The Mastcam-Z team's first 3D video flyover of the Martian surface. The video shows the immediate environment of NASA's Perseverance rover, compiled from Mastcam-Z flight stereo images.
Prof. Sanjeev Gupta is Co-Investigator on the Mastcam camera teams on the Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity rover mission in Gale crater on Mars, Collaborator on the Mastcam-Z camera team of NASA Mars 2020 rover mission, which landed successfully on Mars in 2021 as well as Co-Investigator on the PanCam camera team of the ExoMars 2020 rover mission, which is currently planned for 2026.
PRo3D is available for download at pro3d.space including reconstructions of the Martian surface to try out. PRo3D is also available in open-source form on Github. For academic or commercial inquiries please contact science(at)vrvis.at.
In the PROVEX project, JOANNEUM Research and VRVis are developing a provenance-aware workflow management tool for heterogeneous data for use in ESA's HERA mission.
WIBSTAC addresses the usage of wide baseline stereo 3D reconstruction for medium- and long-range mapping of the Martian surface, based on imagery from panoramic rover camera instruments.
PanCam-3D focuses on the further development of interactive 3D visualizations for the ExoMars 2022 mission.
Support for planetary research: Visual analysis of reconstructions of the Mars surface and view planning for rover camera instruments.
Virtual exploration and geological analysis of reconstructed Mars surfaces and rock outcrops.
Visual Analysis of Asteroid Deflection.
MINERVA is an integrated framework for planetary scientists allowing members of different instrument teams to cooperate synergistically in virtual workspaces by sharing observations, analyses and annotations of heterogonous mission data.
The "Mars-DL" project is investigating how a deep learning system can support the research work of planetary scientists through object and pattern recognition. For this project VRVis has extended the functionality of PRo3D to automatically render shatter cone training images.
