12 Jun 2007 Optical design and analysis software. SPECTER assists the designers involved in the development of various optical devices, such as LCD backlights, LEDs and lighting fixtures, through the three-dimensional optical simulations.
Introducing SPECTER into the design process allows a designer to virtually reproduce the devices and simulate various optical phenomena for analysis of optical characteristics. Involving a virtual trial-and-error process until the results are satisfactory, a designer significantly reduces cost and time required to manufacture innovative optical products.
Design and analysis of light emission:
- Luminance distribution of LCD backlights and frontlights
- State of illumination for car and aircraft instrument panels (panel meters, etc.)
- Light intensity distribution of lighting fixtures (luminaires with reflector, LED lamps, etc.)
- Visibility of automotive lamps (taillight, etc.)
- Luminance distribution of flat light-emitting devices (ad boards, sign boards, etc.)
Design and analysis of light reflection / transmission:
- Efficiency of light guides (light guiding plates, etc.)
- State of light incidence onto light detectors (photo diodes, CCD, etc.)
- Light transformation by optical films (prism sheets, etc.)
- Influence of mirror reflection on a glass surface (car windshield, rear/side windows, etc.)
- State of polarization with polarization filters (linear polarizers, phase shifters, etc.)
- Efficiency of light incidence on the surface of solar battery cells
