Claim Text:
1. A system for generating aberration-compensated images, the system comprising: an optical system that collects incoherent light from an object field; an interferometer that receives the light collected by the optical system, the interferometer including a first mirror having a first radius of curvature, a second mirror having a second radius of curvature that is different from the first radius of curvature, a beam splitter configured to send copies of the received light to each of the mirrors, and a camera that receives light waves reflected by each of the mirrors and generates interferograms from the interfering light waves; and a computing system that executes an aberration compensation program configured to receive the interferograms from the inteferometer and generate an aberration-compensated image of the object field based upon the interferograms.
