Quadoa - Optical Design Software
Добавлен 5 май 2022
Quadoa Optical CAD is a modern optical design software for the complete prototyping process of optical systems and the first optical design software with a multi-sequential raytracing capability. In combination with an object based architecture it opens up a completely new field of optical design features.
The basic tutorial videos on this channel will help you to learn how to use Quadoa in a fast and easy way in order to quickly get started on working on the technical task, without having to invest a large amount of time on learning how to control the software.

Cooke Triplet Lens Design with Quadoa Optical CAD - Optical Design Software
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.Год назад
This tutorial demonstrates how to design and optimize a lens in Quadoa using a classic Cooke triplet as an example. The design process starts with an empty file from scratch and goes through the design process step by step, from the setup of the start system through the optimization up to the fine tuning of the final lens design.

Optimization: Multiple Merit Function Optimization - Optical Design Software Quadoa Optical CAD
Просмотров 614Год назад
In this tutorial multiple merit functions and multiple sequences are used to optimize an optical system. Using multiple merit functions is of great advantage e.g. for complex systems with several assemblies and multiple ray paths. Further multiple merit functions can be used for Tolerancing to evaluate the optical performance and for setting up compensators.

By setting up Pivot Points for single elements and whole assemblies, it is possible to model and simulate the mechanical dependencies for the tolerance analysis in a very intuitive way, leading to realistic simulation and tolerancing.
Construction: Freeform & Stack Definition - Optical Design Software Quadoa Optical CAD
Просмотров 492Год назад
In this video tutorial we learn how to create freeforms by adding different shapes to a lens (e.g. aspheres, Gauss peak, cosine structure). With the stack definition, any number of shapes can be combined with each other, which gives maximum flexibility with regard to the shape definition of a lens surface.

In this video the difference between a local and a global coordinate system is explained.
Construction: Assemblies - Optical Design Software Quadoa Optical CAD
Просмотров 564Год назад
In this video tutorial multiple lenses are assigned to a common assembly. An assembly has its own coordinate system which allows to position, move or rotate all elements in the assembly, such as lenses or surfaces, together. In addition a tolerance analysis can be performed for a single assembly, which enables a very realistic tolerance analysis of the optical system.

Construction: Absolute & Relative Positions - Optical Design Software Quadoa Optical CAD
Просмотров 211Год назад
This video tutorial explains the absolute or relative positioning of elements within a coordinate system. Relative positions relate to the position of the last surface of the previous element, whereby an absolute positioning is referring to the absolute value in the coordinate system.

The software layout is definitely better than Zemax. Great to see this!
Nice! Now I can design my own 10 mm - 1200 mm 1.4f lightweight zoom lens
Thanks for the video highly recommended. Can you do the fiber optic propagation using this software?
The Quadoa Wave Optics Toolbox provides beamlet propagation methods that allow to simulate wave-optical phenomena like interference and diffraction or free space propagation of coherent beams as well as single- and multi mode fiber coupling.
@@quadoa Can you do a video regarding that it would be very beneficial to me
do you support distortion optimization when working with anamorphic lenses
Yes, this is possible. If you need any help with setting up the merit-function please contact the Quadoa support.

Do you organize training to students? can it be downloaded with your permission?
There are organized Quadoa training seminars e.g. in Jena, Germany optonet-jena.de/events/master-optical-design/?lang=en . Quadoa offers free student licenses within the Quadoa Student Program. You can apply for a free student license here: www.quadoa.com/license-education
Great example thank you.
Hi. Do you have any plans to do compatibility work for macos?
Unfortunately Apple discontinued official support for OpenGl which is required by Quadoa. So there won't be a MacOS version in the near future. It is however possible to run Quadoa in a Virtual Machine. We have successfully tested this on a Parallels VM but can't guarantee general compatibility
@@quadoa thans for information. Which mac model did you tested with wm parallel? On arm chip or intel?
@@cahitatlas Intel Core i5, but should also work on ARM chips
Does this support assemblies that have fiber optics? Can this handle several fiber optics on one assembly? Do you have a material library of optical materials?
Quadoa can model fiber coupling efficiency, but not fiber propagation. Quadoa has an optical material library integrated.
Too bad there's no synchronised time dilation trichromatic anastigmat separation generator. Would buy it if it did.
I know, there’s not even a workable solution to eliminate sinusoidal deplaneration
Incredible, glad this exists
😂❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂
Great tutorial to follow along the construction! My secondary mirror is positioned slightly off - which confuses me, since I have copied everything 1:1. It would be helpful to find this construction in the example-folder or another source, where the completed file could be downloaded. Now converting this to my own project ...
Hi Daargad, Thanks for the nice comment. The model is already included in the Quadoa telescope example folder. For further details please write a short mail to info at quadoa.com. Thanks
hot sh***te
Thanks for sharing: Is it possible to design a system with a magnification (50x) of an object on a camera?
Yes sure, you can check out the microscope objective example files
@@quadoa Thank you. Where can i read off the value of the magnification? Please
@@lydiaewande8813 You can open the optical properties report under Analysis --> Reports
Windows only, good grief. Do you implement Buchdahl aberrations (mono- and chromatic)?
Quadoa is running on linux as well
@@quadoa Thanks, that's great! I'll try your demo version soon, looks like I need to upgrade my Linux box 🙂 The reason I asked about Buchdahl is that I wrote a program that calculates all of his aberration coefficients in full generality (any order, aspherics included, chromatic aberration coefficients, in any coordinates ("any" means "generalised paracanonical" in his terminology)). And I started playing with it and it's a rather interesting bag. High order aberration coefficients, like order 15 (Buchdahl would call it "order 7" as "n" for him means "order 2n+1" in modern terminology) can get very large, esp. with larger curvatures, a pattern already visible in his papers in which he calculates order 9 and 11 spherical aberration coefficients. But here is an interesting thing I ran across last week: I took a Zemax-optimised lens from the web and compared it to a Ludwig-Bertele-designed lens from US Pat. US3154628A (Example 4). Both are reasonably complex, 17 and 19 surfaces, respectively. Surprise: Bertele's design seems much better as far as the coefficients go. Even normalising for the larger surface curvatures, the difference in the coefficients is clear. I don't know what to think except being very impressed how Ludwig Bertele could do it with just logarithmic tables! And why Zemax wouldn't optimise better? Anyway, I thought this was interesting, sorry to talk your ear off.
