Astronomical observatories use several techniques to compensate for distortions in images caused by our atmosphere.

Adaptive optics, which combines wavefront sensing with deformable mirrors to allow the correction of unwanted optical distortions, was initially developed by the military to send laser beams into ...

Be it on a mountain top in a telescope, in a cryogenic dewar, in a precision laser micromachining system on a factory floor, or in a research laboratory, Iris AO has DMs suited for your needs.

By combining these technologies AOS developed both conventional wavefront-sensor adaptive optics systems and metric AO systems. The most recent work at AOS has been in demonstrating laser beam shaping ...

in a project known as the MEMS-AO/Visible Light Laser Guidestar Experiments, led by Don Gavel, director of the University of California Santa Cruz Laboratory for Adaptive Optics (LAO). This ...

Appotronics, the inventor of ALPD® laser display technology, is at CES 2025 showcasing its cutting-edge optics products for the automotive industry, home entertainment, AI-powered AR glasses, and ...
