CAD Geometry Update (CAD Connection II)
Thanks to ANSYS SPEOS 2020 R1, update immediately your simulation project with new geometries.
Material & Simulation links are preserved.
Productivity is enhanced for faster analysis & feedback on the new geometry revision.
• Optical geometry
• Analysis
Optical engineer CAD
( SPEOS user ) engineer
• Data import • New data based on

• Optical design optical / styling / packaging /
• Geometry modification manufacturing requirement
( if needed )
• Materials/Sources/Sensors/Sims*
• Simulation
• Data export
*required only for first setup.
After second iteration, they will be automatically updated by CAD-SPEOS associativity.
Texturing and Multi Layered Materials
Volume: orange clear plastic
Material and Textures can now be fully SOP Layer 1: Optical Polished
SOP Layer 2: Iridescent Paint brdf,
designed in ANSYS SPEOS 2020 R1. With texture map + normal map:
ANSYS SPEOS support different kind of

materials :
- uniform materials (mirror, paint)
Texture with alpha
- bump/texture (leather, grained transparency Normal Map
plastic, clothes) SPEOS Simulation

- multi-layer materials (carbon, stickers,
skin, road) VOP: Opaque
SOP Layer 1: Lambertian,
With texture map:
UV Mapping defines the correct
application of a texture image to any
freeform geometry.
OPD Update improvement
1st Design 2nd Design
For each OPD iteration, links to Design change
materials and simulation are kept.
→Faster to run iteration and

optimization is then accessible to
find the best solution.
SPEOS object definition is automatically updated using new geometry.

Selection Behavior
Rule = Select objects ( +ctrl for multi selection )
then click « Validate ».
ANSYS SPEOS 2020R1 introduces a new selection Selecting 400 bodies
behavior to gain performance on selection. 2019R3: 1 min 40 sec
2020R1: only 3 sec
The new selection is highly intuitive
for a better UX.
Smart Selection is possible to select geometries

with same properties :
▪ Same color
▪ Same optical properties
▪ Same size…
Video speed : 300%

Automotive Lighting
SPEOS HPC
Freeform lens
Automatically Generate Optical Surface

considering any freeform surface input.
Freeform lens ensure collimation of light while
keeping style output.
Both optical engineers and Designers are
satisfied.
Application examples
Automotive Headlamp General Lighting Medical Lighting

(projector module)
Light Guide for Indirect Lighting
Light Guide feature supports now “Normal to

Surface” type for light direction.
Normal to Surface is fitted to non-linear Light Guides

for which light extracted by the prisms has a
different direction all along the guide curve.
Application examples
Cupholders, Door lighting, Consumer goods
*Irradiance on PGU in day time

Poly Ellipsoidal Reflector
Poly Ellipsoidal Reflector (PER) is available in ANSYS SPEOS 2020R1.
This feature allows to perform production-level optical design of PER thanks to:
- New surface generation algorithm for smoother curvature transition
- Angular section fitting which enables to tweak reflector using multiple angular sections
→Expert design for Projector Module optimization
0deg section
Add new section for tweaking
« Fitting control planes »

calculates defocus values on
90deg section added angular section.
These defocus values are to keep
shape of PER already created.
Smooth
curvature transition User can use fitting as starting point
of tweaking.
Manufacturing constraints from Optical Design
Consider Manufacturing constraints in Optical Design such as :

▪ Demolding axis and drafting angle for Optical Lens & Surface
▪ Milling radius for LightGuide
Optical Surface -Angular Drafting

Optical design generated is already compatible with industrial process
→Ease communication between teams.
Light Guide - Milling
LABS – Multiple Lamp Comparison
During design process, user often compares photometry of a design
with current generation model, competitor’s model, etc..
SPEOS 2020 R1 allows to compare multiple maps in the same

window.
No need to launch multiple Labs session and have them side-by-

side anymore.
Sensors / Autonomous Driving
Advanced Model for Camera - SPEOS Lens System
SPEOS 2020 R1 adds now the possibility to model :
Variable Entrance Pupil Position (EPP vs pixel position on sensor)
2D distortion (instead of 1D revolution limitation)
2D variable efficiency
Focus Distance & Depth of Field (DoF)

DoF- Disk DoF - Ellipse
Automatic cutoff (especially for fisheye)
Variable Efficiency Cutoff

Variable EPP
2D Distortion
SPEOS Lens System importer
SPEOS Lens System importer ease creation of SPEOS Lens System for camera model.
Convert a SPEOS design or even also Zemax OpticStudio as a simplified model for camera simulation
Visualize key optical characteristics of a Lens system:
- Entrance Pupil Position
- Focus distance
- Divergence
LiDAR Simulation in SPEOS LiDAR Model
SPEOS 2020 R1 adds support of LiDAR sensor simulation

on NX platform :
- LiDAR Sensor to model emitter and receiver
- LiDAR Simulation to consider environment and several
LiDAR.
By considering distortion from outer Lens, LiDAR layout
can be optimized.
Raw signal generated by SPEOS can feed Machine Learning
database for better object detection.

SPEOS Live Preview
Camera sensor available in SPEOS Live Preview
SPEOS Live Preview gives access to camera sensor’s raw view.
Evaluate immediately impact of key camera parameters (Position &
Orientation, Field of View, Resolution, SPEOS Lens System…)
Sensors / Autonomous Driving
ANSYS Common Licensing
ANSYS integration miscellaneous
All SPEOS 2020 R1 products are now using ANSYS Common Licensing.
→For ANSYS SPEOS, a single key will then be required!
From 2020R1 release, SPEOS supports multi-version installation on same

computer (without Code Server Installation).
All SPEOS installer are available from ANSYS Customer portal.
