Adaptive Optics

Adaptive optics are used to improve the performance of optical systems by reducing the effect of wavefront distortions. It’s crucial in astronomy to enhance images by correcting atmospheric distortions in real time, leading to clearer and more detailed observations. For those interested in advanced astronomical equipment, PlaneWave offers cutting-edge adaptive optics solutions like the HartSCI ClearStar, enhancing observational capabilities for serious astronomers and researchers.
