Extended Polynomial Surface



This object is very similar to the Extended Polynomial Lens object. Rather than being a solid, the object is a shell surface with only 1 set of extended asphere coefficients. The object is defined by these parameters:

Parameter # Description Face Name Face #
1 The radial height of the surface. This object supports user defined aperture shapes, see "User defined apertures" . All Faces 0
2 The radius of curvature. All Faces 0
3 The conic constant k. All Faces 0
4-5 Unused. NA NA
6 The normalization radius. All Faces 0
7 The number of extended polynomial terms (up to 242 terms) All Faces 0
8-249 The extended polynomial coefficients. All Faces 0

The reference coordinate is the center of the surface. Face Numbers: All faces Face 0.
