Multi-conjugate Adaptive optics Demonstrator

Multi-conjugate Adaptive optics Demonstrator (MAD) is an instrument that allowed the

blurring removed. As with other adaptive optics systems, it works by performing real-time corrections to the atmospheric turbulence by means of computer-controlled deformable mirrors. Its particularity is the correction over a wider field of view than previous systems, which only used a single deformable mirror.[1][2]
