Abstract
Optical systems often employ off-axis optics to prevent obscuration or because of geometric constraints. Measuring these optics in conventional interferometric setups is challenging: for cases other than off-axis parabolas, a CGH has to be used and setup size grows with the off-axis distance and radius of curvature. Measuring large convex surfaces is particularly difficult. Measurements of theses surfaces using a DUI NMF600 S cylindrical non-contact measurement machine will be demonstrated, showing flexibility, high point density, short measurement times and no setup cost.
