-ATMOS- ATM Optical Design and Analysis Software written by Massimo Riccardi |
|
NEW 8.95 Version FREE !!
My name is Massimo Riccardi I am an
italian Optical Designer and optician .
Many
years ago, after mastering my optical knowledge, I felt the need of a
program capable to perform SpotDiagrams for many wavelengths at the
same time.
So, just for fun, in that period I tried to write a
routine capable to perform such polichromatic Spotdiagrams using the
only programming language I knew: QBASIC.
I did it and I
succeeded and, as it often happens, I felt the need to improve it
again by adding several analysis routines.
It was born the first
version of "ATMOS" (ATM Optical design and analysis
Software).
At that time it was for personal use only.
Then,unsatisfied with DOS & QBASIC capabilities, I chose a
programming language that ran under MS-WINDOWS.
In this way I
could get not only a better program "look" but most of all
a user-friendly interface with many windows, buttons, textboxes where
you can type the data or display the results.
So I rewrote ATMOS
in Visual Basic and added much more analysis routines and useful
telescope design tools.
ATMOS now is a very powerful program with a
user-friendly interface that allows the user to Analyze, Design and
OPTIMIZE Centered/Uncentered optical systems.
AFTER SO MANY YEARS I DECIDED TO GIVE A GIFT TO THE OPTICAL COMMUNITY AND MAKE ATMOS FREE TO DOWNLOAD !!

8.95 Features
ATMOS 8.95 incorporates a wide
range of features :
Systems |
Centered and Uncentered |
ANALYSIS (graphical
and/or tabular)
|
TOOLS
|
TELESCOPE DESIGN
Capability
One of the most useful and
pleasant tool for the ATM is the "Telescope Design"
Menu.
You can easily and quickly design and then analyze about 30
optical configurations:
