Abstract

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are presented for reacting to scene-based occurrences. Such an apparatus may comprise dedicated computer vision (CV) computation hardware configured to receive sensor data from a sensor array comprising a plurality of sensor pixels and capable of computing one or more CV features using readings from neighboring sensor pixels of the sensor array. The apparatus may further comprise a first processing unit configured to control operation of the dedicated CV computation hardware. The first processing unit may be further configured to execute one or more application programs and, in conjunction with execution of the one or more application programs, communicate with at least one input/output (I/O) device controller, to effectuate an I/O operation in reaction to an event generated based on operations performed on the one or more computed CV features.
