Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for tracking a position of at least one keypoint in an image of an object moving relative to an optical sensor, wherein light reflected from the object (12) is detected so as to generate an image of the object, and wherein a position of at least one keypoint (Kj) in said image is detected and updated using temporal contrast events (Ev) of the optical sensor. The invention also relates to a corresponding computer program and device.
