Single-Photon Challenge image reconstruction competition is now open!

The Single-Photon Challenge announced yesterday (Oct 19) at ICCV 2025 is a first-of-its-kind benchmark and open competition for photon-level imaging and reconstruction.

The competition is now open! The submission deadline is April 1, 2026 (AOE) and winners will be announced in summer 2026. 

The challenge provides access to single-photon datasets and a public leaderboard to benchmark algorithms for photon-efficient vision: https://SinglePhotonChallenge.com


For this image reconstruction challenge you will need to come up with a novel and creative ways to transform many single-photon camera frames into a single high quality image. This setting is very similar to traditional burst imaging but taken to its extreme limit. Instead of a few burst images you have access to a thousand, but the catch is that each input frame is extremely noisy.  

There are thousands of dollars in prizes to win, thanks to the sponsors Ubicept and Singular Photonics.
