Abstract
An object beam is passed through an aberrating medium to produce a diffraction distorted image therein, which is imaged upon a spatial light modulator. A probe beam measures the phase aberrated wavefront within the aberrating medium and is used to produce an interference pattern which is employed to produce phase encoding signals to be fed back to the spatial light modulator for compensating in part for the phase distortion of the phase aberrated wavefront. The result is an output image having a substantially reduced degree of distortion.
