  • Method of 3D reconstruction of a scene calling upon asynchronous sensors
    Patent number: 9628777
    Abstract: A method of 3D reconstruction of a scene, including the implementation of at least two sensors each having a series of elementary receivers arranged so as to view the scene according to distinct respective solid angles and which are each sensitive to a physical characteristic of a signal received by the receiver originating from the scene. The sensors are adapted for emitting an asynchronous stream of events indicative of a modification of the signal received by one of the elementary receivers at a given instant, as well as the implementation of a 3D reconstruction algorithm having a step of pairing elementary receivers of each of the sensors utilizing signals generated by the sensors, the pairing including pairing between them events generated by each of the sensors and temporarily close together.
