DESCRIPTION:
Jason Porter, PhD, is a post-doctoral research fellow at the University of Rochester's Center for Visual Science in the laboratory of Dr. Julianna E. David R. Williams. Lin, M.Eng, is a member of the Research and Technology Staff for the Xerox Innovation Group at the Wilson Center for Re
An excelent resource Daniel Gray This book is a useful resource for those experienced in the field of adaptive optics for vision science and those just learning about the subject. I continue to use the book on a regular basis for reference and also find it very useful in educating others of the best practices in the field.An essential book for anyone involved in AO and vision.
Moreover, readers will discover the latest thinking and findings from the leading innovators in the field.. The material for this book stems from collaborations fostered by the Center for Adaptive Optics, a consortium of more than thirty universities, government laboratories, and corporations.Although the book is written primarily for researchers in vision science and ophthalmology, the field of adaptive optics has strong roots in astronomy. Researchers in both fields share this technology and, for this reason, the book includes chapters by both astronomers and vision scientists.Following the introduction, chapters are divided into the following sections:Wavefront Measurement and CorrectionRetinal Imaging ApplicationsVision Correction ApplicationsDesign ExamplesReaders will discover the rema
Moreover, readers will discover the latest thinking and findings from the leading innovators in the field.. Adaptive Optics for Vision Science arms engineers, scientists, clinicians, and students with the basic concepts, engineering tools, and techniques needed to master adaptive optics applications in vision science and ophthalmology. An appendix includes the Optical Society of America's Standards for Reporting Optical Aberrations. A glossary of terms and a symbol table are also included. Leading experts present the latest technology and applications in adaptive optics for vision science Featuring contributions from the foremost researchers in the field, Adaptive Optics for Vision Science is the first book devoted entirely to providing the fundamentals of adaptive optics along with its practical applications in vision science. Although the book is written primarily for researchers in vision science and ophthalmology, the field of adaptive optics has strong roots in astronomy.
