Flexible ray tracing for optics
Project description
OrsayTrace
Orsaytrace is an open source python library for flexible optical simulations in 3D dimensions.
Orsaytrace makes it easy to add elements or transformations sequentially. Multiple shapes can be created using building blocks such as spheres, prisms, parabolas and spatial transformations like rotations or translations.
Data analysis are done by the means of plans, which save photons that cross them during simulation run. Plans are powerful objects and can be instantiated as conditional plans, which guarantees that appended photons possesses a given attribute in a certain range. A plethora of pre build functions are already implemented for photons subset, but users can build their own using all available photon objects.
