Thanks to the hard work of Jared Males and Alfio and Luca the control software is quickly coming together. In this screenshot we can see: (left to right) the Magellan TCS simulation GUI, the Master AO control GUI, the AO Hardware GUI (running 25 hardware subsystems of the AO system –with the CCD47 selected), the CCD39 real-time viewer GUI (showing the PWFS slopes), the VisAO camera control hardware GUI (running 7 hardware subsystems –with CCD47 selected), and finally the VisAO camera real-time display GUI. At this point almost all the functionality needed to close the AO loop has been obtained.
