Overview

Light and optics, the transformative forces of our time, are an integral part of our lives. From illuminating our homes to cities, improving safety in mobility, advancing healthcare imaging, revolutionizing manufacturing, and unveiling mysteries in astronomy, these technologies are shaping our world. Driven by technological innovation, a range of optical applications, including Lidar sensors, adaptive headlights, HUDs, AR, lasers, cameras, telescopes, and machine vision systems, are at the forefront of this transformation.

However, engineering these applications requires comprehensive optical analysis to ensure their performance, reliability, durability, and compatibility. Simulation is vital in engineering the most efficient and reliable products with significant cost and time savings. It empowers engineers to perform multiphysics analysis, sensor modeling, virtual validation, and accurate prediction of failure risks—even before prototyping.

This summit brings together engineering leaders and simulation experts to discuss various aspects of optical product design, challenges, best practices, and the role of simulation. Participants will gain insights into topics ranging from complex multi-physics to digital engineering and how to accelerate design and innovation.
