This software is a remake of Foucault Test Image Analyzer created by Dejan Vucinic and published on SourceForge at 2002 (https://sourceforge.net/projects/foucault/).

"If you are an amateur telescope maker, this software can take the tedium out of measuring the shape of your mirror."

Features

  • analyzes pictures taken from Foucault knife-edge moving source tester
  • intuitive user interface
  • stores measurement data along with description of particular polishing cycle
  • draws graphs of mirror surface - multiple measurements can be selected to compare results of polishing cycles
  • written in Java - therefore platform independent
