Key Software Capabilities

  • Surface textures
  • Lattice structures

Automotive headlight and tail light cover lenses protect the light source and the reflector from soiling and weather conditions. They also deflect, scatter, or focus the light to improve visibility on the road.

In this nTop Live, Samantha Kratky, Application Engineer at nTop, shows you how to design the optics for automotive lenses in nTop. She creates a Design of Experiment (DoE) to identify the optimal surface texturing parameters to preserve light clarity. Watch and learn how to:

  • Control the refraction of light to maximize visibility on the road
  • Customize the lenses to create light values that are unique to your brand
  • Automate the design and development of automotive light lens covers
