Each pixel in Prophesee’s Metavision sensor only activates if it detects a change in the scene – an event – which means low power, latency and data processing requirements
Imaging systems are becoming ubiquitous in modern technology; camera-lens systems are almost everywhere you look. From smartphones to self-driving cars, our world is filled with computers that rely on machine vision to record, observe, and analyse their surroundings. The number of applications is continuously expanding and their needs are wide and varied. Due to the increasingly demanding performance requirements of these machine vision systems, there is almost always a need for more resolution.
