Protect Your IP with the CODE V Hidden Lens Module

An exciting new capability in CODE V 11.5 supports encryption of proprietary lens information. The Hidden Lens Module (HLM) surface type benefits both lens suppliers and designers.

Analysis and Design with Proprietary Lenses

  • Suppliers: Provide your lens catalog to your customers to use in their optical systems without revealing prescription information. 

  • Designers:  If you’re working with vendors who offer a lens catalog with proprietary prescriptions, the Hidden Lens Module lets you incorporate these lenses into your designs for accurate evaluation and analysis.

  • Share your designs with a client or end user to allow them to evaluate the system performance, while protecting the details of the design prescription. 

 

To learn more about what a Hidden Lens Module can do for you, and how to use them as a lens supplier or lens designer, check out this new three-part video series on the Hidden Lens Module.
