simulation of Hyperboloid mirror

[gpeng628]

hi,
I want to simulate a optical collecting system , it includes ellipitical mirror and hyperboloid mirror .Is there a hyperboloid mirror in the xrt?

Hi,

We didn't need a hyperbolic shape until now. The module xrt/backends/raycing/oes.py implements all our mirror shapes. It has EllipticalMirrorParam class that can be easily modified to make a hyperboloid or a hyperbolic cylinder. The shape is defined in local parametric coordinates that are explained in the class docstrings.

For a hyperbola, we need two parameters to determine it ,one is focal distance ,and the other is the intersection point of the hyperbola and the X-axis. I can't find a parameter that represents the intersection in the xrtqook.

As I said, hyperbolic mirror is not yet implemented.
