LucidShape - Downloads - Demos
Here are some demos and movies, which show you LucidShape in action.
LucidShape demos are presentations which illustrate the main functionalities of LucidShape. These demos can be used as introductory tutorials on different topcis. Applications on main topics like reflector or refractor design or data exchange are also available. These presentations are stored in ShockWave Flash format. One can navigate through this presentation (stop, rewind, back, forward) by using the progress bar tool items.
