Description

We present an open source GPU-accelerated cross-platform FITS 2D image viewer FIPS. Unlike other FITS viewers, FIPS uses GPU hardware via OpenGL to provide functionality such as zooming, panning and level adjustments. FIPS is the first end-to-end GPU FITS image viewer: FITS image data is fully offloaded to GPU memory as is, and then processed by OpenGL shaders.

The executables and the source is available on http://fips.space
