Techniques to provide a low-power single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) image. An example imaging device includes a SPAD array having a plurality of pixels configured to detect electromagnetic radiation, and a processing device configured to deactivate, based on an event count, a pixel of the SPAD array for a remaining duration of a first detection frame of the SPAD array. The pixel can remain deactivated for the remaining duration, and the remaining duration can span from a deactivation time until an end of the first SPAD frame. The processing device can be further configured to reactivate the pixel in a subsequent detection frame of the SPAD array.
