Optical Design Software Package
Qiotiq has been developing and supplying opical design software since 1992 [LINOS, Spindler&Hoyer]. The professional Qioptiq optical design software package consists of the following programs
- WinLens 3D: design, analysis & optimisation of optical systems, on-axis and off-axis
- Tolerancer: tolerancing of optical systems, ISO 10110 element drawings
- Glass Manager: database of optical materials / glasses
- Material Editor: utility to create, edit and manage custom materials
A license code is required to run the programs in this software package. After placing an order, the license code will be sent to you, along with a CD containing these programs and other useful software.
In addition the following software, lens database and manuals, all free of charge, are available:
- WinLens Basic: design & analysis of optical systems
- PreDesigner: pre-design & assessment of the paraxial properties of optical systems
- Lens Library: Designs of LINOS catalog components and systems plus a comprehensive library of optical systems, taken from the literature - can be used directly by WinLens
- Manuals: for WinLens, Tolerancer, Glass Manager, Material Editor and PreDesigner
