Examples
- 10 candela steradian/sq. meter equals 1.4641288433382e-6 watt/sq. cm (at 555 nm)
- 1000 candela steradian/sq. meter converts to 1.4641288433382e-4 watt/sq. cm (at 555 nm)
Common Use Cases
- Evaluating and standardizing indoor lighting levels in offices and classrooms
- Designing and analyzing street and outdoor lighting conditions
- Calibrating photometers and light sources for precise measurements
- Conducting vision science and psychophysics experiments focusing on the 555 nm peak
- Establishing exposure limits and safety standards for 555 nm green optical sources
Tips & Best Practices
- Ensure measurements relate specifically to monochromatic 555 nm light for accurate conversion
- Use the tool for converting photometric data tied to the peak luminous efficiency
- Apply conversions to support lighting design standards and photobiological testing
- Cross-verify results when dealing with non-monochromatic or broadband light sources
Limitations
- Conversion is valid only at the 555 nm wavelength corresponding to peak photopic sensitivity
- Not suitable for wavelengths other than 555 nm or for broad-spectrum illumination
- Assumes monochromatic light; spectral distribution outside 555 nm is not considered
Frequently Asked Questions
- What does candela steradian per square meter measure?
- It measures illuminance and is numerically equal to lux, representing luminous flux per unit area.
- Why is the wavelength 555 nm important for this conversion?
- Because 555 nm is the peak of the photopic luminous-efficiency function, making it the standard reference for visible light measurements.
- Can this converter be used for light sources with mixed wavelengths?
- No, it is designed for monochromatic light at 555 nm and may not provide accurate results for other wavelengths or broad spectra.
