TracePro for Lighting Design Applications Design of application-specific lighting systems involves adherence to various system performance criteria including spatial and angular light output distribution, uniformity, intensity, and spectral characteristics - as well as aesthetic factors such as lit and unlit appearance. Achieving these criteria quickly with a manufacturable and cost effective design requires lighting design software that is powerful, easy-to-use and accurate. TracePro, optical design software , renowned in the scientific community for the accuracy of its simulations, offers lighting designers the confidence that the performance and aesthetics of finished products will concur with the simulated lighting design without costly prototype iterations.

TracePro for Lighting Design

TracePro is a comprehensive, versatile software tool for modeling the propagation of light in imaging and non-imaging opto-mechanical systems which lets to use it as a complex lighting design software.
Models are created by importing from a lens design program or a CAD program or by directly creating the solid geometry in TracePro. Source rays propagate through the model with portions of the flux of each ray allocated for absorption, specular reflection and transmission, fluorescence and scattering. From the model, analyze:

• Light distributions in illumination and imaging systems
• Lumens exiting, absorbing, and incident at the component and system levels
• Candela distributions
• Optical efficiency, luminance and radiance metrics
• Photorealistic rendering
• Fluorescence effects of phosphors
