The original incarnation goes by the name of Dynamic Vision Sensor (DVS), marketed by inivation, an ETH Zürich spinoff. Prophesee is another manufacturer with their own IP. I think Sony makes event-based camera's too; perhaps others as well (Samsung? or was it Huawei?)
They mimic the retina, each pixel emitting events ('spikes' if you wish) when luminance crosses a threshold. There is no frame clock, each pixel works asynchronously. The technology is known for extremely low latency, high temporal resolution and ultra-high dynamic range. Have a look ;)
