Using BeamNotes
BeamNotes shortcuts WaveMe directs keystrokes to the currently selected plugin, and the compositor window captures them. This is built into the plugin API, and all plugins behave this way. When we enable the BeamNotes plugin, keyboard shortcuts control the management of crosshairs. The BeamNotes plugin will always show a target symbol placed at the centroid…

Interferometer – or – Wavefront Sensor
Technology continues to advance, and so do wavefront sensors. One notable improvement has been in wavefront sampling density. Examples of such sensors include the HASO LIFT sensors from Imagine Optics and the QWLSI sensor by Phasics. Each uses a different technique to achieve higher sampling density. The LIFT technique—short for Linearized Focal-plane Technique—is a modern…

Shack-Hartmann Wavefront Sensor Calibration in WaveMe
Calibration and Why it is Needed The WaveMe toolbox has a rather exceptional calibration method that allows for much more flexible use of the Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor. This tech talk will be about what it is and why it is different from what is available elsewhere. We will assume that you, the reader, are already…

Designing a point diffraction interferometer
In this tech talk, we will dive a little deeper into the design of a point diffraction interferometer, or PDI for short. We have talked about it a little superficially in an earlier tech talk but this time, there should be enough for anybody who may consider building one. This application is well supported by…
