==Original Abstract Submitted==

disclosed are apparatuses, systems, and techniques that implement runtime configuration of sensors that combine visible light sensing elements with infrared sensing elements and deploy pulsed illumination sources in real-time data generating and streaming applications. in one disclosed embodiment, a sensing system includes a plurality of infrared (ir) sensing elements to generate an ir portion of an image and a plurality of visible light (vl) sensing elements to generate one or more vl portions of the image. a processing device identifies a source parameter characterizing a photon count associated with the ir portion of the image relative to the photon count associated with the one or more vl portions of the image, and determines, using the source parameter, one or more settings of the sensing system.
