About this technology
Overview
The software is a simulation framework that generates photo-realistic imagery of terrain from icy moons such as Enceladus and Europa. The simulation is versatile and can provide imagery over a wide range of visual hypotheses of the terrains of these moons with respect to terrain roughness, texture variation, photometric properties, and illumination. The simulation was developed with information from existing scientific literature about the terrains of these icy moons.
