2. www.cybernet.com Optical System Fault Management (OSFM )  Current Development Work for USAF  Provide software maintenance monitoring system for the Airborne Laser Optics and Diagnostics System.  Create intuitive interfaces for operators to access sensor data and evaluate past events  Supported by Small Business Innovative Research Grant (SBIR) – Kirtland AFB and MDA Note: A key goal in SBIR program is to create dual- use technology (military/commercial).

3. www.cybernet.com Various Markets for Diagnostic Software  Software modules developed for military and commercial laser manufacturers  Image analysis algorithms to assess beam quality  Intuitive User Interface  Archiving of performance data  Real-time remote control of actuators, etc in beam path. Provide remote diagnostics and assessment of field-based laser systems Industrial Lasers Medical Lasers

4. www.cybernet.com Why Develop this Software? A need exists to monitor high value optics in critical laser systems  Identify degradation on key subsystems using sensors  Monitor high value optics during operation  Assure consistent performance over time  Provide laser operators with easy access to laser data  Provide an intuitive interface to look at current and historic data.  Access historic data and compare with current data  Complex problems can have complex history

5. www.cybernet.com Remote Diagnostics & Data Sharing Performance Databases ABL Laser Operators Sensors Integrated into Laser EZ access to data Graphical Interface Data Logs

6. www.cybernet.com Real-time and Historic Data  View data from Laser during operation  View multiple feeds from data sensors  Archive data into database  Compare current data from historic data  Access historic data from database  Compare trends, max/min data points, etc. or

7. www.cybernet.com Current Software Development  Access Data from sensors on Laser  Exchange data with a commercial database.  Create a toolkit that allows the operator to easily manipulate sensor data and track trends.  Create a Drag ‘n Drop tool to assign sensors to specific optics.  User tests

10. www.cybernet.com Optical System Fault Monitor Software  Current status:  Gets average, min, max, and histogram of intensity values  Sets (and gets) polygon bounds between image and background  Converts between color schemes  Converts to binary, gets skeleton image, centroid, ratio  Inverts, softens, copies, crops, zooms in and out

11. www.cybernet.com Under Development  Peak position and centroid  OSFM already calculates these  User needs to specify threshold  Intensity distribution w/histogram  Total and peak power  Beam width measurements (integrated power).

12. www.cybernet.com Next Additions  User-specified aperture  Add circle, ellipse to polygon  3D graphics  Percent power within aperture  Uniformity: formula, convert integrals to sums  Limit calculations to user-defined areas

13. www.cybernet.com Statistical analysis  Mean, standard dev, min, max, graph of any calculation over time  Slope/regression line  Pass/fail notification with min/max parameters Note: Pass/Fail notification can be automated with alerts being sent to maintenance personnel

14. www.cybernet.com  Image processing block has been developed that incorporates image manipulation algorithms from Cybernet’s library:  Edge-finding  Feature extraction  Image comparison  Image format translation  Images can be displayed statically, as a sequence, or as full-motion video (FMV). Image Processing

15. www.cybernet.com Database on Central Server  Centralized storage of data from individual lasers in the field  Secure, accessible  Structure based on existing Web database developed for medical data.  Supports searches, archiving of data  Instant Access to Maintenance Documents Example of Database Screen from Cybernet’s Medical Server

16. www.cybernet.com Drag’n’Drop Laser Bench Configuration Editor  In order to be flexible, our system design includes a tool for defining the optical component train and sensors used to monitor it.  This is a visual aid to “link”a given sensor to a given location on the laser bench.
