Optimization
FRED optimum includes an optimizer allowing you to easily define and run an optimization of your optical system.
Your target functions, called ‚merit functions’, can be chosen in the user-interface or if note yet available be defined by script.
You have the possibility to choose every parameter defined in FRED as variable (for e.g. position of the reflector, reflectance, curvature, refractive index of materials, etc.). The number of allowed variables is unlimited.
