Overview of

LucidShape is the most powerful and advanced computer aided designing software for lighting design tasks. It's friendly and very extensive user-interface enables engineers from all over the world to create all kinds of reflectors and other lighting applications in very short time. You can create the geometry in 3D with our high-innovative Functional Geometry Capabilities (FunGeo) or import it from almost every CAD program avaiable (e.g. CATIA, Rhino, etc.) via .

You can benefit from a number of light sources in libraries which come along with LucidShape or just build them yourself. Every kind of surface can become a light source. During the development you can test your setup using the interactive raytracing capability of our product, watching the light being reflectected by a surface or refracted by a lens. After finishing your setup, you will be able to perform a fast and accurate Monte Carlo-Raytrace, which results in a light destribution for your product.

If you created an automotive reflector you can test the beam pattern on the road with , our night driver simulation. Take a ride and watch your reflector illuminating the street, signs and trees. You can install different light distributions to drive with, created by low beams, high beams, fog lamps, etc. Even modern AFS (Adaptive Frontlighting Systems) can be simulated. Explore famous Formula 1 racing tracks from all over the world or create your individual testing route, customized for your efforts.

Either innovative LED or lightpipe applications can easily be simulated with LucidShape . Supported by the easily customizable 's user interface any other type of lighting tasks are possible. By using the script language you can set up your own individual pull down menus, own dialog boxes and individual light test tables. You can build a whole new application if you want to! So feel free to test our product and find out how it fits your needs.
