Absolute planarity with three-flat test: an iterative approach with Zernike polynomials.
An iterative algorithm to analyze three-flat test data for absolute planarity measurements is presented. Using the properties of Zernike polynomial representations, results are achieved in a fast and effective manner. Details and demonstrative examples are provided.
