About QUADOA® Optical CAD

QUADOA® Optical CAD is the first sequential and multi-sequential optical design software for the complete prototyping process of optical systems.
With the main focus on optical simulation, analysis, optimization and tolerancing, QUADOA®'s next-generation optical design software features a wide range of comprehensive optical design capabilities.

Optical design with QUADOA® for a wide range of optical systems

QUADOA® Optical CAD is an ideal tool for simulating, optimizing, and analyzing many optical systems. It helps reduce development time and tackle even the most complex design challenges. With support for various physical methods - such as polarization ray tracing and wave optical propagation - it offers the right approach for any application. QUADOA®'s Multi-Sequential Raytracing, is unlocking a completely new range of analysis functions and design options that go far beyond the capabilities of traditional optical design tools. Its object-based architecture is a true game-changer for designing off-axis systems, and its highly flexible, modular approach allows for the definition of nearly any optical surface or element - including the optimization of aspheres, freeform surfaces, diffractive optics, GRIN lenses, and more. Additionally, it supports ghost and tolerance analysis, including the simulation of local surface defects and material inhomogeneities.
Powerful optimization algorithms make it possible to optimize any parameter of the optical system in order to find a solution for even the most complex design problems.
Multi-sequential raytracing opens up a new range of design options and analysis features.
Physical Methods: Besides classical Raytracing QUADOA® fully supports Polarization Raytracing as well as Wave Optical Propagation.
Simulation capabilities: A nearly unlimited range of surface types including Aspheres, Free-Form surfaces, Arrays, Phase functions, local surface defects as well as Birefringent materials, GRIN lenses or material inhomogenities can be simulated.
Object-based approach enables a modular arrangement of lenses and assemblies.
Full bi-directional compatibility with mechanical CAD software enables improved opto-mechanical development.
