A Python library for simulating optical systems, similar to Zemax.

Optika can be installed using pip:

pip install optika

• Sequential raytrace modeling
• Spherical, conical and toroidal surface sag profiles
• Ruled surfaces, constant, variable, and holographic line spacing
• Circular, rectangular, and polygonal apertures
• multilayer reflectivity and transmissivity
• n-dimensional configurations of the optical system usingnamed-arrays
• uncertainity propagation usingnamed-arrays
