About this technology

Overview

Coronagraphs are a promising technology for the direct imaging of exoplanets at high contrast. To provide peak performance, coronagraphs must be well aligned and calibrated. This software package provides alignment and calibration routines for several common types of coronagraphs, along with functional tests to demonstrate the accuracy of the provided algorithms.
