Adaptive optics (AO) is a technique of correcting influence of turbulence induced by propagation medium and enabling observations of detailed structures of objects. We have developed an AO system for a solar telescope, in which a correlation-based wavefront sensing technique is used. We have recently started to develop an AO system for biological microscopes using the correlation-based technique. I will describe both the systems and show some observational results.
