Abstract

The requirements for testing the optical systems associated with advanced EO sensors and displays have become more and more demanding over recent years. Using conventional visual optical test techniques, optical contractors would be faced with prolonged testing programs to ensure compliance of the latest generations of optical equipments with the relevant specifications. The advent of the mini-computer and the development of signal processing techniques has opened up a new vista to those involved in optics testing. The paper will describe examples of how optical requirements have been interpreted and the approaches that have been adopted to proving optical performance.
