Optical toolbox for Matlab

Dear all,

Does anyone has knowledge about an optical toolbox like Optica ( http://www.opticasoftware.com ).

Goal is to perform optical simulations: ray tracing, PSF, MTF, ...

Best regards, Joeri

Hi,

There is still no toolbox as such but if you know how to edit and develop codes and incorporte as subsystem, then there is very useful website where people share Python based coding for various devices relavent to optical fiber communication, systems and nerworks. Visit the site and help yourself

Best of luck

There is now!

With MATLAB R2026a, we have a new Optical Design and Simulation Library add-on available with the Image Processing Toolbox:

Hi JrV,

There is not a toolbox named Optical. However, there is an ‘interactive simulation toolbox for Optics’ in File Exchange that you could potentially use:

The program you named works with Mathematica, do not know if the one you mentioned is still sold. There are others from same company that work with Mathematica, but not cheap.
