The Challenge | Design by Nature
Design an autonomous free-flyer to inspect a spacecraft for damage from Micro-Meteoroid and Orbital Debris (MMOD).
G-transformer
A device that detects MMOD damage using a simple light manipulation algorithm
By Osama Ragab & Zahra’a, Eman, Radwan. For “Design by nature” SpaceApps challenge.
G-transform is the name we coined for the process of finding a damage caused by MMODs effect of satellites and space-ships. The core of the G-transform is casting a single-tone uniform green light on the surface we want to check. Then using this python program, we’re able to detect these holes in an elegant and simple way.
SpaceApps is a NASA incubator innovation program.
