Abstract: A method of processing an image including pixels distributed in cells and in blocks is disclosed, the method including the steps of: a) for each cell, generating n first intensity values of gradients having different orientations, each first value being a weighted sum of the values of the pixels of the cell; b) for each cell, determining a main gradient orientation of the cell and a second value representative of the intensity of the gradient in the main orientation; c) for each block, generating a descriptor of n values respectively corresponding, for each of the n gradient orientations, to the sum of the second values of the cells of the block having the gradient orientation considered as the main gradient orientation.

Abstract: A matrix-array sensor comprises a matrix of detection elements arranged in rows and columns and a readout circuit for each column, the elements of one and the same column linked to the corresponding readout circuit via a bus, each element comprising a sensor, a charge integrator configured to accumulate charge generated by the sensor, a comparator configured to generate a trigger signal when a voltage level across the terminals of this comparator reaches a threshold level, and a bus access logic circuit which is configured to receive, as input, the trigger signal and to attempt to transmit, over the bus, an address of the element in the column, wherein the elements of one and the same column have predetermined bus access priority levels, and wherein the bus access logic circuit of each element is configured: to abandon transmission of the address and reset the charge integrator of the detection element if the bus is pre-empted by an element having a higher priority level; to count the number of attempts made before being able to transmit the address; and to communicate the number to the readout circuit along with the address of the element.
