Attached is .m file of the custom function that I wrote and used to automatically detect peaks in a Hartmann image,
and calculate the centroid corrdinates of each of those peaks.

A simple example of its usage,  provided that myimage is a two-dimensional image array obtained from the camera, is

radius = 10;

peak_positions = detect_peaks_uml(myimage,radius);

no_of_peaks = length(peak_positions);

centroids_array = zeros(no_of_peaks);

for k = 1:no_of_peaks

  centroids_array(k,1) = peak_positions(k).WeightedCentroid(1);

  centroids_array(k,2) = peak_positions(k).WeightedCentroid(2);

end

I chose my value of radius by looking at spots in a sample image and counting the number of pixels across a peak. It may be 
more useful to automatically obtain a value for the radius. I may run some tests to see how different choices of radius
affect the centroid calculations. 

I may also need to add some error checking and/or image validating codes, but so far I have not encountered any problems. 

Please let me know if anyone needs more explanation!
