Abstract
A system and method for object classification and related applications based on frame and event camera processing is provided. The system acquires an output of image sensor circuitry and determines a first object classification result based on feature points associated with first objects in a first frame of the acquired output. The system executes an event-camera signal processing operation on at least two frames of the acquired output to generate an event frame. The generated event frame includes pixel-level movement information associated with second objects. The system determines a second object classification result based on the pixel-level movement information and determines one or more object classification tags based on the determined first and the determined second object classification result. The determined one or more object classification tags correspond to one or more objects, included in at least the first objects and the second objects.
