Ray Tracing and ATMOS

For those who enjoy optics, there is a new optical design group at:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ATM_Optics_Software/

This will center on the use of ATMOS (ATM Optical design and analysis
Software). It is a place to swap ideas and questions about ray tracing,
optics and optical design and the ATMOS software.

For those who haven't tried ATMOS, it is a very powerful package, including
optimizing a design, tracing up to 30,000 rays at 6 wavelengths, outputs to
Aberrator software, Schott and Ohara glass catalogs and roughly 1.2475
zillion output graphs, all of which make sense. I have no connection to the
software, but it is fun to play with while learning more about optics. (I
have no connection to the software, other than enjoying it)

I invite you to the world of optical design, it's fun!
