Paper Abstract
The advent of high performance multi-core processors in desktop computers has opened the door for high
performance, yet easy to maintain and upgrade, adaptive optics control systems. We describe the Durham
Adaptive Optics Real-time Controller, and give details of performance, including latency and jitter, and maximum
frame rates as well as scalability with adaptive optics system size. This system is to be used as a laboratory test
bench in Durham with low and high order (up to 32×32 actuators) systems, and also on-sky as a control system
for a WHT MOAO demonstrator instrument.
