Event Cameras with Event-Based Vision Sensors (EVS)
for Event-Based Vision Systems based on neuromorphic engineering principles

Unlike traditional machine vision cameras, which capture images in frames per second and repeatedly record redundant background objects, Event-Based Vision cameras offer a more efficient approach. These cameras utilize a neuromorphic vision sensor that, similar to the human eye and brain, only captures changes in brightness—an "event"—rather than complete images at fixed intervals. This method eliminates the generation of excess, unnecessary data caused by the constant recording of static elements, providing a more focused and informative representation of movement.

Event-Based Vision (EVS) sensors and neuromorphic engineering technology are overcoming the limitations of traditional machine vision. Event cameras have opened up new possibilities for numerous applications including object tracking, fall detection, eye tracking, gesture recognition, constellation tracking, motion analysis, and vibration tracking.

Our selection of event-based cameras includes:

• Prophesee Metavision® Technologies event-based cameras and evaluation kits are built with Prohpesee's unique, patented Metavision® Event-Based Vision Sensor (EVS). The Plug-n-Play design makes these event cameras easy to setup, and the evaluation kits are a great way to get started exploring neuromorphic engineering for event-based vision.
• The IDS Imaging uEye XCP-E event-based cameras developed by IDS Imaging, a highly respected and leading manufacturer of industrial cameras, features the Sony IMX636 Event-Based Vision Sensor (EVS), a lightweight design, USB3 interface with data transmission speeds up to 5 Gbps, and a C-mount lens mount. The Sony IMX626 sensor was developed in collaboration between Sony and Prophesee Metavision® Technologies.
