Scientific paper

It is presently noted that the availability of CCD cameras, in conjunction with state-of-the-art computer hardware and software, render Hartmann testing in optical shops a viable alternative to, or checking procedure for, other types of tests. An evaluation is made of data reduction methods for this test. While the reduction of data-fitting to derivatives of Zernike polynomials filters out high-frequency surface information, and runs the risk of yielding incorrect coefficients, it may be able to find special-purpose applications. The least-square integration of a surface is reliable, but time-consuming in the case of large data sets. Subaperture Hartmann results can be assembled to obtain the entire surface; rastering can double the high spatial frequency spatial information of the surface.
