KOJAC is a set of Java classes implementing optical elements and optics laws in order to build and simulate optical systems. It is also aimed at being a demonstrator of optics for educational purposes. Optical systems are composed of objects with defined properties that may be modified by the user through the applet's buttons and scrollbars. Such basic devices are lenses, apertures, interfaces, and may be themselves composite sets of other elements. KOJAC is able to do exact raytracing in 3 dimensions, taking into account the wavelength of the rays, and simulating real materials.
