Mars Panorama #2

Mars Panorama #2 ($CMSEntryDescription) : The 3D Panorama - 3D panoramic photo viewer for Silverlight®

The application above displays the panoramic view on the Mars beside Mt. Sharp where Mars rover Curiosity landed. The mapped texture image is derived from the original image by NASA (see section below for detail). The scene is rendered by 3d panorama viewer for Microsoft® Silverlight®.

Texture Image

The original panorama image is by NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS. You can view the original at http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/msl/multimedia/pia16100.html.

The image is incrementally modified in some aspects (e.g. angular offset correction, sky extrapolation, contrast/brightness adjustment, pixel resampling to lower resolution, etc.) to adapt it to the the clearly-visible fully-covered 3d panoramic view.
