SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Interested in developing a lens design system that can produce the best solutions without special considerations or a lot of trial and error? This Spotlight explains the process of lens design optimization with a collection of previously published techniques and new methods inspired by practical design tasks. It also includes guidelines for designers who want to develop their own design codes.
