The aim of the scientific days on freeform surfaces is to bring together all the leading specialists from government, industry, university and laboratories to discuss the latest advances in freeform surface optimization, manufacturing and metrology, as well as the application areas that can benefit from this technology. The workshop contains special sessions addressing both scientific and industrial purpose and an educational session Thursday afternoon with application-oriented presentations.

Confirmed keynote

FORMIDABLE (Freeform Optics Raytracer with Manufacturable Imaging Design cApaBiLitiEs) is an optical design library with differential ray tracing and Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS) optimization capabilities under European Software Community License (ESCL).
