3D System Visualization

To obtain a fundamental understanding of the geometry of an optical system as well as of the positions of the individual elements relative to each other, the fast physical optics modeling and design software VirtualLab Fusion offers specific tools that produce results comparable to those of classic ray tracers. In the latest version, 2023.1, these tools have been overhauled to make them easier to use. We also included new functionalities, such as the ability to make a magnifying glass appear around the cursor, or full-sized rulers around the edges of the document that automatically track the x and y position of the mouse cursor. In the examples below, you can find an in-depth description of the tool itself and an application example of an f-theta lens.
