Hello Experts,

I want to run image simulations over an entire dataset of images based on the lens design but image simulations take too long. Is there a way I can do that by using the Huygens PSF and an input image using python (maybe convolution)?

To give a background, I have created 2000 field points and extracted the corresponding PSF as .txt files. These files represent one quadrant of the image plane and can be mirrored to create the spread of PSFs over the entire image plane. Then divide the inpput image into a grid of 8000 blocks and convolve each block in the grid with the corresponding PSF. This could create the output image.
Is there a better way to do it? I ask becuase I am not able to change the settings of the image simulation while using python API and running the simulations automatically.

The goal is to create a large database of images that are output of a certain lens model.

Any recommendations are welcome.

Thanks,

Amit
