PSR Image Enhancer :

This project was shortlisted for the Smart India Hackathon. It focuses on enhancing the visibility of Permanently Shadowed Regions (PSRs) on the Moon using image processing techniques.

Problem Statement :

PSRs are areas that never receive sunlight, making them difficult to study using traditional images. Our goal is to simulate illumination and reveal hidden features using virtual enhancement.

Tech Stack :

• Python
• OpenCV
• Image Processing
• Gradient Simulation

Key Features :

• Detection of black regions (PSRs) in satellite or cosmic images
• Application of custom gradient fills to simulate lighting
• Real-time image processing with visual comparisons
• Designed for potential use in X-ray, cosmic, and lunar image analysis

Achievement :

• Selected from college for Smart India Hackathon 2024

Future Scope :

• Integrate with AI models to enhance crater structure prediction
• Support other planetary datasets (Mars, Mercury, etc.)
