Overview


According to FutureWise analysis the market for adaptive optics in 2023 is US$ 0.78 billion, and is expected to reach US$ 4.87 billion by 2031 at a CAGR of 25.82%.

Adaptive optics is a technique designed to correct optical aberrations. It was initially proposed to correct atmospheric turbulence's blurring effect on ground-based telescopes' images. It played a pivotal role in the research that resulted in the Nobel prize-winning discovery of the supermassive compact object at our galaxy's core. When adaptive optics is used to correct the imperfect optics of the eye, retinal differences at the cellular level can be detected, which allows the study of the operation of the visual system and assessment of ocular health in the microscopic discipline. Additionally, by correcting for sample-induced blur in microscopy, adaptive optics has pushed the boundaries of imaging in thick tissue specimens, such as when observing neuronal processes in the brain. 

Adaptive optics are used in many applications, including imaging and non-imaging applications, including biomedical applications, vision, and 3D imaging. 3D imaging uses deformable mirrors to expand the depth range, creating accurate 3D. In vision application, adaptive optics are used in robotic vision and surveillance cameras to deliver real-time or long-distance imaging. In microscopy, adaptive optics are correct for aberrations in static lenses. Biomedical application, including ophthalmology, use adaptive optics to overcome abnormalities caused by the vitreous humor in the human eye to capture high-resolution retinal images or to increase the depth of scanning in optical coherence tomography.
