Abstract: A system for adding persistence to SPAD imagery is configurable to capture, using a SPAD array, a plurality of image frames. The system is configurable to capture, using an IMU, pose data associated with the plurality of image frames. The pose data includes at least respective pose data associated with each of the plurality of image frames. The system is configurable to determine a persistence term based on the pose data. The system is also configurable to generate a composite image based on the plurality of image frames, the respective pose data associated with each of the plurality of image frames, and the persistence term. The persistence term defines a contribution of each of the plurality of image frames to the composite image.
