A method of secure data routing with dynamic packet spoofing is disclosed that comprises a scatter network node receiving data packets from a user communication device and a scattering application selecting a logical communication channel from a plurality of logical communication channels. The method also comprises a channel controller receiving channel information that comprises a size limit corresponding to data packets being transmitted over the logical communication channel and modifying a received data packet based on the channel information such that a size of the modified data packet satisfies the size limit. The method additionally comprises a channel adapter wrapping the modified data packet to correspond to a particular protocol that is different than an initial protocol of the modified data packet. The method further comprises transmitting the modified data packet wrapped to correspond to the particular protocol via the logical communication channel to a counterpart scatter network device.

Methods for transmitting asynchronous event data via synchronous communications interfaces (and associated imaging systems) are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, an imager comprises an array of event vision pixels, and a synchronous communications transmitter configured to transmit frames of data to a synchronous communications receiver. The pixels generate event data based on activity within an external scene. The imager communicates, at a first time and to the receiver, an anticipated amount of data that will be included in a frame transmitted to the receiver at a second time. The anticipated amount of data can be based on a prediction of an amount of event data that will be generated at a future point in time for transmission to the receiver in the frame. The imager can then transmit the frame to the receiver at the second time with an amount of data corresponding to the anticipated amount of data.

An information processing device (3) according to the present disclosure includes: an input unit (31) that receives input of a plurality of data units in order; a data unit length comparison unit (36) that compares a length of a first data unit string composed of one or more consecutively received data units among the plurality of data units with a length of a second data unit string composed of one or more data units consecutively received immediately after the data units constituting the first data unit string; and a padding processing unit (37) that performs padding processing on one of the first data unit string and the second data unit string such that the lengths of the first data unit string and the second data unit string become equal to each other.
