	Description:			This text looks at adaptive optics which is the technique of applying real-time corrections within an optical system. This technique has been used in astronomy in the near-infrared and ground-based satellite observation at optical wavelengths. New applications will be found in medical imaging, environmental monitoring, furnace and turbine inspection, intra-cavity laser path compensation, certain cases of underwater inspection, line-of-sight optical communication and others.
