A Joint Intensity-Neuromorphic Event Imaging System With Bandwidth-Limited Communication Channel.

We present a novel adaptive multimodal intensity-event algorithm to optimize an overall objective of object tracking under bit rate constraints for a host-chip architecture. The chip is a computationally resource-constrained device acquiring high-resolution intensity frames and events, while the host is capable of performing computationally expensive tasks. We develop a joint intensity-neuromorphic event rate-distortion compression framework with a quadtree (QT)-based compression of intensity and events scheme.
