Very little is explained or shown why you would use specific functions or tools.

Amazingly explained.

By Daewon Kwon on 8/25/2020

This course gives pretty clear introduction on how to use Zemax for Non-Sequential mode ray tracing. Nice course!

By Khaled Hassan on 8/9/2020

Very nice content. Explanation is clear. To the point. Keep going.

By Luis Jordan on 8/8/2020

I wish he explained the concept a little clearer.

By Ivan on 7/26/2020

Well broken down into sections. Makes it easy to go back and frevise how every feature works in Zemax. Overall gives a good introduction to a powerfull software.

By Kamal Abdelsalam on 7/23/2020

One of the best online courses that I attended. The presentation is clear, the examples are very useful and conveying the message and the break-out of the lessons is very logical and to the point. The course also covered most of the needed options for starting working with non-sequential mode in Zemax. I would like to see more examples and projects to apply all the learned topics in a real case, maybe an end project or something. I am also looking forward for more advanced level course including more advanced topics in optical design using Zemax, like aberrations.

This course requires no previous experience in ray optics which suits me
