RUST – Not just for programmers
Rust offers an interesting language option for optics and physics modeling. Take a look why Rust may be an option for you

It’s Quiet, For a Reason
Working on It You may have noticed the blog’s been a little quiet lately—that’s focus, not neglect. At Senslogic we live by…

CAD - Das ist nicht nur etwas für Mechaniker
Introduction – Redefining CAD When most people hear “CAD,” they think of 3D mechanical design software, like SolidWorks, AutoCAD or CATIA. It’s…
Interferometer - oder - Wellenfrontsensor
Technology is developing, and so are wavefront sensors. Among notable improvements has been wavefront sampling density. Examples of such sensors are the…

EUV und der Stand der Lithografie
High-End Optical Lithography, what’s it all about EUV lithography feels like science fiction made real: mirrors with atom-level smoothness, light generated from…

Physikalische Optik auf dem Nvidia-GPU
Intro For most of my career in optics, I have been simulating imaging of spatial light modulators, and mostly, SLMs illuminated with…
