Hi Ian! 

Welcome to the community! For just getting started with OpticStudio, I recommend taking a look at this page: Free Tutorials – Zemax. Our team put together groups of Knowledgebase articles based on a particular subject; each subject is listed on this page. Reaching out to your colleagues on the forums is also a great way to learn! The search bar is global so you can use that to search across all of our resources .

Thank you, I will be looking through the free tutorials and the knowledgebase articles!

Welcome to the community, Ian! We’re happy to have you. What types of applications are you working on?

Hi Alissa,

I am working towards modeling for HUD and AR.
I have been looking into the articles posted on Zemax to learn more about Optic Studio and HUD.

Awesome! We have a ton of resources about HUD and AR. It’s definitely a topic that gets Zemaxers excited. If you run into questions along the way, whether it’s early in your learning or really advanced, complex stuff down the road, we’ll definitely be interested to collab with you.

I should say - it’s not personally my area of expertise, but we have a couple team members who do know a LOT on the subject. I’m more of a business and software all-rounder/generalist. I know a little bit about a lot of things
