FEMOT: Multi-Object Tracking using Frame and Event Cameras

arXiv:2606.14094v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conventional RGB cameras have been widely used in multi-object tracking due to their ability to capture rich appearance and semantic information. However, their performance is often degraded under complex real-world challenges, such as motion blur, low illumination, and overexposure. Bio-inspired event cameras offer high temporal resolution and high dynamic range, providing complementary cues under extreme scenarios. Nevertheless, RGB-event multi-object tracking remains underexplored due to the lack of large-scale and well-annotated datasets. T

Why this matters
Why now

This development addresses a critical limitation in multi-object tracking by integrating event cameras, which are becoming more accessible and integrated into research due to their unique properties that overcome traditional camera challenges.

Why it’s important

Improving multi-object tracking accuracy and robustness in challenging real-world conditions directly impacts the reliability and capability of autonomous systems, surveillance, and robotics in diverse environments.

What changes

The integration of event and frame cameras provides a more robust and versatile foundation for multi-object tracking, reducing performance degradation caused by common environmental factors.
