The WaveFront Sensor (WFS) and loop Software Development Kit (SDK) are an easy to use SDK especially designed for Adaptive Optics (AO) systems.
It offers:
- an intuitive Application Programming Interface (API) to perform wavefront sensor measurement
- an AO closed-loop control to be integrated in your final software,
- slope measurement,
- Zernike modal reconstruction and decomposition.
The API is available in C, C++, Python and MATLAB.
Using Alpao Core Engine (ACE), our innovative and flexible software, controlling an AO loop has never been so easy!
ACE is an innovative, flexible software architecture for adaptive optics. ACE allows you to quickly and efficiently develop your own adaptive optics instruments.
With ACE’s object-oriented, modular architecture, you use only the modules needed to work efficiently. Performance is not sacrificed for ease-of-use. With ACE, it is possible to close the Adaptive Optics loop up to 1200Hz using Bertin Alpao’s deformable mirrors and wavefront sensors.
