Saturn is a true innovation in the field of adaptive optics because it can control and manage image aberrations in a more precise and detailed way than the traditional deformable membrane mirrors.
Benefits
Benefits of using the Saturn membrane deformable mirror include:
- New push-pull technology
- Easy to integrate
- Compatible with standard 2” mounts
- Superior flatness at rest
- High optical power
