Can Rhino model laser beam refraction paths?

hi Algomez, i just stumbled over a topic here on the forum, i thought it could maybe contribute to your findings

Refraction simulation in Grasshopper

Hello, are there any tools/plugins for Rhinoceros or Grasshopper which I can use for simulation of the refraction through various surfaces and materials? I need to design a transparent cover with the fresnel-like structure which would dissipate the light uniformly in all directions. The only tool I found is the Sonic plugin: The “Bounce” command in Rhinoceros is usefull too, but it is not very flexible… Thanks for your help!
