The
Adoptics ® software is the core of AO systems developed for
Northrop Grumman, Sandia Corporation, The University of Illinois, and
Georgia State University. This
image of Jupiter and Io was made using the AO system on the Mt. Wilson
100" Hooker telescope.

Riptide develops software
for real time processing in multi-core architectures and computing
clusters. A multi-core version of the Adoptics software was used
in this 16 core AMD Opteron system delivered to Northrop Grumman. |
|
FPGA implementations include an Altera
Stratix- based 277-actuator floating point complex exponential
wavefront reconstructor algorithm. Additional product designs have been
implemented in Altera Cyclone, Arria GX and Xilinx FPGAs. |
|
Using a combination of
COTS hardware and in-house FPGA designs, Riptide designs
interfaces for high frame rate cameras and opto-electronic output
devices. Shown is an 80 MegaActuator/second PCIe interface to a Xinetics
DM amplifier system using the SOR-422 protocol. |

This deformable mirror
diagnostic window is one of the user-friendly control and diagnostic windows
included in the Adoptics GUI. |
