Disclosed is a hybrid simulator for teaching optics or for training adjustment of an optical device. The hybrid simulator includes at least one dummy optical component physically simulating an optical device, at least one actuator device for generating or simulating an adjustment of the dummy optical component, a sensor configured for detecting an adjustment signal representative of operating the actuator device, a digital processing system including a numerical model for simulating an output numerical optical beam resulting from interaction between an input numerical optical beam and a numerical optical component representing the optical device as a function of the adjustment signal and a display system for displaying a visual signal representative of the output optical beam and/or augmented reality signals.

Hybrid simulator and method for teaching optics or for training adjustment of an optical device

A system () for displaying at least one virtual object includes a secondary screen () for displaying the virtual object, a primary screen (), an optical element for overlaying images displayed on the secondary screen () with images displayed on the primary screen (), and a pointing surface combined with the primary screen () for detecting the contact of one or more physical pointing elements. A device () for manipulating at least one virtual object includes calculation elements for generating images of the virtual object displayed on the system () from information output from the system () in accordance with the actions of the operator ().
