Modeling the Impact of Stray Light on the Imaging Performance of a Smartphone Camera System - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

In general, stray light means light that does not enter the system through a designed path before reaching the image plane and degrading the intended image.

Even if the optical performance of a system is well designed, there may be some unwanted ‘stray’ light on the image plane. In a low-cost consumer camera, this stray light may be only a minor issue, but in more complex camera systems, it can result in a costly loss of data that dramatically effects the system’s performance. This makes it essential to investigate the understanding and effect of stray light on performance before a physical prototype is created. In this webinar we will review the effects of straylight on a smartphone camera system.  

Furthermore, we will introduce a method to analyze stray light from optomechanical components and how to design or modify them. Finding out and mitigate the paths taken by this unwanted light is the most critical part of stray light analysis.

The Ansys Optics Solution provides a streamlined workflow performing straylight analysis on a complete camera system.

We will be focusing on steps 2-4 of the workflow specific to Ansys Speos including: 

- An introduction to stray light analysis concepts 

- New “Zemax Importer tool” capabilities 

- A demonstration of Ansys Speos features including GPU Compute, light expert (LXP), sequence detection.
