Launched in early 2014, as part of a SpaceX resupply mission, the High Definition Earth Viewing (HDEV) project aimed to test how commercial-off-the-shelf cameras perform in space. A decade later Visionary’s AVN443 H.264 (PacketTV IPTV) encoders continue to play a pivotal role om the International Space Station (ISS).
The project has brought live high-definition video of Earth to over 318 million viewers worldwide and has aided in the selection of video systems for future spaceflights. Visionary’s encoders were integral in translating raw video into streaming content, capturing video and images of Earth’s beauty in high clarity.
