Analysis of Synthetic Ronchi and ZPC Datasets in Support of Distortion Computations (DisCo)

Abstract

This report discusses analysis that was conducted during the summer of FY22 in support of the 711 HPW/RHDO modeling project called Distortion Computations of Optics (DisCo), a machine learning effort currently under collaborative development with Applied Research Associates (ARA). Two methods have been developed to evaluate optical distortion patterns observed through transparent eyewear. One such method is the use of wavefront analysis to determine wavefront errors; the other is the use of an optical system that employs a fixed-frequency Ronchi grating to provide a quick visual evaluation, as per the MIL-DTL-43511D.
