Optical Flow Estimation with an Event Camera
The goal of this project is to use event cameras to compute the optical flow in the image plane induced by either a moving camera in a scene or by moving objects with respect to a static event camera.
Event cameras such as the Dynamic Vision Sensor (DVS) are recent sensors with large potential for high-speed and high dynamic range robotic applications. The goal of this project is to use event cameras to compute the optical flow in the image plane induced by either a moving camera in a scene or by moving objects with respect to a static event camera. Several existing methods as well as proposed new ones will be analyzed, implemented and compared. A successful candidate is expected to be familiar with state-of-the-art optical flow methods for standard cameras. This is a project with considerable room for creativity, for example in applying the ideas from low-level vision or ideas driving optical flow methods for standard cameras to the new paradigm of event-based vision. Experience in coding image processing algorithms in C++ is required.
