Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging is an emerging technique for detecting objects behind obstacles or around corners. Recent studies on passive NLOS mainly focus on steady-state measurement and reconstruction methods, which show limitations in recognition of moving targets. To the best of our knowledge, we propose a novel event-based passive NLOS imaging method. We acquire asynchronous event-based data which contains detailed dynamic information of the NLOS target, and efficiently ease the degradation of speckle caused by movement. Besides, we create the first event-based NLOS imaging dataset, NLOS-ES, and the event-based feature is extracted by time-surface representation. We compare the reconstructions through event-based data with frame-based data. The event-based method performs well on PSNR and LPIPS, which is 20 2
