Tracepro by Lambda Research Corporation Case Study: Freeform Optics Design for Illumination Applications

Sarah Lynch_20319

Freeform optical elements give optical designers new and exciting degrees of freedom when it comes to designing optics for illumination applications. These same freeform elements can also add a new layer of complexity to the design process due to added degrees of freedom. This dramatically increases the number of possible solutions to the problem. Modern optical design software can help in this process by allowing the user to automatically test and optimize a large number of parameters to meet a user-defined goal.
