Description

RayLab is an application for design and simulation of optics. It can be used either as a learning tool or for the design of real optical systems.

Basic version includes:
• Ability to model 2D lenses and mirrors
• Full control over placement and shape of optical components
• Full control over aspheric surface shape parameters
• Full geometric ray tracing
• Sequential and Non Sequential analysis
• Front Focal Length, Back Focal Length, Principle Surface calculations
• Sample Models

Upgrade to RayLab Pro enables:
• 3D Modeling
• Advanced Optical Elements such as Lens Arrays, Diffraction Gratings, Prisms, Fresnel Lenses, etc.
• Polarization Ray Tracing
* Ray Splitting / Beam Splitter modeling
• Multi-Configuration Manager and animation functionality
• Ability to perform optimizations of design parameters
• Ray Transfer Matrix calculation
• Various commercial glass catalogs

Astonishingly Good !!

This is an App that I never thought I would find ... and it works very well indeed.

I am old enough to remember colleagues at work doing ray-traces by hand, with only a slide-rule and log tables for assistance; and recently I drew a ball lens [to show its spherical aberration] ray-by-ray in a CAD package. ... This tedious exercise, of course, only gave me a result for one wavelength and one refractive index.

Compare that with the performance of this App ... which, on an iPad Pro 9.7" responds almost instantaneously to parameter changes.

Highly recommended to anyone with an interest in Optics.
... It could easily justify the purchase of an iPad.

The developer is very responsive and helpful too.

Great app

Great app with seemingly endless development! I look forward now to an update notification such is the progress. Very responsive developer too - already had one of my requests implemented. Keep up the good work!

Excellent app to help understand lenses

An excellent bit of software at a good price. More tweaks and useful features are coming as well, so anyone interested in lens design should take a look
