This repository provides software for our publication "Real-Time Intensity-Image Reconstruction for Event Cameras Using Manifold Regularisation", BMVC 2016.
If you use this code please cite the following publication:

author = {Christian Reinbacher and Gottfried Graber and Thomas Pock},
title = {{Real-Time Intensity-Image Reconstruction for Event Cameras Using Manifold Regularisation}},
booktitle = {2016 British Machine Vision Conference (BMVC)},
year = {2016},

For your convenience, the required libraries that are on Github are added as
submodules. So clone this repository with --recursive or do a
git submodule update --init --recursive
after cloning.
This software requies:
- GCC >= 4.9
- CMake >= 3.2
- Qt >= 5.6
- ImageUtilities (https://github.com/VLOGroup/imageutilities) with the
iugui,iuioandiumathmodules - libcaer >=2.0 (https://github.com/inilabs/libcaer)
- cnpy (https://github.com/rogersce/cnpy)
- DVS128 or DAVIS240 camera (can also load events from files)
To compile, first build and install ImageUtilities, then:
cd cnpy
cmake .
make
(sudo) make install
cd ../libcaer
cmake .
make
(sudo) make install
cd ..
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../src
make -j6
Per default, the application will compile to support the iniLabs DVS128. If you want to attach a DAVIS240 instead, set the CMake option WITH_DAVIS.
Launch live_reconstruction_gui to get to the main application which should look like this:
Clicking on the play button with an attached camera will start the live reconstruction method. Alternatively, events can be loaded from text files with one event per line:
<timestamp in seconds> <x> <y> <polarity (-1/1)>
