WaveMe revolutionizes the field of optical metrology with its programmable platform, designed to simplify and enhance a wide array of tasks including Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensing and phase-shifting interferometry. Beyond its core metrology functions, WaveMe supports optical alignment, featuring intuitive annotations, tolerance settings, and URL integration for seamless collaboration with other manufacturing processes.
At the heart of WaveMe is its commitment to user-friendliness and adaptability. It stands out as the go-to solution in optical labs for routine alignment jobs like centering and collimation. What sets WaveMe apart is its intelligent module-switching capability, which adjusts automatically based on the analyzed image content, ensuring the most relevant tools are always at the user’s fingertips. Moreover, its ability to remember its last state empowers users to resume their work effortlessly, right where they left off, making it an indispensable asset in any optical lab.
The phase-shifting interferometry module can be linked to a user-defined library to automate time-consuming interferometry tasks such as deformable mirror or mems calibration. Through synchronization between camera and actuator, and optimized phase unwrapping, 15 measurements per second or more can be achieved over USB3.
WaveMe has been in active development since 2021 and the software is currently in an evaluation phase. The forthcoming integration of a novel hardware component, in conjunction with the existing software, aims to transform the way we work with Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensors and has no counterparts in the industry today.

Requests and Bug Reports
If you like the software but wish it did something differently, or even something entirely new, chances are good that you are not the only one and we are very grateful if you could give us a call or drop an email about it. If we can and it doesn’t interfere with some other functionality of the program, we will do our best to implement it.
And, as much as we try, bugs are a reality of all software. Here we would want to hear from you with some details on how to repeat the problem, or even if the problem is not that easily repeatable, please drop an email to [email protected] and we will make sure it is going into the next release with an email back to you when that happens.
