    Abstract: An apparatus includes a dynamic vision sensor (DVS) configured to output an asynchronous stream of sensor event data, a CMOS image sensor configured to output frames of image data, an inertial measurement unit (IMU), a processor and a memory. The memory contains instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to generate a semantic segmentation of a time-stamped frame, which is based on one or more of an output of the CMOS image sensor, or a synthesized event frame based on an output from the DVS and an output from the IMU over a time interval. The semantic segmentation includes a semantic label associated with a region of the time-stamped frame. When executed, the instructions further cause the apparatus to determine, based on the semantic segmentation, a simplified object representation in a coordinate space, and update a stable semantic map based on the simplified object representation.
