A wavefront sensing and compensating system for detecting and correcting for distortion in light wavefronts is described in which the wavefront is divided into a plurality of subapertures and light intensified and imaged as spots of light from each subaperture onto a detector array. The individual detector...http://www.google.co.uk/patents/US4737621?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US4737621 - Integrated adaptive optical wavefront sensing and compensating system
