Event-Based Vision in Space: Applications, Trends, and Future Directions 文章

arXiv:2606.01280v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Earth Observation (EO) is undergoing a significant transformation driven by the deployment of novel sensing technologies. Traditional frame-based optical sensors often struggle with motion blur, high power consumption, and extreme data redundancy in challenging orbital environments. In contrast, event-based sensors, also known as neuromorphic cameras, offer a bio-inspired asynchronous approach. By capturing only local illumination changes, they provide microsecond temporal resolution, an extremely high dynamic range, and exceptional energy efficiency. Although the use of these sensors is rapidly expanding from terrestrial systems to orbital platforms, the scientific literature surrounding their space-based applications remains heavily fragmented. To bridge this gap, this article presents a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art in event-based vision in the space domain.
