Nano Banana

What it does

AI-native image and visual generation. Used in engineering contexts to produce visual references for operational scenarios, capability illustrations, and concept artefacts that operators can react to.

The strength of Nano Banana in the Pipeline is the speed at which a vague capability concept becomes a concrete visual that an operator can either point at and say "yes, like that" or "no, the issue is here."

When to use it

• Design phase for engineering teams
• Early concept development — when the team needs something visual to anchor operator conversations
• Pre-acquisition — to make trade-offs visible before they're locked in

Output expectations

• Outputs are illustrative, not specifications — treat them as conversation starters, not as binding requirements
• Pair with an operational scenario produced by the operational-scenario generator to provide narrative context
