==SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ADDING PERSISTENCE TO SINGLE PHOTON AVALANCHE DIODE IMAGERY - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18532882 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ADDING PERSISTENCE TO SINGLE PHOTON AVALANCHE DIODE IMAGERY

==Simplified Explanation==

A system for adding persistence to SPAD imagery is configurable to capture a plurality of image frames using a SPAD array. The system can also capture pose data associated with the image frames using an IMU. The system determines a persistence term based on the pose data and generates a composite image using the image frames, pose data, and the persistence term.

==Original Abstract Submitted==

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.
