WaveScope Wavefront Sensor

WaveScope Analysis Software

A flexible, user extensible set of software tools has been designed for the efficient reduction and analysis of wavefront and image data. Written in the Tk/Tcl scripting language, a unified Hartmann data reduction package is presented in a user friendly GUI (graphical user interface).

Virtually any type of sensor data may be reduced and analyzed to yield OPD, PSF, MTF and most other commonly used quantities. Data visualization tools ranging from simple greyscale displays to vector movies are incorporated for data interpretation.

Customized scripts and algorithms may be added by the user using the WaveScope toolset.

How it Works

The software will analyze data that has been acquired either in single frame or multiple frame mode. The GUI guides the user through the process of calibration, data display, and all analysis functions. The calibration is automated with optional user choice of aperture shapes, and editing of the active subaperture map.

User Customizable Scripting

The unique advantage of WaveScope's software is that it has the ability to allow the user to create custom scripts for commonly repeated data acquisition or analysis tasks.
