Multispectral Event Camera Module

About

This module is only compatible with the OpenMV N6.

The Multispectral Event Camera Module allows your OpenMV Cam to interface with the GENX320 Event Vision sensor and the PAG7936 1MP 120 FPS Color Global Shutter sensor simultaneously. Now you can process event images with color mixed in! The PAG7936 exposure trigger is shared with the GENX320 event timestamp input, allowing you to synchronize event information with image capture.

The Prophesee GenX320 camera module brings event-based vision sensing to the OpenMV Cam platform.

Inspired by the human retina, each sensor pixel responds independently and asynchronously to relative changes in illumination leading to efficient, high-speed and low power vision sensing.

• Efficient – only changes in the scene are sensed leading to low data rates even for fast motion. No more static background removal required.
• High-speed – no exposure time, no motion blur, delivering event histograms at 375Hz+.
• Low-power – sensing only scene changes gives increased battery life with sensor consumption starting at 3mW streaming data.
• Extended Dynamic Range - Achieve high robustness even in challenging lighting conditions with up to 140dB dynamic range. Sensing only relative illumination changes allows to see changes in both dark and bright zones of a scene. No need for auto-exposure.
• Low light sensing - Sometimes the darkest areas hold the clearest insights. Use the GenX320 module to sense into twilight light levels (<5 lux) even with brightly lit zones in the FoV thanks to the sensor low-light cut-off of 0.05 lux.

Comprehensive sensor configuration options are made available right from the OpenMV IDE. Harness the full power of event-based sensing using GenX320’s built-in settings. For further information, please visit docs.prophesee.ai.
