7. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the measurement result is a number of luminance changes measured in a region larger than a predetermined size based on the address event signal.

8. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the instructions cause the at least one processor to causes the measurement result to be displayed with a change in a scale of the time in accordance with the measurement result.

9. The apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein,

in a case where the measurement result is smaller than a predetermined value, the control unit causes the measurement result to be displayed so that an interval of the scale of the time is extended, or

in a case where the measurement result is less than a third threshold, the control unit causes the measurement result to be displayed without a measurement time of the measurement result.

10. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the instructions cause the at least one processor to acquires the measurement result of a number of luminance changes measured in a preset time range.

11. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the instructions cause the at least one processor to acquires the address event signal based on an event-based sensor configured to output a signal in accordance with a number of incident photons.

acquiring a measurement result of a number of luminance changes, based on an address event signal indicating an address of a pixel having changed in luminance and a time; and

controlling for causing a relationship between the time and the measurement result to be displayed,

wherein the controlling includes causing the measurement result to be displayed in accordance with a direction of the luminance changes,

wherein a first measurement value indicating a number of luminance changes in a positive direction and a second measurement value indicating a number of luminance changes in a negative direction are acquired individually as the measurement result, and

wherein the first measurement value and the second measurement value are displayed separately.

13. The non-transitory storage medium according to claim 12

wherein the measurement result includes a first measurement value of a luminance change in a positive direction and a second measurement value of a luminance change in a negative direction, and

wherein the controlling causes the first measurement value and the second measurement value to be displayed.

14. The non-transitory storage medium according to claim 12 , further comprising accepting a region of interest specified by a user,

wherein the acquiring acquires the measurement result from the address event signal corresponding to a pixel included in the region of interest among the address event signals.

15. The non-transitory storage medium according to claim 12 , wherein the measurement result is a number of the luminance changes measured in each pixel based on the address event signal.

16. A method comprising:

acquiring a measurement result of a number of luminance changes, based on an address event signal indicating an address of a pixel having changed in luminance and a time; and

controlling for causing a relationship between the time and the measurement result to be displayed,

wherein the controlling includes causing the measurement result to be displayed in accordance with a direction of the luminance changes,

wherein a first measurement value indicating a number of luminance changes in a positive direction and a second measurement value indicating a number of luminance changes in a negative direction are acquired individually as the measurement result, and

wherein the first measurement value and the second measurement value are displayed separately.
