When Optics Met WaveMe

Much like “When Harry Met Sally”, discovering the depths of their relationship over time, integrating WaveMe into your lab toolbox is an evolving partnership that blossoms with investment and effort. At first maybe you noticed how simple and effortless WaveMe’s wavefront sensing was, but the real magic unfolds as you dive deeper, taking advantage of its open interface and extensibility.

As you customize and expand upon its capabilities, WaveMe transforms from a mere take-it-or-leave-it software solution of some well-known optical metrology techniques into a trusted collaborator in your day-to-day efforts of transforming the impossible into the viable. Each adjustment and extension uncovers new possibilities, mirroring how investing time in a relationship reveals profound connections and benefits.

Just as Harry and Sally realized that their enduring friendship and understanding were built over years of shared experiences, you’ll find that WaveMe grows alongside you. The more you put into it, the more it enhances your work—offering seamless integration between optics and software that adapts to your evolving needs. In the end, it’s not just about having a powerful tool; it’s about cultivating a partnership that leads to greater insights and success in your lab and manufacturing endeavours.

Relationships are tough. As humans, starting from scratch is pretty much the only option. We have to learn to solve the same problems that most humans solved before us.

With software, this is not be the case. Starting from scratch is the equivalent of starting years behind. WaveMe, like a good mentor, offers solutions to problems we’ll all necessarily run into when trying to evolve an idea into a tool that you use and rely on. But to understand the philosophy behind WaveMe, we have to move on from the relation of Harry and Sally. They say, and who is they by the way, that you shouldn’t try to change your partner in a relationship. This where analogy ends. WaveMe is designed to be shaped. If the standard tools fit you, by all means, it is the way to go. If it doesn’t, then there are two options. Either accept the “four-fingered glove” and live with it or find something that can be made into a proper one. This is WaveMe.
