Thermal Video Dataset of Hand Gestures

Our dataset is captured with the FLIR Lepton 2.5 thermal camera, which comes with a radiometric shutter and a focal length of 80X60 pixels. The camera's spectral range is 8 µm to 14 µm, and it has a 63.5 degrees of diagonal field of view and a 50 degrees of nominal horizontal field of view. The camera uses a progressive scan array format of 80X60 pixels.

The dataset contains 990 sequences of thermal videos each made up of 15/10/5 frames. It's built up of 9 hand gestures, each with 10 classes within. We had eleven individuals do the gestures to ensure a variety of hand sizes, shapes, and temperatures.
