Breault Research Organization: APEX

Breault Research Organization (BRO) offers cutting-edge optical software, engineering services, prototyping, training, and custom software development. With a knowledgeable staff of optical engineers, physicists, and programmers, Fortune 500 companies look to BRO for innovative optical solutions.

Fully integrated into the industry-standard SolidWorks 3D-modeling environment, APEX has been developed for the design and analysis of optical and illumination systems using a simple, easy-to-follow workflow. APEX is a stand-alone application that facilitates and optimizes engineers interactions with optical software tools, such as BROs ASAP kernel technology.

 In APEX, you learn, create, design, and analyze in the same program environment, and that environment is all about ease of use. APEX seamlessly melds the worlds of computer-aided design and optical engineering, resulting in an "optics aware" design application.

In APEX, no CAD restrictions are placed on your optical components. Rather, APEX combines the power of SolidWorks geometry modeling with the rigor and precision needed for virtual prototyping of optical systems. Optical components created in APEX have optical tolerances and blend seamlessly into larger system models, including electrical, mechanical, and other system components.

APEX is an optical engineering application tailor-made to meet the requirements of todays engineering R&D groups, whether big or small, and is opening up new possibilities for the future of optics. Optical and mechanical engineers can finally work side-by-side on the same files. APEX files are SolidWorks files. Experimenting, evaluating, and innovating couldn't be easier. Welcome to APEX.
