[VIDEO] How to Measure a Cylinder Optic

A single cylinder computer-generated hologram (or CGH) can measure a range of cylinder optics. Using existing interferometry, turn your standard Fizeau interferometer into a cylinder measuring machine. Adding a CGH to an interferometer provides high-resolution, full aperture, snapshot measurement of cylindrical surfaces.

In this video, AOM Applications Engineer Dr. Christine Muccianti provides a high-level overview on how to align and measure a cylinder optic using an AOM standard cylinder CGH.
