Imagine Optic’s HASO HP 16 wavefront sensor offers professionals unsurpassed quality, precision and ease of use. Key features include:

• highest absolute accuracy of λ/200 rms

• highest relative accuracy of λ/300 rms

• simultaneous and independent measurement of both phase & intensity

• true absolute measurement

• unbeatable accuracy and dynamic range

• temperature stabilized for long term measurements

Exceptional results come from accurate measurement. We conceive, build and support our products to meet and exceed our customers’ needs. For over 10 years, Imagine Optic’s wavefront sensors have become an industry standard for reliability and durability. Their independent yet simultaneous measurements of both phase and intensity are key in consistently providing customers with the high-quality wavefront metrology results they can depend on.
HASO HP 16 is based on our patented Shack-Hartmann technology. Fast, performing and easy to integrate, their insensitivity to vibration and compact design make them the ideal choice for demanding industrial and scientific applications.
In laser and optical metrology, your HASO 16 HP wavefront sensor used with HASOv3 software enables you to:
• conduct zonal and modal wavefront reconstruction
• visualize the spot diagram and raw camera data
• calculate the PSF*, MTF* and Strehl ratio*
• obtain the M²* parameter
For adaptive optics, HASO3 coupled with our CASAO™ software, lets you:
• perform precision metrology to control your active components including deformable mirrors and SLM
• perfect your beam’s shape and optimize its focal spot
