Abstract: A proximity sensor and a proximity sensing method using an event-based vision sensor are provided. The proximity sensor may include a point identification (ID) unit which identifies a point at which an output light output from a focused light source is reflected from an object in an image taken by the proximity sensor; and a distance determination unit which determines a distance between the object and the proximity sensor based on a position of the point.
