Description

FRED is an all-encompassing software solution designed to model the behavior of light in optomechanical systems through ray tracing techniques. It accommodates both coherent and incoherent light paths and enables users to apply realistic surface characteristics to each system component. Among its notable features are the rapid and precise simulation of a variety of light sources, including lasers, arc lamps, LEDs, ideal emitters, bulbs, and custom ray sets defined by users. The software also includes sophisticated geometry handling, scattering capabilities, optimization tools, scripting options, and graphical utilities, allowing for meticulous control over ray tracing parameters during the simulations. Additionally, it offers extensive post-tracing analysis tools and reports, facilitates real-time visualization and modification of intricate optical and mechanical configurations, and boasts high extensibility through user-generated scripts. Ultimately, FRED serves as a fundamental resource for the effective propagation of light within optomechanical frameworks, making it invaluable for researchers and engineers in the field.
