CAPTEC was responsible for the Independent Software Verification and Validation of the on-board software for the Huygens Lander in the recently successful NASA Cassini Mission to Titan.

The company was selected in competitive bidding for this project and has established a successful track record in developing high reliability on-board software for the ESA satellite programme. Notable space satellite missions operating with CAPTEC software or CAPTEC validated software include: Hipparcos, ISO, SOHO, XMM-Newton, Mars Express, Venus Express, Rosetta, Herschel/Planck and the Huygens Probe.

A spin-off from the technology and process in these projects is the high performance and reliability of the CAPTEC Imaging products for Lossless Compression and Medical Applications.
