TracePro® is a comprehensive, versatile software tool for modeling the propagation of light in imaging and non-imaging opto-mechanical systems. Models are created by importing from a lens design program or a Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) program or by directly creating the solid geometry in TracePro. Source rays propagate through the model with portions of the flux of each ray allocated for absorption, specular reflection and transmission, fluorescence and scatter. From the model and ray trace, analyze:
- Light distributions in illumination and imaging systems
- Stray light, scattered light and aperture diffraction
- Throughput, loss, or system transmittance
- Flux or power absorbed by surfaces and bulk media
- Light scattering in biological tissue
- Polarization effects
- Fluorescence effects
- Birefringence effects
TracePro features a simple, intuitive interface and short learning curve that is both powerful and user-friendly for engineers and scientists of all disciplines.
Three editions of TracePro are available to most cost effectively accommodate design needs. Node locked and floating network licenses are available for use on a single computer with a USB hardware key and on a network respectively. A three month Maintenance and Support Subscription is included with all licenses.
