Optical Theory

Overview

ANSYS SPEOS software will enable you to simulate the light within your system.

This course is created for non-optical users who need to learn the basics of optical theory. In this course, you will get familiarized with some basic notions in optics that will allow you to understand how our simulation software work. You will be familiarized with the different methods to measure and analyze the visual spectrum such as radiometry, photometry and colorimetry, and how the human eye perceives light. You will also find a help sheet listing the formulas used to calculate light.
