Data Capture Demonstration: Video
- Data captured from an event camera is aggregated into non-overlapping arrays along the time axis,
- A region of Interest and a template are selected,
- 2D correlation of the template with arrays is computed,
- The frequency is calculated from the average of time deltas measured between correlation peaks.
The data is organized into folders, each representing a specific experiment from the paper. Each folder contains the following files:
.raw: Raw event camera data in the EVT 3.0 format._slowdownfactor_fps.avi: Slowed down video of the event stream._tachometer_data.xml: Ground truth data from the laser tachometer (if applicable).
The files were compressed and split into multiple .rar files to meet GitHub file size guidelines.
01_line: Experiment measuring the rotational speed of a disc with a high-contrast mark.02_velcro: Experiment measuring the rotational speed of a disc with a uniform velcro surface.03_velcroside: Experiment measuring the rotational speed of a disc with velcro, viewed from the side.04_speaker: Experiment measuring the vibration frequency of a speaker diaphragm.05_led: Experiment measuring the flashing frequency of an LED.
Note: Not all experiments use the laser tachometer, hence the absence of the corresponding data file in some folders.
The data can be used for various purposes, including:
- Reproducing the experiments in the paper.
- Developing and testing new methods for frequency and rotational speed estimation using event cameras.
- Comparing the performance of different event camera-based methods.
