Advanced Simulation of Microlens Arrays

Abstract


Microlens arrays (MLAs) are getting more and more attention in various opical applications, such as digital projectors, optical diffusers, and 3D imaging. VirtualLab Fusion allows to apply an advanced field tracing algorithm to analyze such array elements via a so-called multi-channel concept.

In this tutorial, the configuration and usage of the Microlens Array component are introduced.
