“alytic event simulator that exploits what event cameras fundamentally measure - moving contrast edges - to synthesize event streams directly from scene geometry and ego-motion without visual rendering. Our simulator generates a 64x64 event observation in 17 microseconds on a single GPU - over 400x faster than a state-of-the-art rendering pipeline - enabling end-to-end reinforcement learning for goal-directed obstacle”

“r hall. Furthermore, we quantized the policy to a 1.2 MB int8 network running fully onboard a 56-gram Crazyflie equipped with a Prophesee GenX320 event camera and an OpenMV N6 microcontroller board. Without any fine-tuning, external processing, or positioning, the policy achieves an average success rate of 82% (5/5, 5/6, 4/6 flights) across three real-world obstacle courses of increasing difficulty.

This research proposes an analytic event simulator that generates event streams directly from scene geometry and ego-motion without visual rendering, enabling fast reinforcement learning for autonomous robot navigation. The simulator produces 64x64 event observations in 17 microseconds, achieving over 400x speedup compared to state-of-the-art rendering pipelines. The policy trained on this simulator transfers zero-shot to physically based simulations and achieves 83% success in unseen cluttered environments, with a 1.2 MB int8 network running onboard a 56-gram drone.
