Enhance Your CODE V Optical Design Experience
Seamless Integration with CODE V Software
Apply lens design changes with a single click to insert, delete, split elements, and insert fold mirrors. Interactive sliders allow quick adjustment to lens parameters (including custom scripts), with real-time feedback on lens performance. Instantly see the effects of lens bendings, shifting a lens, rotating fold mirrors, aspheric coefficients, or even complex relationships for 3rd order corrections of off-axis reflective designs.
Easily recall your favorite performance plots (MTF, spot diagrams, Point Spread Functions, distortion grids, etc.) with the flexibility to arrange charts as desired. Quickly compare the performance of different design forms from a saved list. Automatically create and update performance charts in reports by exporting to Microsoft PowerPoint and Word.
Automatically balance weights on constraints and convert to exact constraints as needed. Quickly see optimization results in a modern dashboard with sortable grids and charts. Reload any optimization cycle for analysis or continuation to optimize from that point.
