Samenvatting
Designing freeform optical surfaces that control the redistribution of light from a particular source distribution to a target irradiance poses challenging problems in the field of illumination optics. There exists a wide variety of strategies in academia and industry, and there is an interesting link with optimal transport theory. Many freeform optical design problems can be formulated as a generalized Monge-Ampère equation. In this paper, we consider the design of a single freeform lens that converts the light from an ideal point source into a far-field target. We derive the generalized Monge-Ampère equation and numerically solve it using a generalized least-squares algorithm. The algorithm first computes the optical map and subsequently constructs the optical surface. We show that the numerical algorithm is capable of computing a lens surface that produces a projection of a painting on a screen in the far field.
