It takes optical systems such as sophisticated car headlights, telescopes or endoscopes to apply light as a tool, for example to see in the dark, to detect rocks in outer space or stones in a human kidney. As the accuracy of the usage of light tools is increasing rapidly, the quality of optical systems has to follow accordingly. So the process of generating optical systems needs to be optimized to enable the optimum transfer of accuracy and quality to all subsequent entities in the creation process, right from the initial application idea through to final acceptance testing.
