putEMG—A Surface Electromyography Hand Gesture Recognition Dataset

In this paper, we present a putEMG dataset intended for the evaluation of hand gesture recognition methods based on sEMG signal. The dataset was acquired for 44 able-bodied subjects and include 8 gestures (3 full hand gestures, 4 pinches and idle). It consists of uninterrupted recordings of 24 sEMG channels from the subject’s forearm, RGB video stream and depth camera images used for hand motion tracking. Moreover, exemplary processing scripts...
