Lambda, Brandenburg Release LucidShape 1.6, LucidDrive 1.1
 Littleton,
Massachusetts, February 16, 2007 - Brandenburg GmbH and Lambda Research
Corporation announce availability of LucidShape 1.6 and LucidDrive 1.1, new
release of software for automotive illumination design developed by
Brandenburg GmbH, Germany.
LucidShape 1.6 delivers number of powerful new capabilities and
additions, e.g. a ray history analysis tool enabling the user to backtrack
glare and other problems in the beam patterns, and new LED and lighting
applications. Additionally, LucidShape 1.6 features a CAD integration tool
for CATIA and Rhino enabling an easy and complete transfer of geometries and
lighting properties. Furthermore, LucidShape users will now benefit from a
significant increase in raytracing speed.
LucidDrive 1.1, the night driving simulation tool, supports the analysis
of vehicle headlamps and illumination. New features are colored lights, new
sceneries and scene elements (snow drive and traffic signs). It provides a
user with multi-view drive capability to compare and troubleshoot the
resulting beam patterns. LucidDrive now renders static scenes for vehicles
with multiple lamps (vehicles in agriculture sector). The software features
photo-realistic and texture-based graphics and is using a complex
mathematical model to convert the realistic physical models into graphics.
The LucidDrive's model takes into account surface properties, e.g.
reflectivity of the street pavement and the scenery, e.g. trees, roadside
markers and traffic signs. The photo-realistic appearance is accomplished by
using textures. The software utilizes graphic accelerator hardware (shader).
