...It is ideally suited for applications with higher frequencies or very large platforms where the requirements of a full physics method may exceed available computational resources. XGtd’s capabilities extend well beyond standard ray tracing codes, incorporating techniques including Geometric Optics (GO), the Uniform Theory of Diffraction (UTD), Physical Optics (PO), and the Method of Equivalent Currents (MEC). XGtd provides high-fidelity outputs tailored to its intended applications. High-fidelity field predictions in shadow zones including creeping wave effects. Multipath calculations including reflections, transmissions, wedge diffractions, surface diffractions, and creeping waves.

Polaris-M is an optical design and polarization analysis software developed by Airy Optics, Inc., integrating ray tracing-based optical design methods with polarization calculus, 3D simulation, anisotropic materials, diffractive optic simulation, stress birefringence, and diffraction theory. Developed over a decade at the University of Arizona's Polarization Laboratory and licensed to Airy Optics in 2016, it includes over 500 functions for ray tracing, aberration calculation, polarization elements, stress birefringence, diffractive optical elements, polarization ray tracing calculus, and liquid crystal cells and optical elements. ...

...It offers advanced capabilities for designing complex optical components, including freeform surfaces, and provides tools such as global synthesis for global optimization, glass expert for intelligent glass selection, and beam synthesis propagation for accurate diffraction analysis. CODE V's robust tolerancing features help reduce manufacturing costs by predicting and compensating for potential fabrication and assembly errors. The software also facilitates interoperability with other Synopsys tools, such as LightTools, for comprehensive optical and illumination system design. Comprehensive graphics capabilities (pictures, data plots, shaded displays), including 3D visualizations and diffraction-based image simulations.

...OSLO's open architecture provides designers with significant flexibility to define and constrain systems according to their specific requirements. The software is capable of modeling various optical components, including refractive, reflective, diffractive, gradient index, aspheric, and freeform optics. Its robust ray tracing algorithms and analytical tools offer a solid foundation for optimizing and evaluating lenses, telescopes, and other optical systems. OSLO has been employed in designing numerous optical systems, such as space telescopes, camera lenses, zoom lenses, scanning systems, anamorphic systems, cinema systems, microscopes, ocular systems, etc.
