Distracted

I got a new laptop this week, so progress was...muted. I was able to write some code to generate superpixels for the SLM, and I used it to get some preliminary poke matrix data. Basically the phase response is pretty strange as the individual pixel values change and I haven't quite figured it out yet. I did learn though that the WFS isn't capable of really detecting unit changes in pixel values, however. Luckily this doesn't really matter much since I intend to use the SLM primarily to product noise of a particular bandwidth.

I have a large trip planned at the end of next week, so I'm not sure how preoccupied I'll be over the next few days preparing. Ideally, I'd like to take another look at the experimental implementation of the gradient descent and look at how it responds to (slowly) changing disturbances. Maybe like step changes every 100 iterations or something like that.
