FRED Technical Description Page 1 FRED version Technical Description Overview FRED is an advanced, surface-based optical engineering software program capable of simulating the propagation of radiation through virtually any optical/mechanical system. FRED can be applied to a very broad range of applications including but not limited to: illumination systems, lightpipes, reflectors, imaging systems, projection systems, scanners, thermal imaging systems, stray light analyses, laser and interferometric systems, ghost analyses, coherent beam propagation, prototype and experimental system layout, diagnostic analyses, and virtual prototyping. FRED is intended for everyone from the infrequent user to the experienced engineer who faces challenging real-world optical engineering problems. FRED s real-time visualization/editing and advanced user interface produce photo-realistic renderings of optical/mechanical systems with immediate user feedback.
