NEWS: TU press release puts SCIoI’s event cameras in the spotlight
With a time resolution of microseconds, six thousand times the contrast of conventional cameras, and potentially much smaller file sizes for the images, event cameras promise a revolution in photography. Unlike conventional cameras, they do not record entire images at once, but instead register only the changes in brightness (the "events") for each light-sensitive pixel separately.
