Find Least Sensitive Designs faster and easier

with K2's Integrated Visual Tools for Global Optimization

Nominal performance is great, but as-built performance is what matters. K2 makes using Synopsys' Global Synthesis a snap.

Tip:  Using the SN2 constraint increases the number of manufacturable design forms

Least Sensitive, Visualized

  • Find least sensitive designs faster with visual plots of nominal vs as-built.
  • This example compares two design forms for a simple cell phone lens.
  • The design on the left has better as-built performance, shown by TOR’s cumulative probability plots.
  • The design on the right has better nominal performance, shown by the spot diagram, but the as-built is worse due to the decentration sensitivity of the highly aspheric 3rd and 4th elements.

As-Built Designs, Integrated

  • K2 automatically integrates this amazing visual tool using TOR’s lightning-fast algorithm for as-built performance.
  • Any found design forms can be loaded, analyzed, and locally optimized in real-time while GS continues to find new forms in the background!

Compare Results in Just a Few Clicks

  • Save time comparing candidate designs with K2’s Lens Comparison Tool.
  • Simply click on any design form and select “Add to Lens Manager”.
  • Then, run any analysis and get side-by-side results for each design form.
