- Project Charon lists photogrammetry, inexpensive sensors, GNSS-logged gamma spectrometry, and Gaussian splatting in its mapping workflow.
Field notes
The homepage separates work into four named projects and a dated timeline, with links to individual project pages and a presentation video. Charon’s listed workflow combines photogrammetry, inexpensive sensors, GNSS logging, gamma spectrometry, and Gaussian splatting; the page says project data is shared with collaborators on request. Pluto is explicitly framed as a metagenomic study proposal, while the Tycho page describes language-model-designed reactor hardware as a possibility rather than a demonstrated system.
