ATON – Autonomous Terrain based Optical Navigation

ATON is a project to develop an optical navigation system for autonomous landings on celestial bodies.

Core Avionics

Core Avionics deals with the development of an operating system for small satellites. Central component is RODOS, a real-time kernel and middleware, and a network architecture connecting to peripheral components and payload devices.

DLR-PostProc

Deployment of a scalable HPC-Software-Infrastructure for distributed interactive Post-processing

Cartography of Mars in a Virtual Reality Environment

This work aims to investigate the suitability of applying Virtual Reality techniques in the exploration of Mars terrain features in order to support the creation of topographic maps of the planet.

Online Monitoring

Online Monitoring and Computational Steering of Massive Parallel CFD Simulations

PROV-SPEC - Standardisierung eines erweiterbaren Modells für Provenance-Daten

Erstellung eines Vorschlags für einen nationalen Standard (DIN-SPEC) eines offenen Provenance-Modells auf Basis bereits bestehender offener Provenance-Modelle. Insbesondere auf Grundlage des Open Provenance Modells (OPM) und dessen Weiterentwicklung Provenance Data Model (PROV-DM). Im Projekt werden dazu die existierenden Modelle evaluiert und ggf. an nationale Bedürfnisse angepasst.

SHEFEX II

In October 2005 the first version of DLR’s hypersonic SHarp Edge Flight EXperiment (SHEFEX) program was successfully launched from the Andøya Rocket Range in northern Norway. The mission investigated new shape possibilities for future launch or reentry vehicles, using a reentry vehicle body with facetted surfaces and sharp edges. The next generation experiment, SHEFEX II, will launch in 2010.

SimMoLib – Simulation Model Library

The project SimMoLib develops a library prototype for simulation models in the whole DLR. In this library models should be stored only, which are verified, validated, and documented extensively. In addition, the possibilities of user support shall be examined.
