Abstract

High-framerate real-time spatiotemporal disparity mechanisms on neuromorphic hardware are provided. In various embodiments, a first and second spiking input sensor each output a time series of spikes corresponding to a plurality of frames. A neurosynaptic network is configured to receive the time series of spikes corresponding to the plurality of frames; accumulate the time series of spikes in a ring buffer, thereby creating a plurality of temporal scales; for each corresponding pair of frames from the first and second spiking input sensors, determining a mapping of pixels in one of the pair of frames to pixels in the other of the pair of frames based on similarity; based on the pixel mapping, determining a disparity map.
