The project under development by Team Photon is centered around creating a proof-of-concept graphics processing unit which can withstand some of the common errors associated with ionizing radiation during deep-space travel, such as single event upsets and single event latch-ups. The unit is based on consumer-off-the-shelf products and uses error correction/mitigation algorithms which are tested through a software-based error injection system. The project is intended to be a scalable system able to work with varying resolutions and is a step in the direction of radiation-hard graphics units.
