Qioptiq Webinar Apr 24, 2018 - Optical Design with WinLens3D

Recording of the Qioptiq webinar April 24, 2018 on Optical design for teaching and professional use - WinLens3D. An informative tutorial on the uses of the FREE Base version of this powerful and easy-to-use simulation program for Qioptiq's vast array of Singlets, Achromats, Plano Optics, mirrors and gratings.

Thank you for making this video and making the basic version free. This is a game changer for a new student in optics with no prior experience and limited financial resources. It certainly break down entry barrier for us. Hope to see more of these tutorials and maybe a discussion forum.

This is pure gold!

Awesome thanks!

Thank you for sharing this. Everyone who doesn't want to pay 16kUSD for Zemax - just to do some optics design sometimes - will make a good use of it.

Thanks for amazing explaination. I would like to know how to apply high temperature effects in the optical design.

Before I watch the whole video, is there a place I can skip to in order to see how to do aspherical surfaces?

Hello, can the Cooke triplet be generated in the Windlens3D program? Thx for answer.

[@denizuzun5577]

is there any possibility to design axicon lens with this software

[@thiagoc.]

Is there a maximum number of surfaces permitted with WinLens free?

[@DIY-Optics]

It's only limited by your RAM, I guess. It works with about 50 optical elements for sure..
