High-Level Project Summary
We used the RGB images from the Juno Cam to create an application that allows us to process images by applying different filters and observe the Jovian System from different perspectives.We also processed the image to obtain a sound whose frequency changes depending on the RGB value of the image, allowing not only to perceive Jupiter through visual means but also through sound.

Detailed Project Description
We made an application in PyQt5 that allows to apply different filters to the combined RGB images of the Junocam.
The purpose of the filters is to highlight details or to observe singularities that are not perceived in a regular image.
The filters we applied were:
- Histogram equalization.
- Unsharped.
- Combination of a JunoCam image with an artistic work through Tensor Flow.
- EMBH: It allows to change the threshold value to generate an equalization.
- Fuzzy: Works through three membership values.
- Extraction of audio frequencies depending on the RGB value of the image.
Space Agency Data
We used the RGB images provided by JunoCam which can be found at:

Hackathon Journey
We had never before taken part in a hackathon. It was simply too amazing to have experienced it firsthand.
We selected this challenge since it falls under the category of image processing, which is our area of expertise.
But there were several difficulties during these two days of development. In order to be able to create a user-friendly interface, we had to learn how to program PyQt5 sufficiently.
