Neural-network methods for two-dimensional finite-source reflector design
Roel Hacking, Lisa Kusch, Koondanibha Mitra +2
We address the inverse problem of designing two-dimensional reflectors that transform light from a finite, extended source into a prescribed far-field distribution. The reflector h…
An inverse design method for generalized zero-étendue sources and two targets
Pieter Braam, Jan ten Thije Boonkkamp, Martijn Anthonissen +3
We present an inverse method to compute freeform optical surfaces that transform a light distribution, parameterized by two source planes, into two separate target distributions. T…
Design of a three-dimensional parallel-to-point imaging system based on inverse methods
Sanjana Verma, Lisa Kusch, Koondanibha Mitra +3
We present an inverse method for designing a three-dimensional imaging system comprising of freeform optical surfaces. We impose an imaging condition on the optical map and combine…
An Inverse Method for the Design of Freeform Double-Reflector Imaging Systems
Sanjana Verma, Lisa Kusch, Martijn J. H. Anthonissen +2
We propose an inverse method to design two-dimensional freeform imaging systems. We present the mathematical model to design a parallel-to-point double-reflector imaging system usi…
Inverse freeform design of a parallel-to-two-target reflector system
Pieter Braam, Jan ten Thije Boonkkamp, Martijn Anthonissen +3
We present an inverse method for transforming a given parallel light emittance to two light distributions at different parallel target planes using two freeform reflectors. The ref…
Inverse methods for freeform optical design
J. H. M. ten Thije Boonkkamp, K. Mitra, M. J. H. Anthonissen +3
We present a systematic derivation of three mathematical models of increasing complexity for optical design, based on Hamilton's characteristic functions and conservation of lumino…
