Researchers have developed a new computational primitive called "probabilistic events" to enable real-time perception from individual photon detections. This approach represents photon streams as recursive belief states, allowing for low-latency signals such as scene flux, activity maps, and perceptual uncertainty. The method processes input streams at high speeds, significantly outperforming existing quanta reconstruction baselines and enabling perception in extreme conditions without the need for retraining vision models.
