Event Cameras versus Frame Cameras for Synthetic-Aperture Imaging: A Simulation Study

Jakob Hinterholzer, Mohamed Youssef, Oliver Bimber

Synthetic-aperture imaging (SAI) removes occluders such as foliage by integrating many views of a scene along a camera path. It has so far been used mainly with frame cameras. We a…
