ft-hands tracks with the mono IR cameras in dim light and with every
camera (or the colour pair, HANDS_BRIGHT) in bright light, going by the
colour frames' mean brightness with hysteresis and a 2 s hold
(HANDS_CAMERAS=auto, the default; mono, color and all fix it). Colour
frames are placed on the mono cameras' clock by their dequeue time, and a
view in a camera a step lacks waits for that camera's next frame.
A grip (a closed hand) is a second gesture next to the pinch, in version 2
of the gestures file: every fingertip curled toward the wrist, beginning
only on a hand seen open within a second and held up in front. On the
2026-09-30 lit recording that leaves 6 false grips of 14, all with the
hands on the desk; pinch counts are unchanged. ft-handreplay logs grips
and finger curl, watch_gestures.py shows them, and tools/cut_sets.py
copies a few sets out of a recording.

trackd/ becomes track/, and the calibration helper the Python tools
import moves from the prototype's folder into tools/. The model
development tools (nettest and the scripts that compare it with the
Python models or cut int8 calibration crops) stay in frame-hands with
the prototype they need.
