Optical analysis software FREDmpc (Fred)
Photon Engineering
The world's only optical engineering software that performs ultra-fast computational processing using GPUs.
FREDmpc was developed to provide developers with the most valuable resource, "time." Optical simulation tools play a crucial role in providing preliminary analysis results in the development of optical systems and products, as well as in forensic analysis used for evaluation in manufacturing and testing. Therefore, whether the software used can produce results more accurately in a shorter time is extremely important for developers. By being over 100 times faster and providing more accurate results than calculations using a CPU, FREDmpc allows developers to spend more time on design.

Detailed information
-
It is possible to reverse-analyze light rays using powerful stray light analysis functions, allowing for flare/ghost analysis due to the influence of the lens and housing. Additionally, there are no restrictions on the number of light rays during analysis, enabling designers to verify the causes at their discretion.

Company information
CBS Japan is the exclusive sales agent for the analysis software "FRED" manufactured by the U.S. company Photon Engineering. The optical engineering software "FRED" is a general-purpose ray tracing software used in a wide range of industries, including aerospace, lighting, laser systems, and biomedical applications. Additionally, in recent years, we have been enhancing our capabilities in fields closely related to geometric optics and wave optics, such as telecommunications and image sensors. To create an environment where we can propose solutions that integrate both fields, we began our operations as the exclusive sales agent for the waveguide analysis software (FDTD, RCWA, FETD methods) manufactured by the UK company Photon Design, which is used in areas such as nanophotonics and fiber optics, starting in April 2020.
