Curiosity Rover Image Updates
-
I know some people here were a bit disappointed with the quality of the initial images sent back to Earth from the Curiosity Rover. So I wanted to offer some links to updated images. So far, this one is my favorite: http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA16029[^] They are also currently getting the high res landing video transmitted and processed, here is a sneak peak of the first frame to see what kind of resolution you can expect when its done: http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA16021[^]

HAvent they produced 3D images also? I though Id seen some of those in a new article somewhere...

I think that is in reference to the haz-cams, or hazard avoidance cameras. These are mounted all around the rover, looking at the near surface. These will be used to create stereo-optic analyses to determine the true terrain they will encounter while moving the rover and it's arm. While this will create a '3D' image for the purpose of analysis and avoidance, I don't know if they are going to be putting the 3D images into a format for people to view. That would be awesome though.

Scroll by the usual pictures and you'll see a 3D picture in red and green. http://www.side3.no/article3448315.ece[^]

Ahh found it on the Nasa site: http://marsrover.nasa.gov/gallery/3d/[^]

Yeah, Mars. One big beach, but no ocean.
At least artificial intelligence already is superior to natural stupidity
only until we find the machine that Arnold will place his hand on the "activate" button ;)
