About This Webinar
Learn how to design more efficient light pipes, with desired output performance in less time, using virtual prototyping.
In this webinar, attendees will learn how to design better, more efficient light pipes using Lambda Research’s TracePro software.
TracePro is a 3D CAD virtual prototyping program with the horsepower and tools to simulate and design light pipes.
Presenter Michael Gauvin will demonstrate effective methods and detailed procedures for simulating light propagation in a light pipe model, analyzing cross-talk effects, producing desired output objectives, and optimizing models for efficiency and output.
What you'll learn:
How to design light pipes for maximum efficiency and specified angular output
A basic introduction to the physics behind light pipe design
When and when not to use diffuse textures and bulk scatter components to improve design
Tips and Tricks to create better performing light pipes in less time
Who should attend:
Anyone designing light pipes, especially for automotive and avionic displays, industrial manufacturing, consumer electronics applications and medical devices.
