高效照明系统设计与模拟软体LightTools 7.3 正式发行2012.06.14
世界IP半导体设计、验证与制造公司Synopsys公司旗下之光学解决方案部(OSG)发布LightTools 7.3新功能，新增道路照明(Street Lighting Utility)与太阳光源(Solar Source Utility)工具以及光学材质管理器，除了新增的工具外，LightTools7.3版本更可完整支援64位元版本系统，加强操作的容易度与顺畅度。图形显示品质更近乎真实模拟结果，在色彩分析上亦新增两种色彩品质指标CQS与GAI。 Measured BSDF资料也可以更简单进行设定。在应用端的部分，LightTools 7.3 提供更高的设定弹性于萤光粉模拟并同时强化测试点分析工具。
Blu Optics, LLC 公司总裁Blair Unger 先生表示「我们在设计光学系统时会与很多机电工程师、模具制造者或什至其他设计流程中遇到的团队有非常密切的合作关系。LightTools 提供我们一个很好的资讯分享管道让我们可以在符合工作需求时完善我们的设计并加速产品的开发时间。」
Synopsys公司旗下之光学解决方案部George Bayz副总裁兼总经理指出：「我们旨在提供照明设计者一个新颖且更好的方式进行设计，且最后的目标当然是设计出一个具竞争优势的产品。我们相信LightTools 在7.3版本所提供的跳跃式功能的强化可以实现这个梦想。」
| 关于Synopsys OSG
Synopsys 公司为全球知名IP半导体设计、验证与制造大厂，于2010年10月并购Optical Research Associates公司之后正式跨足光学设计领域，成立光学解决方案部继续光学产品CODE V 与LightTools的开发作业。
LightTools is a 3D optical engineering and design software product that supports virtual prototyping, simulation, optimization, and photorealistic renderings of illumination applications. Its unique design and analysis capabilities, combined with ease of use, support for rapid design iterations, and automatic system optimization, help to ensure the delivery of illumination designs according to specifications and schedule.
LightTools is a complete optical design and analysis software product featuring virtual prototyping, simulation, optimization, and photorealistic renderings of precision illumination applications. Its robust 3D modeling technology delivers the inherent accuracy required to simulate ray paths of light as they travel through and within optical elements and mechanical structures. The fully integrated system optimization tool improves the performance of virtually any type of illumination system, dramatically reducing the time required to finalize a design. From LCD displays to vehicle lighting to projector systems, LightTools supports all aspects of illumination design projects.
About Optical Research Associates, Now Part of Synopsys
Optical Research Associates (ORA) is now part of Synopsys, Inc., a world leader in electronic design automation (EDA), supplying the global electronics market with the software, intellectual property (IP) and services used in semiconductor design, verification and manufacturing.
In October 2010, Synopsys acquired ORA, representing Synopsys’ initial move into the optics industry and aligning with the company's strategy to expand its total addressable market into areas that are naturally adjacent to traditional EDA.
With the CODE V and LightTools software products, Synopsys will continue ORA’s long history as one of the world’s leading developers of optical design and analysis software. The Engineering Services group will continue as the largest independent supplier of optical systems design, with more than 4,800 completed projects in imaging, illumination, and optical systems engineering.
