Just two CompSci/CompEng students from Canada.

Heimdall 👉

V1 is live.

[Heimdall @heimdall_space]

Introducing Heimdall. Real-time orbital intelligence—30,000+ tracked objects, every major data source, one unified 3D environment. From LEO to GEO, rendered and updated continuously.

What do you mean
I’m being tracked!?

[Great Plains Software @devPR0G]

@StephenCaggiano Just 20k+ pairs of eyes floating above us 👀🛰️

[Great Plains Software @devPR0G]

@KalravBhatnagar @StephenCaggiano Yup, we also render and track the space debris that are orbiting above us!

[Great Plains Software @devPR0G]

Still working on more satellite features, but the core is running.
Would love to hear your feedback and suggestions! 🛰️

Heimdall is live!

Spent Friday night at home but our first feature is up and running!

It’s been a while. June kept us busy, but we’re back with exciting progress! Our first feature is nearly ready: live satellite tracking. Soon you’ll be able to watch 20,000+ satellites move around Earth in real-time. If all goes well, launch by the end of the month!

We just wrote an article to explain the algorithmic pipeline we made to generate 3D continent meshes. Check it out!

Using WASM and Rust we were able to make use of complex spherical geometry to render curved polygons from 2D cartographic data using a stereographic projection and CDT. We found these ideas in this article https://t.co/hHpi1wegst

@bielok_ We're currently working on an Earth-visualizer prototype! The lag's just because its a gif.

[Great Plains Software @devPR0G]

We started work on a new 3D project for the web, getting our hands dirty with WebGL and a fullstack project.

[Great Plains Software @devPR0G]

With our Axis Render engine project complete, we are good to move onto other projects. All features can be seen in this video. It's pretty complete and was a good first step towards a full game engine project. Many more bigger and exciting projects coming

We have made really good progress on our 3D engine this week. Added some cool shaders (especially satisfied with the ASCII one) and many more features for the UI, the application is nearing completion. More updates coming soon!

[Great Plains Software @devPR0G]

With models and textures now working with lighting, this project is taking shape. We are still working on many features and options to be able to play with lighting and other things shaders offer. But the core functionality is there: we are able to load complex models

[Great Plains Software @devPR0G]

We've been working on an object renderer using OpenGL as a first step to building a 3D engine. With basic lighting and camera work done, the project is starting to show results.
