Smarter EO/IR Sensor Design: From Physics to Performance with Ansys Optics

  • Presented by: Paschalis Dompoudis, Application Engineer, Simtec
  • Date & Time: Friday, October 10, 2025 – 14:00 CET

Electro-Optical Infrared (EOIR) sensing is crucial for defense, aerospace, and autonomous systems. But real-world performance depends on many physics: optics, heat, flow, materials, and environment.

This session shows how Ansys Optics brings them together into a single multiphysics workflow, simulating IR signatures, sensor behavior, and system-level performance.

What You’ll Learn:

  • What EOIR sensing is and why it matters
  • How multiphysics workflows improve accuracy and reduce prototyping
  • Simulate the full EOIR chain digitally
  • Use cases in defense, aerospace, autonomous vehicles

Practical Insight:

Simulating EOIR systems digitally helps reduce cost, risk, and time-to-deployment.
