Ophthalmic instrument with adaptive optic subsystem that measures aberrations (including higher order aberrations) of a human eye and that provides a view of compensation of such aberrations to the human eye
TL;DR: In this paper, an improved ophthalmic instrument for in-vivo examination of a human eye including a wavefront sensor that estimates aberrations in reflections of the light formed as an image on the retina of the human eye and a phase compensator that spatially modulates the phase of incident light to compensate for the aberration estimated by the wavefront sensors.

TL;DR: In this article, the feasibility of using low-order adaptive optics by applying phase-only corrections over horizontal propagation paths is investigated, and a Shack-Hartmann wave-front sensor was built and data were gathered on paths 1 m and 2.5 km.

Thin-Film Piezoelectric Unimorph Actuator-Based Deformable Mirror With a Transferred Silicon Membrane
Eui-Hyeok Yang,Yoshikazu Hishinuma,Jiangong Cheng,Susan Trolier-McKinstry,Eric E. Bloemhof,Bruce Martin Levine +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a proof-of-concept deformable mirror (DM) technology with a continuous single-crystal silicon membrane reflecting surface, based on PbZr0.52Ti0.48O3 (PZT) unimorph membrane microactuators was described.

TL;DR: Optical Planet Discoverer (OPD) is a 1.5m class space telescope concept working as a visible nulling-interferometer imager as mentioned in this paper, which is designed to detect Jupiter-like planets orbiting main sequence stars 10pc away in a few minutes of integration and carry out a low resolution (~20) spectroscopy of their atmosphere.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Visible nulling interferometer
TL;DR: In this paper, the nulling interferometer was used for direct detection of Earth-like planets in the visible domain using a 4m telescope in space, where the stellar leakage is less than le-11 of the starlight at the location of the planet.
