MPIA is providing a private 3-day training by Zemax for OpticStudio for optical engineers and scientists.
Choose the days you want to attend with the easy per day pricing. The course includes an overview of the principles of optical design, hands-on experience so you can use your time more effectively, and examples to work through after class.
This course will focus on “Optical System Design Using OpticStudio” with the emphasis on “Using
OpticStudio.” We will cover the OpticStudio user interface, teach set up and optimization of simple sequential optical systems (singlet, doublet), demonstration of sequential analysis features such as ray fan, OPD plot, spot diagram, MTF, point spread function, encircled energy, image analysis, and more. You will also be introduced to Non-Sequential and Mixed Mode optical system design.
