation. mmEgoHand synergistically integrates mmWave radar with inertial measurement units (IMUs) to enable dynamic perception. The IMUs actively compensate for radar interference induced by head movements, while our novel end-to-end Transformer architecture simultaneously estimates 3D hand keypoint coordinates through multi-modal sensor fusion. This dual-modality framework achieves spatial-temporal alignment of mmWave heatmaps with IMUs, overcoming viewpoint instability inherent in egocentric sensing scenarios. We further demonstrate that intermediate hand pose representations substantially improve performance in downstream task, e.g., VR gesture recognition. Extensive evaluations with 10 subjects performing 8 gestures across 3 distinct postures -- standing, sitting, lying -- achieve 90.8% recognition accuracy, outperforming state-of-the-art solutions by a large margin.
