The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Summary
Adaptive Optics for Australian Astronomy, Medicine, Industry, and Defence. Adaptive optics is a technique for correcting wavefront distortions in light beams to improve optical imaging performance. The Research Network for Adaptive Optics aims to draw together isolated Australian and New Zealand research groups working on adaptive optics applications in disparate areas to achieve a critical mass of researchers in this burgeoning field. Adaptive optics has wide application in areas as diverse as ....Adaptive Optics for Australian Astronomy, Medicine, Industry, and Defence. Adaptive optics is a technique for correcting wavefront distortions in light beams to improve optical imaging performance. The Research Network for Adaptive Optics aims to draw together isolated Australian and New Zealand research groups working on adaptive optics applications in disparate areas to achieve a critical mass of researchers in this burgeoning field. Adaptive optics has wide application in areas as diverse as astronomy, vision science, ophthalmology, microscopy, optical communications, laser radar, and laser beam shaping. The Research Network will coordinate and expand Australian involvement in these areas and inform industry, as have similar networks in the USA and Europe.Read moreRead less

Summary
An Integrated Intelligent Bio-machines Network. The increasing use of computing, advanced materials, electronic control with biological or human applications has provided the need to strengthen the nexus of these discipline areas. This proposal is expected to identify the critical areas of integration that can be realistically developed into meaningful technologies and products in the short-to-medium term. The significance of this network is to enhance the science and technology required for sy ....An Integrated Intelligent Bio-machines Network. The increasing use of computing, advanced materials, electronic control with biological or human applications has provided the need to strengthen the nexus of these discipline areas. This proposal is expected to identify the critical areas of integration that can be realistically developed into meaningful technologies and products in the short-to-medium term. The significance of this network is to enhance the science and technology required for systems and products such as bionic eyes, legs, muscles and larynxes. These products and systems characterize the essence of this network: The integration of hardware and software with wetware (Humans).Read moreRead less
