Abstract
An adaptive optical apparatus includes a first deformable mirror that includes a reflecting surface reflecting light propagated through an atmosphere, and a drive unit having a plurality of drive elements and changing an uneven shape of the reflecting surface, a second deformable mirror that includes a reflecting surface reflecting the light from the first deformable mirror and a drive unit having a plurality of drive elements and changing an uneven shape of the reflecting surface, a detector that detects light intensity of the light from the first deformable mirror and the second deformable mirror, and a controller that controls the drive unit of each of the first deformable mirror and the second deformable mirror. The controller is configured to execute a first update operation of controlling the drive unit of one deformable mirror based on a detected value by the detector.
