Abstract
The story of event cameras starts from the very beginnings of neuromorphic engineering with Misha Mahowald and Carver Mead. The chip design of these “silicon retina” cameras is the most crucial aspect that might enable them to come to mass production and widespread use. Once we have a usable camera is just the beginning, because now we need to think of our use of the data as though we were some type of artificial “silicon cortex”. That step has just started but the last few years have brought some remarkable results from the computer vision community. This talk will have a lot of live demonstrations.
