Example Designs in KostaCLOUD

Below are a few designs designed in KostaCLOUD to showcase a few of the many capabilities to design illumination systems, lens systems and metrology systems. A few of KostaCLOUD's advanced ray tracing capabilities are showcased.

Reflective Spherical Telescope with Hole in Center

Example

Reflective Telescope

Here we demonstrate a reflective telescope featuring a primary mirror with a hole. This design demonstrates how KostaCLOUD handles obscured systems in a non-sequential imaging environment. 

Aspheric Cell Phone Lens

Example

Aspheric Optical Systems

Above, we showcase a cellphone lens design in KostaCLOUD, exemplifying the design intricacies of aspheric systems.

Mach-Zehnder Interferometer

Example

Mach-Zehnder Interferometer

Here, we present a demonstration of a Mach-Zehnder Interferometer. This allows us to analyze fringe patterns and introduce various optics into the test arm for detailed examination.

4th order stray light ghost image analysis of complex optical lens system

Example

Stray Light Analysis

In this demonstration, we present a wide angle lens. Our focus is on analyzing higher-order ghost reflections stemming from multiple lenses. By understanding these ghost reflections, we can make informed decisions regarding the application of coatings on specific surfaces.

Cooke Triplet with off axis field

Example

Cooke Triplet

The classic Cooke Triplet lens is shown with an off axis field.

Double Gauss Classic Lens system

Example

Double Gauss Lens

The fundamental Double Gauss Lens is shown in this example with an on axis field and an off axis field with a large format.
