Adaptive Dynamic Range Wavefront Sensor (ADRWFS)
On March 16, 2004 the United States Patent Office awarded MZA patent number 6,707,020 for the Adaptive Dynamic Range Wavefront Sensor (ADRWFS). The device is an adaptation of a Hartmann wavefront sensor that increases the dynamic range by more than a factor of five without reducing the sensor's accuracy. Bob Praus and Daniel Eastman invented the concept in the fall of 1998.

Using off-the-shelf hardware and our user-friendly graphical user interface, the ICS allows the high-speed capture and recording of CCD camera data. We have demonstrated the use of the ICS to record up to 2,900 frames per second from a 64x64 Dalsa area scan camera. A basic system costs less than $25,000.
We developed software which interfaces Matlab with ODBC-compliant databases. We provide a direct mapping between Matlab structures and database tables. The software is flexible and efficient and has been written with large volume applications in mind.
Data Acquisition and Control Client/Server Applications
Using a variety of technologies, MZA developed a sophisticated client-server system for monitoring and control of data acquisition systems at North Oscura Peak. The system provides numerous benefits including allowing remote control of devices, multicast-based data visualization, and rapid application development.
