He'e-Lab: A modular testbed for astrophotonics and wavefront sensing development

Sebastien Vievard, Christopher Hamner, Nour Skaf +14

Advanced astronomical instrumentation requires accessible, reconfigurable platforms to validate novel technologies and algorithms before on-sky deployment. We present the design, a…
