Freeform Optics: Innovations in Custom Optical Design

Sept. 9, 2024
Freeform optics represent a cutting-edge approach to optical design, enabling the creation of complex, non-symmetrical surfaces that precisely control light. These advanced optical components break away from the traditional symmetrical designs, offering a range of unique benefits tailored to modern applications.

What Are Freeform Optics?

Freeform optics are specialized optical components characterized by their non-rotationally symmetric and intricately shaped surfaces. Unlike conventional optics, which typically rely on simple, rotational symmetry, freeform optics are designed with complex surface geometries that allow for precise manipulation of light. These designs can be customized to meet specific needs, such as enhancing image quality, reducing aberrations, and improving the overall performance of optical systems.
