contents The Ingot WFS belongs to a class of pupil-plane WFSs designed to address the challenges posed by Sodium Laser Guide Stars, and consists of a combination of refractive and reflective surfaces, arranged into a complex prismatic shape that extends in three dimensions. Specifically, it leverages the Scheimpflug principle to sense the full 3D volume of such elongated, time-varying sources, thus optimizing the performance of the next-generation AO-assisted giant telescopes. In this work we discuss the geometrical and optical motivations endorsing the development of this class of WFSs, showing the different configurations we propose to the AO community. We also provide a first order comparative analysis with other approaches and review the state-of-the-art of the Ingot project, including improvements made in the laboratory and future milestones.
