Undistort module?
« on: 2012 June 15 14:04:00 »
Is it possible that a module could/would be written that takes into account optical abberations and correct them digitally? I know that deconvolution tries to look at the PSF of some stars and adjust the image accordingly, but for example, if a field flattener isn't an exact match for the scope and that results in elongated stars in the corners, could that be measured and corrected?

Hello Bob, hope you get a favorable answer to your concern as i do wish
i could do the same with my often distorted stars from a f/2.5 newtonian reflector :'(

The smaller stars are mostly unaffected, so the correction could be applied to what is seen by the star mask
application ?
