TLDR
A new phase-unwrapping algorithm is described that uses two phase images with different precision in the unwrapping; this technique can produce an approximately correct unwrapped in the presence of discontinuities.
Abstract
A new phase-unwrapping algorithm is described that uses two phase images with different precision in the unwrapping; this technique can produce an approximately correct unwrapping in the presence of discontinuities. We introduce it into the measurement of a three-dimensional object shape and also present the experimental results.

Digital Wavefront Measuring Interferometer for Testing Optical Surfaces and Lenses

TL;DR: The system has been designed to optimize the collection of data to give higher than usual accuracy in measuring the individual elements and final performance of assembled diffraction limited optical systems, and furthermore, the short loop time of a few minutes makes the system an attractive alternative to constraints imposed by test glasses in the optical shop.
