Abstract

The present invention relates to a scene descriptor generation system, including an image sensor including a plurality of pixels, successively supplying S binary image planes, each including a single binary value per pixel; and a processing circuit configured to, for each binary image plane supplied by the sensor (100), to implement the successive steps of: a) calculating N convolutions of the binary image plane with respectively N distinct convolution kernels, to provide N convolved images; b) generating at least one meta-image from the N convolved images supplied at step a); and c) for each of the N convolved images supplied at step a), generating a binary descriptor from said convolved image and from said at least one meta-image.
