Description

Integrating Monte Carlo ray tracing, analytical methods, CAD import/export capabilities, and optimization techniques, this system employs a comprehensive macro language to tackle various challenges in illumination design and optical analysis effectively. With TracePro’s intuitive 3D CAD interface, users can build models by either importing lens design or CAD files or by directly generating solid geometries. The software leverages a true solid modeling engine to deliver reliable and consistent models for various applications. Moreover, TracePro features a swift and precise ray tracing engine that accurately traces rays to all surfaces, including imported splines, ensuring that no intersections are overlooked and preventing the occurrence of “leaky” rays. One of the standout features of TracePro is its Analysis Mode, which provides a highly interactive environment for in-depth examination. In this mode, users can evaluate every surface and object both visually and quantitatively, enhancing the overall analytical experience. This blend of capabilities makes TracePro a powerful tool for professionals in the field.
