Software

OPTIS edits a range of software for the scientific simulation of light and human vision within a Virtual Reality Environment. Its solutions allow designers, ergonomists and engineers to simulate and optimize lighting performance, colors, optical effects, product lit appearance as well as the visibility and legibility of information on Human Machine Interfaces, in a fully-immersive CAD environment.

OPTIS is the only software editor of its kind to offer such a complete solution from optical design, to photometric optimization through to product visualization, making a truly corporate-wide solution.

The Science of light at your fingertips

OPTIS offers you a user friendly, highly intuitive simulation and visualisation tool harnessing the optics, light and human vision knowledge and experience that its team has gained over 20 years and 150 man years.

Increase productivity, streamline your design process

OPTIS is the only company in the world to offer seamless integration of high-performance, physics based light and human vision simulation directly within CATIA V5.
OPTIS delivers the only CAD integrated simulation solutions to provide a single virtual prototyping environment allowing optical and mechanical engineers to perform up-front analysis and product design optimization.

Physically correct simulations for right-first-time decision making

When the data you input is physically measured, the output is guaranteed true-to-life

SPEOS simulations are guaranteed to be the exact reproduction of real-life because the basis for SPEOS simulations are sources, materials and surfaces which have been accurately measured and characterised, either by the manufacturer or by OPTIS latest in-house optical measurement devices, the OMS² and OMS⁴.
OPTIS is not in the business of providing pretty images of future products; We are proud that our software simulation results, being based on physics, are used for real-life decision making in the product development departments of the world’s leading car, aircraft, electronics and lighting manufacturers. Thanks to OPTIS, you can validate your choice of colors, materials, lighting sources because you know that SPEOS results predict the REALITY of your product.

Choose from our extensive measured libraries..

OPTIS simulation software comes with an extensive set of regularly updated and downloadable optical and photometric components libraries. The libraries provide measured data on materials, light sources, and surfaces to achieve unparalleled simulation realism as well as standards libraries to verify design compliance.

...or conduct your own physically-correct measurement campaigns

OPTIS measurement technology is now available to you on a purchase and consulting basis. Thus if the material/source/surface you want to use in your simulation is not available, you can now measure it or have OPTIS measure it, and then import it into your OPTIS software.

Optimize the visibility and readability

What you get is what you will see

Improve safety, driver comfort, operator performance.. all possible using OPTIS unique Visual Ergonomics solutions. Taking into account human vision thanks to a unique eye model, OPTIS Visual Ergonomics applications have been developed in association with world renowned human vision specialists.
They enable ergonomists and designers of cockpits, dashboards and control rooms to ascertain whether and to what degree a reflection or glare will be a nuisance for the system user.
They give a physically correct overview of an entire HMI system with its various lighting components, to check uniformity, color harmony and the readability of visual information.
