Synopsys Inc. has launched new and improved interoperability features between CODE V and LightTools, which enable designers to easily simulate optical systems that contain imaging and non-imaging components, thereby reducing product development time. Designers are able to leverage the industry-leading design, optimization and tolerancing capabilities of CODE V and LightTools to develop a broad range of optical systems with unparalleled speed and accuracy, from augmented reality headsets and head-up displays to smartphone optics and electro-optical imaging systems.

In the iterative design environment, CODE V surface-based models are automatically converted to solid models in LightTools for high-fidelity optical product simulations. Design updates are seamlessly maintained between the products, including all optical properties, receivers and sources. JOYA Team, an optical systems design and engineering firm, has used CODE V and LightTools to design augmented reality systems and tried an early version of the new interoperability between the products.

"CODE V and LightTools each bring enormous value to optical system design, but the improved communication between them in this major software upgrade is a complete game changer," said Olga Resnik, co-founder of JOYA Team. "Design tasks have been simplified. The time required to optimize imaging and non-imaging aspects has been dramatically reduced. The software solutions from Synopsys enable our team to continue delivering next-generation optical innovations to the market."
