Read an OpticsBuilder Case Study
“By enhancing its optical design workflow using OpticStudio’s native RCWA algorithm, Vivo boosts productivityto stay innovative and competitive in a fast-moving market.”
Vivo's customers continuously seek new features and improvements that give them the latest and greatest applications for optics technologies. Many of the most impactful recentdevelopments use diffractive optical elements (DOEs), which utilize the wave characteristics of light to achieve new levels of functionality, performance, and miniaturization for camera lenses and augmented reality and virtual reality (AR/VR) equipment.
Designs that include DOE require diffractive optics simulation capabilities beyond those of traditional geometric optics. To achieve these DOE capabilities, Vivo wrote code that implemented the new simulation types needed for testing and tolerancing the DOE-based designs. Vivo remained mindful of the ongoing need to achieve the miniaturization and performance their customers expected. Developing these designs gave Vivo access to valuable new features they could now offer in their cell phone and AR/VR products. Vivo wanted a reliable way of doing this quickly to achieve the time-to-market goals required to maintain a competitive advantage.
What can OpticsBuilder do for you?
Design mechanical structures around optical components in minutes using the exact optical component data through convert and build into native CAD. Avoid errors and costly rework by using dynamic ray tracing in CAD to analyze the impact of mechanical components on optical integrity. Save time by automatically filling optical manufacturing data into CAD drawings pulled directly from Ansys Zemax OpticStudio.
Convert and build into CAD
Save hours spent recreating optics in CAD. Enable CAD users to automatically convert and build lens design data from OpticStudio, including lens materials, positions, sources, wavelengths, and detectors into native CAD parts and assemblies.
Analyze optomechanical packaging
Avoid surprises by catching and correcting errors during initial optomechanical product design. Design mechanical parts correctly the first time. Easily run ray tracing in CAD to analyze how mechanical packaging impacts the optical performance.
Automatically create optical drawings
Share ISO 10110 compliant optical drawings with a push of a button using an automatic optical drawing design export tool that even works with your own custom drawing templates.
