Thanks Tanguy! I'll check if it's suitable for me.

Woooow, great ! Can I use it? I would need a finger tracker to move my robotic hand. This way I can avoid buying tacking gloves! Did you make it with opencv? Or is it already provided by some lib ?

Thanks! I didn’t build it from scratch — I’m using @mediapipe/tasks-vision, which provides hand-landmark detection. It works great, but the downside is that you currently have to run it inside a web app.
