Excerpts taken from Opto-electronics Report: TUCSON, AZ -- Engineers and managers at optical design software company Breault Reseach Organization (BRO) are finding themselves in starring roles in the new BRO multimedia educational video library. The BRO Multimedia Gallery has more than 55 videos totaling over six hours of richmedia content -- a huge leap forward in helping those interested in optical software get to know the features related to their unique applications.
"With dozens of subject-matter experts in a diverse array of optics fields, BRO was perfectly positioned to be the first optical software provider to provide demonstration and training materials in a rich-media format. Leveraging the expertise of our engineers, we went far beyond the cursory user-interface tour and into the many fields of engineering that intersect with optics," says Michael Stevenson, BRO's director of marketing.
Topics covered in the multimedia video gallery include display design, illumination engineering, imaging systems, geometrical and wave optics, stray light analysis, and more.
The multimedia 'format' lets us do a few things traditional media can't," says BRO's senior graphic designer Tom Madrid. "For starters, it lets us introduce our people to you. You can see and hear from the very engineers and developers that work with ASAP software. It also lets us demonstrate concepts and procedures in a method that goes beyond a step-by-step document or white paper, again by the very people who know the information intimately..."
