Methods Documentation
-
__call__(self, wavefront, dt=1, weight=1)¶ Integrate and read out the detector.
This is a convenience function to avoid having to call two functions in quick succession.
- Parameters
- wavefrontWavefront or array_like
The wavefront sets the amount of power generated per unit time.
- dtscalar
The integration time in units of time.
- weightscalar
Weight of every unit of integration time.
- Returns
- output_fieldarray_like
The final detector image.
-
integrate(self, wavefront, dt, weight=1)¶ Integrates the detector.
- Parameters
- wavefrontWavefront or array_like
The wavefront sets the amount of power generated per unit time.
- dtscalar
The integration time in units of time.
- weightscalar
Weight of every unit of integration time.
-
read_out(self)¶ Reads out the detector.
No noise will be added to the image.
- Returns
- output_fieldarray_like
The final detector image.
