Automotive manufacturers are under constant pressure to deliver new vehicles in less time and at lower cost.
OPTIS light simulation software is the perfect CAD complement in developing innovative automotive illumination systems that reduce the time and cost of design.
OPTIS software helps you avoid costly mistakes by enabling you to evaluate the visibility and visual comfort of your system before you build expensive prototypes.
The software’s unique physiological human vision model simulates your future product as the human eye will see it in its lit appearance, taking into account angle of view, various ambient light conditions, glare from oncoming headlights, as well as day and night vision.
In addition, OPTIS software is the only light simulation software fully integrated within CATIA V5®, which accelerates the design process typically by 65%.
OPTIS light simulation software enables automotive OEMs and their suppliers to:
Optimize the choice of materials and light sources to improve visibility and readability of controls and screens
Reduce visual obstructions, such as glare, reflections, and ghost images
Design headlamps, taillights, and other lights for performance and esthetics
Test windshield visibility in static and dynamic modes
Visualize what drivers see in outdoor and indoor rear-view mirrors
Render the car exterior in different colors and materials
Virtually validate at all stages of the design process
Verify optical and security standards compliance with a dedicated module
The SPEOS technology is integrated in 3 of the world’s most widely used CAD software : SOLIDWORKS® and CATIA V5® by Dassault Systèmes, and Pro/ENGINEER® by PTC. Learn More ›››
