SWIR Wavefront Sensor

The HASO SWIR wavefront sensor utilizes an InGaAs camera, providing superior accuracy, a broad dynamic range, and high-speed performance across the SWIR 0.9-1.7 µm wavelength range. Tailored for applications in optical metrology and adaptive optics, the HASO SWIR stands out with key features:

  • Achieving λ/100 rms accuracy within the 0.9 – 1.7 µm wavelength range
  • Simultaneous and independent measurement of both phase and intensity
  • True absolute measurement capability
  • A large dynamic range to accommodate varied optical conditions
  • High acquisition frequency, reaching up to 99 Hz

The ideal tool for optical metrology and adaptive optics applications such as long-range communication.
