The zip contains right and left hand geometry images  from 112 participants. The images were captured using a Nikon D200 SLR camera (format: jpg, size: 3504x2336 pixels), with both the palm of the hand and camera facing downwards. Participants placed each hand on an acetate sheet with a series of positioning pegs.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The excel contains a series of length measurements (based on the underlying skeleton of the hand) manually extracted (see Figure 1 for details) along with demographic information from the participants: sex (male or female), height (in cm), weight (in kg) and foot size (in UK sizes).
