“My current work is on event-based vision sensing. Specifically, I am working on developing dedicated processing methods adapted to the temporal precision and the sparseness of events, and how to connect event-based vision with decades of traditional computer vision advancement without losing the advantages of events. Many challenges remain ahead, and I hope event cameras will be the alternative for computer vision and robotic applications in challenging scenarios currently inaccessible to traditional cameras.”
