Abstract: Examples are disclosed that relate to representing recorded hand motion. One example provides a computing device comprising a logic subsystem and a storage subsystem comprising instructions executable by the logic subsystem to receive a recorded representation of hand motion determined relative to a virtual model aligned to a first instance of an object, receive image data corresponding to an environment, and recognize a second instance of the object in the environment. The instructions are further executable to align the virtual model to the second instance of the object, and output a parametric representation of hand motion for display relative to the virtual model as aligned to the second instance of the object, such that the parametric representation is spatially consistent with the recorded representation of hand motion relative to the virtual model as aligned to the first instance of the object.
