This research paper introduces the first event camera-based Tracking Any Point (TAP) method, which enables robust high-speed tracking in scenarios with challenging lighting conditions and fast motions. By leveraging the unique characteristics of event cameras, such as high temporal resolution and high dynamic range, this approach can handle asynchronous and sparse event measurements. The TAP framework is extended to address feature variations induced by motion using a novel feature alignment loss, ensuring the learning of motion-robust features. The method is trained with data from a new pipeline and shows strong cross-dataset generalization, outperforming baselines and previous state-of-the-art methods on established benchmarks.

This paper introduces a new way to track objects using cameras that capture changes in light (event cameras). This approach is better at handling situations with tricky lighting or fast-moving objects. It uses the unique features of event cameras, like being able to take many photos per second and handling bright and dark areas well. The method also adjusts for changes in the object’s shape caused by motion. The results show that this new approach performs much better than previous methods on similar tasks.
