Where Vision Meets Precision: Optical Simulation Software and Consulting

CBS Europe proudly serves as the exclusive distributor for Photon Engineering's software products throughout Europe (excluding Spain, Portugal, and BeNeLux). 

FRED Optical Engineering Software has empowered numerous users worldwide to effectively simulate the propagation of light through various opto-mechanical systems with remarkable precision using raytracing. FRED's versatility extends to applications such as stray light analysis, virtual prototyping, laser beam propagation, illumination system design, and much more.

FREDmpc represents the latest addition to the FRED suite. This cutting-edge software enables raytracing and analysis to be carried out on GPU boards, delivering radiometrically precise optomechanical analysis at speeds orders of magnitude faster than conventional multi-threaded CPU-based software.
