Puntino: Dual-channel, for astronomical telescopes

Puntino: optimize telescope performance with a powerful set of tools. Cover focal ratios from f/5 to f/18

SpotOptics developed the system for testing the Heads-Up Display (HUD) in the production line for a German company working in the automotive industry. SpotOptics wavefront sensor Omi and Shack-Hartmann analysis software SenSoft were used to get the quality of the system.

Testing lenses with Optino: measure stress due to lens mounting

SpotOptics Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor Optino and SenSoft software were used to test an ophthalmic lens held in a 3-point clamp.

Output results from Sensoft analysis are the table with the Zernike coefficients (at left in the figure below) and several graphs.

Astronomical telescope test with Puntino: measure stress due to supports

SpotOptics wavefront sensor Puntino and SenSoft software were used for analyzing a 1.5m mirror telescope in 1996. Since the Telescope has an annular pupil, the Annular Zernike polynomials were implemented in SenSoft together with the Standard Zernike, Fringe Zernike and Seidel polynomials. After the calculation of the Annular Zernike aberration terms, the wavefront was reconstructed mathematical removing all of the Zernike terms (this is a feature of our software Sensoft): the resulting mirror surface map (left) clearly follows the mirror support map (right).
