Network Laser System with Remote Diagnostics

In exemplary embodiments, a network laser system comprises a laser platform including an optical source configured to generate an optical pulse, an optical amplifier configured to amplify the optical pulse, and a compressor configured to temporally compress the amplified optical pulse. The network laser system may also comprise monitor circuitry (e.g., sensors) configured to monitor one or more performance aspects of the laser platform. The network laser system may further comprise logic configured to transmit data to a remote computing device over a network. The network laser system may be configured to perform a diagnostic test and/or maintenance in response to instructions received from the remote computing device.
