+# MANUS Dataset Family
+
+**Multimodal Annotated Naturalistic Hand Understanding (MANUS)** is a family of source-specific multimodal hand-understanding dataset releases for naturalistic hand analysis, hand-aware image generation, 2D/3D hand understanding, depth estimation, and multi-view hand representation learning.
+
+MANUS does **not** use a single dataset-wide license. Each source-specific release is governed by its own upstream-compatible license. This landing repository indexes the available MANUS releases and explains the shared schema, license matrix, citation guidance, and loading pattern. It does not host source images, hand crops, depth maps, mesh renderings, or WebDataset shards.
+
+## Available Releases
+
+| MANUS release | Source data | Payload repo content | HF license metadata | Main constraint |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| MANUS-HaGRID | HaGRID / HaGRIDv2 | `hagrid_v1` and `hagrid_v2` train/test WebDataset shards | `other` | HaGRID-specific CC BY-SA 4.0 variant |
+| MANUS-DexYCB | DexYCB | `dexycb` test WebDataset shards | `cc-by-nc-4.0` | Non-commercial use only |
+
+Download each subset from its own repository and comply with the corresponding license:
+
+- MANUS-HaGRID: `QFun/MANUS-HaGRID`
+- MANUS-DexYCB: `QFun/MANUS-DexYCB`
+
+## Shared MANUS Modalities
+
+MANUS source-specific releases are designed around synchronized multimodal and multi-view annotations where available:
+
+- full-scene RGB image;
+- full-scene depth map;
+- hand-region RGB crop;
+- hand-region depth crop;
+- 2D bounding boxes for hand regions;
+- estimated MANO-style hand mesh annotations or related mesh metadata;
+- rendered mesh views from canonical viewpoints such as front, rear, left, right, top, and bottom;
+- companion text prompt files where provided by a source-specific payload release;
+- per-sample metadata recording source dataset, source id, split, available modalities, and license metadata.
+
+## Loading
+
+See `docs/loading_all_subsets.md` for examples that load MANUS-HaGRID and MANUS-DexYCB from their source-specific repositories.
+
+## Citation
+
+If you use any MANUS subset, please cite the MANUS / HanDrawer work and the upstream source dataset for the subset you used.

+## License
+
+This landing repository is an index for the MANUS dataset family. It does not grant a single license for all MANUS subsets.
+
+Each MANUS subset is governed by the license of its own repository and its upstream source dataset. See `docs/license_matrix.md` for details.
+
+Documentation and utility scripts in this landing repository are provided for release indexing and loading examples. Dataset files are not hosted here.
+
+## Intended Uses
+
+MANUS releases are intended for research on hand gesture understanding, hand-object interaction, hand-aware image generation, 2D/3D hand reasoning, depth estimation, and multimodal representation learning.
+
+## Out-of-Scope Uses
+
+MANUS releases should not be used for biometric identification, person recognition, surveillance, or privacy-invasive applications. Users must comply with the source-specific license and applicable laws.

+# MANUS Shared Annotation Schema
+
+MANUS payload repositories use source-specific WebDataset shards with a shared metadata convention.
+
+Common public manifest fields include:
+
+- `sample_id` / `manus_sample_id`
+- `config`
+- `split`
+- `source_dataset`
+- `source_version`
+- `source_split`
+- `source_image_id`
+- `source_license_id`
+- `source_license_name`
+- `contains_source_pixels`
+- `processing_pipeline_version`
+- `available_modalities`
+- `file_count`
+- `shard`
+
+Common modalities, where available:
+
+- `full_rgb`
+- `full_depth`
+- `hand_rgb`
+- `hand_depth`
+- `hand_bbox`
+- `hand_depth_bbox`
+- `vertices`
+- `mesh_front`, `mesh_back`, `mesh_left`, `mesh_right`, `mesh_top`, `mesh_bottom`
+- `six_view_bbox_*`
+- `extra_view_image_*`
+- `extra_view_bbox_*`
+
+Availability is source-specific and split-specific. Use each payload repository's manifest and release report for exact modality counts.

+
+This landing repository does not host data shards. Load each source-specific subset from its own payload repository.

+## MANUS-HaGRID

+```python

+
+hagrid_v1_train = load_dataset("QFun/MANUS-HaGRID", "hagrid_v1", split="train", streaming=True)
+hagrid_v2_test = load_dataset("QFun/MANUS-HaGRID", "hagrid_v2", split="test", streaming=True)

+# MANUS Release Policy
+
+MANUS is published as a family of source-specific repositories rather than one monolithic payload repository because the source datasets use different license terms.
+
+## Current Public Layout
+
+- `MANUS`: landing/index repository; no data payload.
+- `MANUS-HaGRID`: HaGRID/HaGRIDv2-derived payload repository.
+- `MANUS-DexYCB`: DexYCB-derived payload repository.
+
+## Policy
+
+1. Do not merge source datasets with incompatible licenses into one payload repository.
+2. Keep source-specific data files, manifests, license notices, and citations in their own repositories.
+3. Use this landing repository to document shared schema conventions, loading examples, and the license matrix.
+4. Public manifests should avoid local absolute build paths.
+5. Each payload repository must include its own checksum file and source license metadata.
