PROJECT / In progress
Closed-Loop Fringe Locking
Calibration and cyclic control validated
Connecting line-scan acquisition, phase demodulation, and piezoelectric compensation for holographic gratings.
Experimental feedback loop
Calibration and cyclic control completed in July 2026
Software integration
Qt/C++ camera acquisition and piezoelectric control in progress

Results
Completed system calibration and cyclic-control validation in July 2026, connecting camera acquisition, phase demodulation, and piezoelectric compensation.
Problem & method
Environmental disturbances move interference fringes during holographic grating fabrication. The system captures a reference fringe, demodulates at a fixed carrier frequency, and uses calibration to convert phase error into piezoelectric compensation.
My contribution
- Integrated a line-scan camera and tested acquisition and calibration.
- Developed MATLAB control software and helped validate the feedback loop.
- Advanced a Qt/C++ desktop application with camera and serial piezoelectric drivers.
Current status
The MATLAB experimental loop is validated. Qt/C++ migration and hardware testing continue; locking accuracy, response time, and long-term stability still require measurement.
