Programming an Anamorphic Surface
Abstract
The Programmable Interface in VirtualLab Fusion enables the definition of customized freeform surfaces. This example shows how to define an anamorphic surface as a height function, and especially with the surface gradient analytically given as well. Surface specification parameters, like conical constant, curvature, and polynomial coefficients values, are all customizable for the user.
