For an effective
functioning of LightWaves01 the high capacity graphic card is needed. It is
important because the software uses the graphic card (or GPU - Graphic Processing Unit) for the parallel
data processing. The minimal needed computer configuration is ….

possible graphic card assortment in the section GPU
LightWaves01 can be started from the
usual optic design Software, familiar for the optic specialists. You can create
your optic system with the standard optic design software you are already
using. As the output you will get the
wave equation approach of laser light propagation through the optic system. However
the parallel data processing will get you results at least 900 times faster as a
usual one core processor computation.
This
Software was initially developed not for the optic designers, but for the using
in the quality inline inspection for the daily optic production. The
calculation algorithms was proven to give the correct results in concern with
diffraction and interferential effects on thousands real measurements of the
laser light propagation in very different optical systems.
