Event Cameras Developer Guide
Event Cameras Developer Guide
Event cameras, also called event-based sensors, report changes in brightness instead of full image frames. That makes them a strong fit for fast motion, high dynamic range scenes, and low-latency perception pipelines.
This guide gives you a fast path into the topic: start with the fundamentals, see how the sensor works, and then jump into a practical setup to get hands-on.
