Replicating the robustness and efficiency of biological\nvisual motion estimation in artificial systems would significantly enhance the\ncapabilities of future robotic agents. 25 years ago, in this very journal,\nCarver Mead outlined his argument for replicating biological processing in\nsilicon circuits. His vision served as the foundation for the field of\nneuromorphic engineering, which has experienced a rapid growth in interest over\nrecent years as the ideas and technologies mature. Replicating biological\nvisual sensing was one of the first tasks attempted in the neuromorphic field.\nIn this paper we focus specifically on the task of visual motion estimation. We\ndescribe the task itself, present the progression of works from the early first\nattempts through to the modern day state-of-the-art, and provide an outlook for\nfuture directions in the field.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1511.00096v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1511.00096v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"bioinspired-visual-motion-estimation","repo_url":"https://github.com/gorchard/Spiking_Motion","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"motion-estimation","task_name":"Motion Estimation"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
