The OSLO software is used by scientists and engineers to design lenses, reflectors, optical instruments, laser collimators, and illumination systems.
In addition to optical design and analysis, OSLO provides a complete technical software development system including interactive graphics, math, and database libraries.
OSLO provides an integrated software environment that helps complete contemporary optical design.
[8] OSLO is primarily used in the lens design process to determine the optimal sizes and shapes of the components in optical systems.
OSLO has the capability of modeling a wide range of reflective, refractive and diffractive components.
