OpticStudio is the industry-leading optical design software that combines complex physics and interactive visuals so you can analyze, simulate, and optimize optical systems all within tolerance specifications. Save time and money by creating a variety of optical, illumination, and laser systems with one software program. Design for manufacturability while you speed time to market and reduce development costs.
About Manufacturability..
OpticStudio is the essential software platform for optical engineers, combining an intuitive user interface with complex physics and interactive visuals to drive faster innovation while reducing development costs. Enabling optical engineers, researchers and scientists to design for manufacturability is the core of our mission.
Zemax puts quick, accurate design tools into the hands of optical engineers with OpticStudio™. Each tool set is aligned with key steps in the engineering design process forming the primary functions of the software. The Analysis, Optimization and Tolerancing tool sets contain an impressive array of physics-based algorithims to analyze, simulate, and optimize optical systems all within tolerance specifications.
Analysis Tools - bring ideas to life with a single, seamless software platform that includes the industry’s most comprehensive set of analysis and simulation tools to create/improve optical, illumination, and laser systems.
Optimization Tools - automatically improve the performance of optical/illumination designs based on user defined constraints, saving time by eliminating manual tests of design iterations.
Tolerancing Tools - advanced tools and features that help design engineers incorporate manufacturing and assembly limits into design constraints to ensure manufacturability and production efficiency.
To enhance the usability OpticStudio includes a comprehensive set of support modules within the software, including stock lens and materials catalogs, user help files, links to knowledgebase articles, and more. To ensure maximum productivity OpticStudio includes each of these modules at no additional cost.
New tools tackle stray light and simulate more photoluminescent materials, plus mobility and usability improvements increase ease of use
New stray light analysis tools help identify and block unwanted rays in optical systems and streamline stray light analysis to deliver accurate, consistent results faster. Optical engineers working on biomedical, automotive lighting, and other applications that use phosphors and fluorescent materials can now model a wider range of these materials. Usability improvements include faster rendering of analysis windows, and faster results in Layout plots and Shaded Model plots when modifying designs. Plus, you can now transfer your soft key license from one computer to another in two easy steps. This release includes the new Bernhard Halle Lens Catalog, new Nikon Material Catalog, and updated catalogs from NHG, Ohara, Zeon, and Hoya.

Zemax is a company that sells optical design software.^[1] OpticStudio is its flagship product and a commonly used optical designprogram for Microsoft Windows.^[2][3][4][5] It is used for the design and analysis of both imaging and illumination systems.

History[edit]

Revelation robben ford pdf manual. OpticStudio, then called Zemax, was originally written by Ken Moore and was the first optical design program specifically written for Windows.^[6][7] It became commercially available in 1990.^[8] The first version was called Max, named after the programmer's dog. The name was later changed to Zemax due to a trademark conflict.^[6] The software was rebranded as OpticStudio in 2016.^[9]

The program was originally sold by Focus Software, which later became Zemax Development Corp.^[10] The latter merged with Radiant Imaging in 2011 to form Radiant Zemax.^[4] In 2014 Radiant sold Zemax to Arlington Capital Partners, which named the company Zemax, LLC.^[11] Arlington Capital Partners sold Zemax to EQT June 26, 2018.^[12]

Features and applications[edit]

Youtube high power usage. OpticStudio is an optical design program that is used to design and analyze imaging systems such as camera lenses, as well as illumination systems. It works by ray tracing—modelling the propagation of rays through an optical system. It can model the effect of optical elements such as simple lenses, aspheric lenses, gradient-index lenses, mirrors, and diffractive optical elements, and can produce standard analysis diagrams such as spot diagrams and ray-fan plots.^[10][13] OpticStudio can also model the effect of optical coatings on the surfaces of components.^[10] It includes a library of stock commercial lenses.^[14] OpticStudio can perform standard sequential ray tracing through optical elements, non-sequential ray tracing for analysis of stray light, and physical optics beam propagation. It also has tolerancing capability, to allow analysis of the effect of manufacturing defects and assembly errors.^[15]

The physical optics propagation feature can be used for problems where diffraction is important, including the propagation of laser beams and the coupling of light into single-mode optical fibers.^[16] OpticStudio's optimization tools can be used to improve an initial lens design by automatically adjusting parameters to maximize performance and reduce aberrations.^[17]
