# TWL Spike Yolo

**TWL Spike Yolo** is a spiking neural network (SNN) for real-time object detection based on event-based vision. The model adapts the YOLOv8 architecture to work with streams of event data, allowing efficient processing in neuromorphic computing environments.

</p>

This approach leverages the low-latency and power-efficient properties of SNNs to detect objects in fast-changing visual scenes. The model also explores multimodal fusion by combining event-based and frame-based inputs to enhance detection accuracy under challenging conditions such as motion blur or low light.

## Highlights

- **Architecture**: YOLOv8-inspired spiking neural network.
- **Input**: Event data from neuromorphic (event-based) cameras; optionally combined with standard image frames.
- **Use case**: High-speed, low-latency object detection with improved energy efficiency.
- **Applications**: Robotics, autonomous driving, surveillance, and edge devices using neuromorphic hardware.
