eTraM: Event-based Traffic Monitoring Dataset

eTraM: Event-based Traffic Monitoring Dataset

Event cameras offer high temporal resolution and efficiency but remain underutilized in static traffic monitoring. We present eTraM, a first-of-its-kind event-based dataset with 10 hours of traffic data, 2M annotations, and eight participant classes. Evaluated with RVT, RED, and YOLOv8, eTraM highlights the potential of event cameras for real-world applications.

Neuromorphic Computing and Sensing in Space

The term “neuromorphic” refers to systems that closely resemble the architecture and dynamics of biological neural networks. From brain-inspired computer chips to sensory devices mimicking human vision and olfaction, neuromorphic computing aims to achieve efficiency levels comparable to biological organisms.

Collision detection for UAVs using Event Cameras

Collision detection for UAVs using Event Cameras

This paper explores the use of event cameras for collision detection in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Traditional cameras have been widely used in UAVs for obstacle avoidance and navigation, but they suffer from high latency and low dynamic range. Event cameras, on the other hand, capture only the changes in the scene and can operate at high speeds with low latency.

Demystifying event-based camera latency: sensor speed dependence on pixel biasing, light, and spatial activity

This report explores how various mechanisms effect the response time of event-based cameras (EBCs) are based on unconventional electro-optical IR vision sensors, which are only sensitive to changing light. Because their operation is essentially “frameless,” their response time is not dependent to a frame rate or readout time, but rather the number of activated pixels, the magnitude of background light, local fabrication defects, and analog configuration of the pixel.blurry image and the concurrent event streams.

Multi-Event-Camera Depth Estimation and Outlier Rejection by Refocused Events Fusion

The MSMO algorithm uses the velocities of each event to create an average of the scene and filter out dissimilar events. This work shows the study performed on the velocity values of the events and explains why ultimately an average-based velocity filter is insufficient for lightweight MSMO detection and tracking of objects using an EBS camera.
