Stereo wide-angle cameras for the Exomars Panoramic Camera Instrument - Part D

Project: Externally funded research

Project Details

Layman's description

The Aberystwyth University (AU) PanCam team is responsible for WP 5000: PanCam Calibration Target (PCT), Cameras Calibration, Fiducial Markers (FidMs), and the radiometric and colourimetric processing of the PanCam image data. This project continues the AU PanCam work funded by previous UK Space Agency grants. The objectives for WP 5000 for the period 01/12/15 to mission launch in may 2018 include: 1. Build, characterisation, documentation and delivery of PCT and FidMs Flight Models (FM) and Flight Spare (FS) models. 2. Prepare radiometric calibration plan and carry out calibration of the PanCam Instrument. 3. Prepare, test and document the algorithms (no software delivery - just algorithms) for implementation in the Data Processing pipeline at the Rover Operation and Control Center.
