Feature-based methods are a popular method for camera state estimation using event cameras. Due to the spatiotemporal nature of events, all event images exhibit smearing of events analogous to motion blur for a camera under motion. As such, events must be motion compensated to derive a sharp event image. However, this presents a causality dilemma where motion prior is required to unsmear the event...
