Less Is More When Sensing Events
Compounding this challenge, the issues with traditional image sensors are
they are slow and energy-intensive while producing excessive redundant
data and have limited dynamic range, which makes them ill-suited for
machine vision tasks, particularly those in demanding operating environments.
Consequently, biologically inspired " neuromorphic "
event-based vision (EVS) systems are now emerging as alternatives
that offer enhanced speed, minimal latency, better power
efficiency, and broader dynamic range that cater well to various
machine vision applications.
Event-based vision marks a paradigm shift in how visual
information is acquired and processed for modern machine
vision uses. Utilizing neuromorphic techniques
inspired by the human vision system, this approach
seeks to enhance efficiency and performance in various
vision-enabled systems across consumer, industrial,
automotive, and other sectors to elevate safety,
productivity, and user experience.
Event-based vision operates differently from
traditional cameras as it is a departure from
a uniform acquisition rate for all pixels. Instead,
each pixel independently determines
its sampling timing based on light incident
changes thanks to dedicated intelligence per
pixel. Contrast detection information is encapsulated
in 'events,' comprising the pixel's
x,y coordinates and precise event generation
time. With Prophesee's patented event-based
sensors, for example, pixels activate intelligently
upon detecting contrast changes (motion),
facilitating the continuous capture of
essential motion details at the pixel level.
