    • Bandwidth 400-700nm (Useable to over 1000nm)
    • Optimum Beam input size is ~2.7mm by 2.7 mm
  • Multiple Sensors and User's Optional Far-Field Cameras
    • User Friendly GUI
    • All data windows are printable and freezable
    •  User can select custom GUI window layouts
  • Uses Acosta Algorithms to do Zernike analyses (up to order 50)
  • Real Time Measurement and Display
    •   > 15 Frames per second (typical, some variance depending on display
           options selected)
  • User Configurable Data Output and Logging
    • Continuous, Time Interval (every n frames), User Action (push button)
    • Slopes at Every Integration area (Comma separated values format)
    •  Zernikes (Comma separated values format)
    • Establishes and Updates Shared Files for External Program Access and
           Ingestion (i.e., drive your own hardware)
  • Flexible GUI Displays are user selectable:
    • Raw Image (from CCD camera)
    • Spot Centers
    • Spot RMS Size

Wavefront Sensor Specifications



Hartmann Sensor Specifications

  • Uses 120 µm pinholes
  • 20 x 20 integration Areas
  • 134.4 µm integration area spacing
  • "Focal Length" ~6.0 mm at 633 nm

Shack-Hartmann Sensor Specifications

  • Uses 5.7 mm focal length fused silica Lenslet Array
  • 30 x 30 integration areas
  • 110 µm integration area spacing

Data Output Mode and Interfaces

Log Files are written in shared mode so that a user may open the files in Read Only Mode on the same master computer and access the data in pseudo real time.   A sample C++ program is included.   The typical user would read the Zernike files from storage and use them to drive external hardware such as a deformable mirror to close an adaptive optics loop.   Data is available to user <3msec after each frame.
