During some years there was a research of properties of an observation telescope with non-ideal primary mirror and nonlinear optical correction of received images. Different schemes of reading out of the information about primary mirror distortions were investigated, various types of nonlinear correctors were used, and possible ways of creation of a telescope primary mirror with acceptable optical quality were investigated. Brief history of these researches will be given in this paper. The results of real-time holographic correction of image of a moving object observed by a telescope with a membrane primary 300 mm in a diameter will be also discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
