NORSAR Software Suite release notes
NORSAR Software Suite 2021 is a major new release featuring new tools and several improvements and bug fixes.
The new cost benefit analysis tool is a systematic approach to estimate a user defined Cost and Benefit function for different illumination maps based on user selected illumination map parameters.
The interactive Shot Direction Tracer is tracing Single Rays in a given model. It is an efficient tool for various purposes like testing the ray behaviour in a given model and visualization of geometrical spreading and shadow zones, to intuitively explain results from workflows like the Interactive Wavefront Tracer, Illumination Maps, Illumination Rays, and others.
NORSAR-2D
• A new integrated Interactive 2D Event Handler is introduced
• An interactive tool to generate general 2D ray codes is now supported in the new NORSAR-2D version.
NORSAR-3D
• A new Cost Benefit function tool is introduced.
• A new integrated Shot Direction Ray Tracer is now supported in NORSAR-3D
MDesign
• New functionality for simulation of DAS helical fiber
