Analysis of the common characteristics of the Hartmann, Ronchi, and Shack–Hartmann tests

An overview of the settings of the planes for the filters and observed patterns in the Hartmann and Ronchi tests is presented. Also a new set of filters for both test were developed. In a similar way, it is easy to extend this analysis to the Shack–Hartmann test, and to propose a new Null Shack–Hartmann filter.
