- The hand-work protocol says no sensor will cover finger pads during tasks; the kit image is explicitly not a recording.
Field notes
Cr4dle divides the proposed work into hand-task and shared-space lanes. It says raw signal remains on-device, while only features, poses, and redacted video leave with consent. For hand tasks, the page says no sensor will cover finger pads. The walking study would examine where consenting people pass, slow down, and make room; accompanying scenes are explicitly illustrations, not recorded data or a trained model.
