Yes, RealSense cameras can work through glass, though reflections have the potential to cause disruption. Intel has published a Python tutorial on sensing depth through aquarium glass.

Thank you for your answer. I created an application diagram that I would like to do (hand tracking). Can this tool allow me to make it happen?

If you only need to track the hand with the camera and not do other types of operation such as depth analysis, the pre-made Nuitrack SDK, which works with the RealSense 400 Series cameras, may suit your needs.

Thank you for your answer. I have one last question. For this use is better d435 or 415?

D415 will have a better quality image over distance than D435 will.
