This application is honestly very wonderful according to what i have tried yet. Rather it's perfectly fit as per it's compact size. Great job. It's helping me a lot to figure out lots of problems. One thing they can add like that, if we want to add some sort material with some refractive index then it could've been possible.

nice app. would be a lot better if there were other types of lenses as well. (bi-concave and plano convex etc. Also, some improvement can be made in the overall graphics and interface.

It is a very good app but it should be added focus point and centre of curvature and pole also please add this it's my humble request.

I downloaded this to test out my idea on increasing the range on infrared sensors. It was helpful.

Keyboard does not disappear after entering lens data so you can't see the ray trace.

If you could include a ray diagram of an actual simple optical device, such as a telescope having one objective and one eyepiece, it would really help me understanding how the app helps analyzing lens configurations. Also, what is a "slab"? Thank you.

About this app

This is Free version of app "Ray Optics Pro".

Ray Optics is a complete simulator and solver for Geometrical optics.
Key Features :-
1) Simulate any ray optics problem.
2) Complete ray diagram
3) Final Image position, height and magnification.
4) Compete step by step solution in great detail. This way you just don't get the final answer but also understand all steps to get that answer. (In Pro Version only)
5) Pinch zoom
6) Save screen-shot

Pro version has following Additional features
1) Step by step solution for your Ray Optics problems.
2) See step-by-step solution. You can also Email or save it to your SD card.
3) In future all new features will be available in this version only.

You can move lens/mirrors by dragging them and see ray diagram and image position in real time.
This will help you to have a clear visualization of Ray Optics concepts.
Also the detailed solution will help you to understand Ray Optics fundamentals and formulas required to solve any problem.
You can also understand concepts of reflection and refraction and their implication in real time.

This will be equally helpful for students studying Geometrical Optics and teachers teaching this topic.
And all other people in love with Physics :)

All Features:
- Geometric optics solver and simulator
- Refraction and reflection with full ray diagram support
- Editable object, lens and mirror properties
Support for
Concave and convex lenses
Concave and convex and Plane mirrors
Glass slabs

- Formation of Virtual and real images
- Under advanced mode, you can even shift principal axis of lens and mirrors. ( for real geeks :D)

GUI Features
- Dragging origin : you can drag around origin.
- Pinch Zoom
- Save screenshot
- See complete solution for problem.

* Based on thin lens equation

==============================================
How to Use:
1) Adding Elements
Click on corresponding button to add that element. This way the element with default parameter will be added.
2) To Modify an Element
Press on element and EditPanel will appear on screen showing current parameters. Now any parameter can be edited by corresponding textFied.
Pressing on delete button (present in bottom right corner) will delete selected element.
3) See Solution
Press on solution button ( present next to help button in top-right corner ).
3) To delete all elements, press Clear from menu.
