Hi,
I am working with a laser light source with 20nm alignment requirements using a XYZ piezo microscope stage. I made some basic code to track the max brightness by adjusting the XYZ piezo stage, but sometimes it will get stuck in a plateau, so I need to store the brightness values in a 3D array and use that to periodically calculate the theoretical max brightness location and then move the XYZ piezos towards that new position. The points aren't equally distributed in 3D space, otherwise I would do a 3D center of mass calculation to find the light source. What would be a good way to find the light source from these 3D brightness points? I can easily find the max brightness in the array of
3D points that have been traversed, but it would be nice to be able to interpolate the max brightness location.cheers, Jamie
