Inverse Simulation

The Inverse Simulation allows you to propagate a large number of rays from a camera or a sensor to the sources through an optical system.

This section contains the following topics:

Creating an Inverse Simulation
The Inverse Simulation allows you to reverse the light trajectory direction. The propagation is done from the sensors to the sources. It is useful when needing to analyze optical systems where the sensors are small and the sources are diffuse.
Adjusting Inverse Simulation Settings
This page describes the simulation settings that you can adjust to customize your inverse simulation.
Calculation Properties
The following section describes the propagation settings for both the Monte Carlo and Deterministic algorithms.
Dynamic Inverse Simulation
A dynamic Inverse simulation allows a Camera sensor to capture dynamic scenes with related effects such as rolling shutter, motion blur, or LED flickering.
