Temporal-Mapping Photography for Event Cameras

Temporal-Mapping Photography for Event Cameras

In this paper, for the first time, we realize events to dense intensity image conversion using a stationary event camera in static scenes. Different from traditional methods that mainly rely on event integration, the proposed Event-Based Temporal Mapping Photography (EvTemMap) measures the time of event emitting for each pixel.

Event Cameras in Automotive Sensing: A Review

Event Cameras in Automotive Sensing: A Review

This article explores the applications, benefits, and challenges of event cameras in these two critical domains within the automotive industry. This review also highlights relevant datasets and methodologies, enabling researchers to make informed decisions tailored to their specific vehicular-technology and place their work in the broader context of EC sensing.

Noise2Image: Noise-Enabled Static Scene Recovery for Event Cameras

Noise2Image: Noise-Enabled Static Scene Recovery for Event Cameras

This work proposes a method, called Noise2Image, to leverage the illuminance-dependent noise characteristics to recover the static parts of a scene, which are otherwise invisible to event cameras. The results show that Noise2Image can robustly recover intensity images solely from noise events, providing a novel approach for capturing static scenes in event cameras, without additional hardware.

Object Detection with Spiking Neural Networks on Automotive Event Data

Object Detection with Spiking Neural Networks on Automotive Event Data

In this work, we propose to train spiking neural networks (SNNs) directly on data coming from event cameras to design fast and efficient automotive embedded applications. Indeed, SNNs are more biologically realistic neural networks where neurons communicate using discrete and asynchronous spikes, a naturally energy-efficient and hardware friendly operating mode.
