Usage of Parameter Run

Abstract

For a given optical system, it is helpful to check its performance by controlling and varying selected parameters. VirtualLab Fusion provides a fully flexible and computationally efficient (via parallelization) Parameter Run, which enables the user specify different manners of parameter variations. As an example, it can be used for the tolerance analysis with respect to any system parameters under investigation. The analysis result can be visualized in different ways, such as single numbers, graphs, or even animations.

Application of the Programmable Mode of a Parameter Run

In VirtualLab, the variation of parameters in an optical system is freely customizable using the programmable mode of the Parameter Run feature. We use a specific example to illustrate the application of this programmable mode.
