Event-based imaging is a neurmorphic detection technique whereby an array of pixels detects a positive or negative change in light intensity at each pixel, and is hence particularly well suited to detecting motion. As compared to standard…
Imaging-based detection of the motion of the levitated nanoparticles complements a widely-used interferometric detection method, providing a precise and robust way to estimate the position of the particle. Here, we show the camera-based…

Bio-inspired neuromorphic cameras asynchronously record pixel brightness changes and generate sparse event streams. They can capture dynamic scenes with little motion blur and more details in extreme illumination conditions. Due to the…
We demonstrate coherent, measurement-free optical feedback control of a levitated nanoparticle, achieving phonon occupations down to a few hundred phonons. Unlike measurement-based feedback, this all-optical scheme preserves the…
In this work, we present optical space imaging using an unconventional yet promising class of imaging devices known as neuromorphic event-based sensors. These devices, which are modeled on the human retina, do not operate with frames, but…
Deep learning inference that needs to largely take place on the 'edge' is a highly computational and memory intensive workload, making it intractable for low-power, embedded platforms such as mobile nodes and remote security applications.…

Flow boiling is an efficient heat transfer mechanism capable of dissipating high heat loads with minimal temperature variation, making it an ideal thermal management method. However, sudden shifts between flow regimes can disrupt thermal…
With the success of deep learning, object recognition systems that can be deployed for real-world applications are becoming commonplace. However, inference that needs to largely take place on the `edge' (not processed on servers), is a…
Neuromorphic, or event, cameras represent a transformation in the classical approach to visual sensing encodes detected instantaneous per-pixel illumination changes into an asynchronous stream of event packets. Their novelty compared to…
Following the first demonstration of a levitated nanosphere cooled to the quantum ground state in 2020 [1], macroscopic quantum sensors are seemingly on the horizon. The nanosphere's large mass as compared to other quantum systems enhances…
The opportunity to manipulate small-scale objects pushes us to the limits of our understanding of physics. Particularly promising in this regard is the interdisciplinary field of levitation, in which light fields can be harnessed to isolate…

Unlike traditional cameras which synchronously register pixel intensity, neuromorphic sensors only register `changes' at pixels where a change is occurring asynchronously. This enables neuromorphic sensors to sample at a micro-second level…
Light forces can be harnessed to levitate mesoscopic objects and cool them down towards their motional quantum ground state. Significant roadblocks on the way to scale up levitation from a single to multiple particles in close proximity are…
