# hamer (code/)

The `hamer` Python package: HaMeR hand mesh recovery on a Tenstorrent Blackhole chip, plus its HTTP server
(`hamer.server.app`).  Install into an environment that already has a built tt-metal / ttnn:

```bash
pip install -e code/            # or: pip install code/
```

```python
from hamer import HamerModel

with HamerModel.from_pretrained(device_id=0) as model:   # also warms up all call variants
    hand = model("media/sample1.jpg", bbox=[20, 170, 295, 260], is_right=True)   # path relative to the repo root
```

`from_pretrained` warms up the device and all call variants, so the first call is as fast as the later calls.
Install `code/[server,test]` for the HTTP server and the tests.
