and a completely new documentation ecosystem.
What’s New in VirtualLab Fusion 2026.1?
The first major release of the Digital Twin Platform for Light.
VirtualLab Fusion 2026.1 introduces the Optical Digital Twin Hub, a breakthrough in metalens simulation with surrogate models,
and a completely new documentation ecosystem.
Optical Digital Twin Hub
Your central gateway to all sources, components, and detectors. Mix and match verified, simulation-ready twins freely to build complex optical systems in a unified way.
Source Twins – Know how to generate light
Component Twins – Know how to transform light
Detector Twins – Know how to measure light
Metalens Simulation with Surrogate Models
Compute once, use everywhere. A neural network surrogate model is trained once per meta-atom type, replacing days of RCWA calculations with minutes of evaluation. This makes metalens design exploration and system-level validation practical for real-world optical systems.
A New Documentation Ecosystem
The VirtualLab Fusion documentation has been completely rebuilt around the Optical Digital Twin Hub. Find everything you need:
Release Notes – What has changed between versions
Specification Sheets – Twin parameters, usage, and configuration
Tutorials – Step-by-step workflows with practical examples
For a complete list of all new twins, enhancements, and technical details, read the full VirtualLab Fusion 2026.1 Release Notes.
