How To Install opticalraytracer on Kali Linux

In this tutorial we learn how to install opticalraytracer on Kali Linux. opticalraytracer is Virtual lens/mirror design workshop

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install opticalraytracer on Kali Linux.

What is opticalraytracer

opticalraytracer is:

OpticalRayTracer is an application that analyzes systems of lenses and mirrors. It uses optical principles and a virtual optical bench to predict the behavior of many kinds of ordinary and exotic lens types as well as flat and curved mirrors. OpticalRayTracer includes an advanced, easy-to-use interface that allows the user to rearrange the optical configuration by dragging objects around using the mouse.

OpticalRayTracer fully analyzes lens optical properties, including refraction and dispersion. The dispersion display uses color-coded light beams to simplify interpretation of the results.

OpticalRayTracer allows the creation of mirrors, flat and curved. In modern optical designs, mirrors often produce better results than lenses, for example in astronomical instruments. Such instruments can be roughed out in OpticalRayTracer’s virtual workbench.

There are three methods to install opticalraytracer on Kali Linux. We can use apt-get, apt and aptitude. In the following sections we will describe each method. You can choose one of them.

Install opticalraytracer Using apt-get

Update apt database with apt-get using the following command.
