Optical Design Workflows & Demos

Watch Paraxial optical design workflows for analysis, optimization, tolerancing, and AI-guided engineering in a GPU-native workspace.

Explore public Paraxial walkthroughs for optical design, AI-guided analysis, optimization, and tolerancing.

Platform Tour: Optical Design and Analysis — Follow a complete introduction to Paraxial, beginning with the website and account access before touring the optical prescription, interactive layouts, and built-in analysis workflows.
AI-Guided Cooke Triplet Analysis — See an AI-guided Cooke triplet workflow move from optical model and performance review through sensitivity ranking, tolerancing, and a one-million-trial Monte Carlo run in this demonstration—connecting design decisions to manufacturing insight.
Optimization: From Merit Function to Improved Design — See how an engineer defines a merit function, selects variables and constraints, runs an optimization, reviews convergence, and saves the improved optical design.
Tolerancing: Sensitivity, Monte Carlo, and Yield — Follow a complete tolerancing workflow from tolerance setup and sensitivity ranking through parameter interactions, GPU-accelerated Monte Carlo analysis, yield, distribution, and field-level results.
