class hcipy.wavefront_sensing.WavefrontSensorEstimator

Bases: object

The estimator for a wavefront sensor.

This object serves as the base class for all estimators in a wavefront sensor. It calculates from a list of images what the wavefront is. This wavefront can be anything that responds to wavefront changes, such as slopes, pupil amplitude, etc…

estimate(self, images)

Estimate the wavefront from images.

Methods Documentation
