Unlocking the Secrets of the Universe with Precision Adaptive Optics

Penetrating deep space to unlock the secrets of the universe, the ESO Extremely Large Telescope uses adaptive optics to correct for atmospheric disturbances to extract more light, achieving higher-resolution imaging. 

Among the technologies required, Microgate provides the control systems that mechanically deform the mirror to manipulate the observed wavefront to correct for atmospheric disturbances and improve the image quality using contactless, linear voice-coil motors.
