The evaluation of optical systems determines how the product is perceived and even whether or not it can be used in the intended manner.
Optical simulation with Ansys across the entire product lifecycle
With the Ansys optics product portfolio, you can implement light guide optimization for different applications or visual testing of the interactions of systems over the entire product lifecycle. Whether for design, engineering, validation or visual presentation (rendering), each representation is strictly physics based and therefore highly realistic.
Highlights at a glance
- Physics-based, realistic results
- Flexible CAD integration (PTC CREO, Siemens NX …)
- Extensive material libraries
- SpaceClaim-based version available
